It will be interesting to see what reception the team and PD get tonight.
COYR
-
I will be amazed if they get anything other than a solid round of applause when they run out.
What follows will probably depend of which team scores first.
-
I just get the feeling that some of our fans are pre occupied with jumping on the teams back rather than support them, woe be tied the player who makes the first mistake!
-
Agreed..............
-
:sSeconded (or maybe thirded if filo's post counts as the first)
-
Team: Stuckmann, McCullough, Taylor-Sinclair, Jones, Butler, Wellens, Coppinger, Chaplow, Main, Williams, Evina.
Bench: Marosi, Lund, Middleton, Paul McKay, Mandeville, Carberry, Whitehouse.
-
So two changes. Jones and Main for Mackenzie and Middleton. Mackenzie appears to be injured as he's not on the bench.
-
The bench is nothing short of awful,if he has spent all the budget it's either very poor management or the budget is no bigger than last years

Apparently Ikpeazu tore him a new one on Saturday , so he might still be a tad sore. :)

Yep and that's not the way. Not going tonight, the crowd will be telling.
Interesting to see if 442 works. I'm not convinced by it. Who's going to break up play in midfield tonight? That's a worry.
Let's see if we get a reaction.
-

Or perhaps both?.
We're lucky Ipswich aren't putting a first 11 out. Could have been embarrassing.... again.
-

and so it starts..
No indication of the budget at all, for f**k's sake. It has been said the board will back PD if he asks to get a loanee.
It indicates we have a few injuries at present.
What PD does with loanees is not for tonight's game, let's get behind the team eh?

I think like many, your 3/4s full glass is looking half empty to you :laugh:
Leeds were full strength bar Turnbull, Wooton, Daukara and Antonucci promoted from the bench. We owned Leeds, why not similar against a relatively full strength Ipswich?
FWIW there are 4 Ipswich players in their starting 11 tonight who have been in the last two games for them - Gerken, Smith, McGoldrick and Pitman. Emannuel played as sub, and Coke, Tabb and Toure have been on the bench. Their bench tonight contains Crowe, Maitland-Niles, Fraser, Sears who all played in their last two games. Not exactly their youth team is it.
-
Calling our youngsters awful. That's the spirit.
-
It is what it is. Also concerned about the midfield, whether Chaplow and Wellens can see enough of the ball and use it well. The players around them must work their balls off to give them options.
Work hard boys! Show us you can play.
-
Black Bank tonight :scarf:
-
And the West Stand...
-
Player not changed still cuts off
-

Maybe "inexperienced" would've been a better word ! What have any of them done to be dismissed as awful ?
-
Player not changed still cuts off
How many times for you so far? I had about two 10 sec pauses - but then I'm listening via mobile phone.
-
Luke going off injured? Always amazing that there's more injuries when things not going well....
-
McCullough off Lund on
-
When does JPT start,we could do without midweek games at the moment?! :scarf:
-
When you can't catch a break, you really can't catch a break...
-
Get in!!!
-
We need quick games so then when we lose we can't dwell on it and get the reaction
-
Na na na na, na na na na....! Williams opens his account in open play :scarf:
-
Did we just score? Thankfully, I am already sat down... Williams?
-
In the words of PD he'll go on a run of scoring now
-
:bscarf: :bscarf: :bscarf:
-
Just seen the goal - easy!

Sadly all too true Filo, it's always been this way. Our team has always had to play against both the opposition and our own supporters. Embarrassing at times isn't it ?

That's not my point. It is a young and inexperienced bench yes, but you made suppositions about our budget when nothing has been said in public?
I do think even with a fully fit squad we would be short a RB, but now Luke has an injury and two decent forwards are out, and no sign of Keegs or N'Guessan, and how bad is MacKenzie's injury? We need loanees, at least 2 IMHO, by Saturday.
That said, we are winning aren't we?
-
I think there'd have been a lot more posts about the goal if it were for them
-
.....That said, we are winning aren't we?
Looks like we're in the wrong league :laugh:
-
Perhaps Dickov should be a higher league manager and can only beat good teams?
-
Yes were winning mate,I'm not even a pd out but it's a poor bench and I said it's either poor management not to get more senior players or the budget
-
Well taken goal by Williams. He deserves that.
-
Great header
-

It is an inexperienced bench, which you may say is poor for what we should have. The only criticism I have is that we haven't replaced injured players with loanees yet. That's down to the manager - there are no indications coming out of the club about no budget!
Anyway, back to tonight's game...
Great to get a goal from open play, and Williams deserves some reward.
-
Rob Jones replaced, having been seen holding his neck... Let's hope it's precautionary. Whatever your thoughts on PD, he's not the luckiest manager when it comes to injuries...
-
"Off the line by Lund" :boxing:
-
Good to hear even Wellens is in the mindset of having a go on goal - from the halfway line :boxing:
-
"Whitehouse does a ronaldinho flick flack and nutmegs the defender" Feckin kids!
-
Balls.

