  1. I thought Ipswich were deeply average apart from the left winger who looked lively. He needs a “ quietener “ early in the game next time.
  2. Nope, 11 v 11, 0-0, the full 90 minutes and nobody on a card. Knowing our luck the guy that got sent off today will probably score their winner !
  3. At 1-0 ? Not a chance. If it was 1-0 at 90 minutes they’d still order a replay. As somebody said earlier City were winning an FA Cup tie 6-2 when it was abandoned due to a water logged pitch. They lost the replayed game 3-1.
  4. There was nothing in it for Ipswich to want to play on. A man down and a goal down. So they play several short passes all along the ground to make sure the ref sees the problem. They could have walloped it down field, but they didn’t. They did exactly what I would have done in the same circumstances.
  5. What I call a “ Home End Penalty “. If it happens down the other end it’d be play on.
  6. It’s a bummer but it’s football. The pitch got them out of jail. I was right in line with that last passage of play and the ball just wouldn’t run at all. It had become a lottery and it was highly dangerous in my opinion. So they get to come back and play a full game with it being 0-0, 11 v11, and nobody on a card. “ Some Guys Have All The Luck “.
  7. No way will the club turn down a chance to make more money !
  8. Kargbo was fast asleep. He should have anticipated the ball would stick, but he didn’t,
  9. In the late 1960’s against Charlton. It was called off at halftime when there were obvious pools of standing water on the pitch. We losing 1-0 but we won the replay later thst season. Just before them scoring we got a break down the right wing the ball was crossed in around the penalty spot into a pool of water. Our striker had an almighty swing at it, ( Alan Gilliver ) a gust of wind blew the ball away like a toy yacht. He missed the ball completely, lost his balance, and fell into the pool of water. Everybody in the ground was laughing, all the players, even the ref.
  10. I’m a dinosaur regarding the modern world so I usually have real paper tickets sent out to me by post. The last two times the tickets that I ordered first thing on Tuesday morning and were apparently sent out to me by first class post that evening have failed to arrive. So I’ll be queueing up for replica tickets today. Once, Mm, OK. But twice ?
  11. I’ll be setting off shortly. Let’s hope the pitch holds up. That’s a bit of a worry about Carter. I can’t see it being anything other than a fitness issue, you wouldn’t drop him to play Miller under normal circumstances.
  12. Rhodes ? He’s already here.
  13. All nigh intensity stuff. We’re going to need more physio’s.

  15. It certainly looked that way. I can’t say as I blame him.
  16. Great isn’t it . It’s forecasted to piss down on Saturday. My grandson is coming on the train from Liverpool to meet up with me at the station in town. He’d like to bring a few things with him, like maybe a waterproof coat in his rucksack etc. Not everybody lives around the corner or can drive right to the ground. People coming from a fair way off by public transport need to be able to bring something with them. Just another reason not to bother.
  17. Maybe he thought “ I’m now drinking in the Last Chance Saloon, maybe I better get my finger out “ ?
  18. It sounds like anybody hoping to carry a waterproof coat in their bag just in case is going to be out of luck given the new policy.
  19. He could be infuriating at times but you couldn’t fault his effort. It’ll be interesting to see if they can coach the faults in his game out of him, if they do they’ll have a good player on their hands. He was always going to be a better bet than BBD because his willingness to work 100%.
  20. Mm, get some good reading matter in, thst could be a very long wait.
  21. Another case of playing a player in a position that suits his skill set best. Funny how his new club had it figured out pretty sharpish.
