Hirst equalised. I’m sick of Ipswich but still think they’ll fall away. Leeds losing far more important I think
Leeds lost
Hence this thread started...
Must admit to being surprised that as many goals get scored, because virtually every attack I've seen is pretty fucking shite. Guess the defences are worse...

Gap to third is all that counts.
Ipswich will drop points jan-mar when injuries kick in and their squad depth is exposed.

What Adumass said….. Also BBC reported that Ipswich had made 5 changes for this match from their weekends 2-0 win at Middlesbrough

All sounds reminiscent of a certain team that won The Premier league.....
Injuries/suspensions will kick In.Squad not big enough, Fixture congestion over Xmas, their bubble will burst etc etc

Ipswich will push us all the way. But that won’t matter if we don’t let Leeds catch us up, which I don’t think we will.
Re Hirst. He’s solid at holding up and linking play and he’s reasonable in the air but he’s extremely slow. Ipswich creating plenty this season which is helping him and his 6 is an ok tally for this stage of the season but I don’t see a huge amount in him to think we’ve missed out on a real world beater.

The Leper of the board.
Hopefully we've had ours (smoggies and Leeds)Ipswich will have a big wobble before the end of the season, you mark my words…

The optimistic pessimist
Hopefully we will win tonight but even a draw puts us on 50 points.
P 21 and 50 points.
Even if we had quite a dip in the 2nd half of the season we should still finish in the 90's.
Eg P 25 and 45 Points would give us 95 points.
I can't see us finishing 3rd with that total.
Leeds would need to P 25 and get 55 points to beat us.
Leeds would need something like W 16 D 7 L 2 to get past 95. Not unattainable but difficult.
The league is stacking up with teams fighting to be in the playoffs. They will take points off us all.

Maybe, but there's a big difference between making changes because you can (competition for places) and making changes because you have to (injuries). Players who have to perform to keep a place v players who know they'll get picked because they're the only option play differently.