drfc_official9:03pm via ScribbleLive
58' Ipswich counter and score through Brett Pitman 1-1 #drfc
-
Didn't look good defending at all.
-
1-1 - ah.... we're just toying with them
-
Not great defending but think it was more unfortunate.
-
What's happening ?
-
Extra time. Could have done without it... :scarf:
-
Thanks :scarf:
-
Another draw then lol lets win it in extra time then
-
Middleton to come on
-
I'll be interested to get proper feedback on the quality of our performance tonight, despite the stats and final result.
-
Balls
-
Arse biscuits.
-
Can we do another Leeds ? :scarf:
-
Shite but it was coming. Still time Rovers........ :(
-
Rovers 1 Ipswich 2
McGoldrick - he's had a lot of efforts on target
-
Forget about it. 1-3...
-
That's that then.
-
Never mind. I repeat my previous, want to hear about the performance.
-
3rd goal for Ipswich - looks like curtains
-
Detest McGoldrick............t**t.
-
At least Williams got a goal. But another game without success...
-
Tired legs out there
Gave it everything
Injures have not helped
Ill sit down and talk with the board
Its time for another game of rovers bingo
-
Aye, at the risk of grapes most sour, I'm not bothered about a cup run. Appreciate that there's money to be made and all that, but would rather we focused on the task in hand: the league.
Seem to have played well enough (though it looks like they seriously came into it towards the second half and BFG kept us in it), and we've scored a goal. That'll do me. :scarf:
-
I'm sure he got a reaction...
-
Don't think this game had much of an impact on PD's future, win or lose. Saturday is the main one, lose that and I can't see him being here by Monday
-
Why is it a big problem assuming we lose this game, Ipswich are a top championship side and we took them to ET.
There is no need for excuses if we are beaten by a better side? The issue for me is the performance itself leading up to Saturday.
-
That 3rd goal was v poor to concede :(
-
It's time to get a squad of 20 decent pros not a makeshift team with 4 or 5 games gone,it's ok being little pub team but that should not be the case
-
"I knew I'd get a reaction."
"Ipswich are a top, top team."
-
Their 2nd was a great header - poor marking on the cross
-
It's time to get a squad of 20 decent pros not a makeshift team with 4 or 5 games gone,it's ok being little pub team but that should not be the case
Yet including the 2 tonight, that's 7 decent pros injured at the moment.
Dickov must enter the loan market, immediately.
-
Can we actually shoot on target ?
-
Can we actually shoot on target ?
4 times out of 14, according to the BBC
-
4-1
-
He needed to along time ago but he said he was happy with the squad so I ask again is he happy with it or does he have to make do?
-
Forgot to add
Thats what happens when chasing the game.
-
He needed to along time ago but he said he was happy with the squad so I ask again is he happy with it or does he have to make do?
He can't be happy now, can he? Forrester, Tyson, Mccullough, Jones, MacKenzie, Keegan, N'Guessan all out - Of course he won't be happy :facepalm:
If everyone was fit, or almost fit, yes maybe. But not now, especially Forrester and Tyson. Why do you keep making comment on the budget?
-
Idm as a rule I generally agree with your posts but you seem to defend the club or the manager no matter what,having such a poor bench and not a senior right back at this stage of the season is awful
-
We've too many first choice players out. Just have to plug the gaps with a couple of top class players - I'd say more but there is a limit to how many players we can have. This will cost but without that we will struggle over the next few weeks.
Eeeek! Wellens feeling his hamstring :s
-
Reckon our manager might be looking for a reaction after this.
-
Because most of them were injured and he still said he was happy with what he had, so either there is no money or he is happy what is it?
-
Turned out a poor result. We're so soft and don't have the fight.
-
Where am I defending the manager? Injuries aside, I have always agreed we need a RB, and I say PD MUST get loanees in now.
All I am saying is there has been no comment from the club, or PD, or media speculation about the budget situation.
I'm not worried about tonight's result.
-
Looks like he didn't get a reaction after all.
-
Because most of them were injured and he still said he was happy with what he had, so either there is no money or he is happy what is it?
Or he has made reasonable offers but the asking price is crazy. Or there could be other reasons. Careful with having too narrow a view. I know you know you're just guessing - just saying :)
Tin Pot Cup - focus on the JPT now :scarf:
-
Looks like he didn't get a reaction after all.
Anyone actually at the game able to report how we played, compared to the last 2 games?
-

If having this number of players injured means we're not competitive then we haven't got enough players, and/or we don't have the right staff to keep our players fit and healthy.
We seem to have this every season though?!
-
Sounds like we were good for 90 mins, then fitness told?
-

I'm concerned about this too. I'm not convinced at all that the pitch isn't at least partly responsible.
-
It would seem so, yes BRR:

Important this doesn't turn into a tanking now. Performance hasn't merited that at all. #drfc

Exactly, and not knowing the extent of several injuries this is where we must get more players in, and as soon as possible. What PD does, or doesn't do next, will be very telling.

no but he has said he is happy with what he has,that was with lots of injuries so do u really believe he is?
-
Ipswich just drawn out to visit Old Trafford in the next round
Always the bridesmaid.....
-
Thought we ran out of steam at the end and after going 2-1 down hadn't a clue how to get back into the game.
Williams ran and ran
Stuckmann kept us in it at times, looked as though he thought there second was missing and let it go in.
A lot better performance , which was good to see

no, not now. I have said he must act, several times..
-

4 times out of 14, according to the BBC
I looked on the bbc website to check the stats and of the L1 and L2 clubs playing last night only Notts County with 6 had more shots on target than us.
-
What is needed is clinical finishing and/or creating good chances.
It must be better to convert two goals from two on target than say have a dozen on target and score none.
