Another round of games where Ipswich, Southend and Colchester all managed to lose! - I've got a sneaky feeling we're going to see a repeat of this quite a few times in the season to come. I still fancy it's gonna be a lloooooonnnnggggggg season for the Suffolk faithful.

You forgot Sunderland.

Yep....really thought we'd steer clear of trouble this season, but I think for the first time in 50 years, we could be in danger of dropping into the old division 3.

[Shiny_Bottom_1]

I do actually think that Ipswich (at least in a past tense) were a good side. However, i'm seeing a similar pattern to what happened to Forest.
Build up a good side, then sell your best players, hoping that perhaps your youth team can deliver the goods for the future.
It is a real shame, as alot of good sides have gone down that avenue.

Needless to say, i'm sure yesterday was a disappointment OON, but (although I ribbed), Leicester are one of the better sides in the division too (and you were playing away, which is often a disadvantage)

[Osbourne One-Nil]

But they're not...Leicester are rubbish.

We were 5th in the Premier league a few years ago....we won the FA Youth Cup a couple of years back....we get 25,000 a week. We shouldn't be struggling.

Sheepshanks will see that we keep on struggling - I want you OON to start a huge NW protest to get him out!

[WindWatcher]

We were very lucky today, having Leeds down to 10 men obviously helped. I can't see our 100% record staying for long unless we find some better form. But for now I am just enjoying being top of the league! Come on Palace!

[Kent Snow]

I'm obviously hoping for Southend to stay up but I think its going to be a big struggle.

Although two away games at Palace and QPR are tough fixtures.

[Kent Snow]

Very pleasing win for the Shrimpers over Sunderland today. 3-1 being the final scoreline.

2 wins from 2 at home, 2 defeats from 2 away.

[i luv snow]

well Ipswich are still goign well i see.......haha......

[Osbourne One-Nil]

Here we go...scraping home draws with the likes of Hull and sub 20,000 crowds.

Sheepshanks OUT.

[Michael Fishermans Friend]

Sheepshanks OUT! OUT OUT! at least we're up and running with a useful point! and not on the bottom any more, and we're on Sky on Friday night and with Ipswich's recent record on the box we will be back down in 24th spot come Saturday at 4.50pm! lol!

[rob-lancs]

First defeat of the season for us. At least Plymouth are still beneath us.

[Thundery wintry showers]

Sunderland will do well not to drop another division at this rate, they are doing as badly as they were in the Premiership!

Sunderland's new manager looks like being ROY KEANE!
Just seen this on teletext.
I don't support Sunderland BTW Newcastle actually

Happy to see Chelsea beaten tonight

[stormchaser1]

Morning everyone
Well what a kick in the teeth for Sunderland .REF kevin Phillips signed for West Brom a couple of days ago for 700k , also Regarding Jason Koumas , ive always rated this player ,but he had a fall out with Gary Megson whilst he was in charge and they off loaded him to Cardiff City on loan ,unfortunately again Koumas has hopefully sorted his differances out with the west brom board and he has now signed a three year deal for the club ,
as you prob gathered i am a west brom supporter have been for over 40years ,and even though i am now living in Newcastle i still follow west brom ,i still go to games at the Hawthorns ,but not as many as i would like to ,,reason being ,expensive now ,and it takes around 3hours to get to brum and 3 hours back ,prob longer The wife has tryed to convert me to being a Toon fan but to no avail ....

OON : have you recovered from tonight's result yet?

[Osbourne One-Nil]

Premier League here we come

[Michael Fishermans Friend]

I concur OON! Ipswich fully deserved the 3 points last night against QPR although I have to say the penalty decision looked dubious, but uptil then Ipswich had more opportunities to score. Infact I don't think the Ipswich squad is that bad and considering the age of the squad and that Garvan and Westlake were both not playing I think there might be some light at the end of the tunnel.
The performances of Clarke, Williams and Bruce were all good, and before this I was starting to worry if Ipswich might have a battle on their hands to stave off relegation but after seeing the game I should think they'll be ok and it's just a case of getting some consistancy going and possibly a brighter future!
