That final piece to help star players like Chaplin and Morsy. He wasn't playing against Cheltenham where they drew. Plus, no other player in that team would have scored the free kick he did against us to get them back into a game they were heading to lose Yes he's certainly had a similar impact to Antonio. The Ipswich left back they got from Leeds looks half decent as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkowlthesexynewversion Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 The fact in the last 2 games Ipswich have not just won, but won convincingly away from home v teams in the top 7, means you have to give them credit. Well the fans are still ***** but what grinds my shit is that they are the type of side I frankly wished Wednesday had evolved to. A young side playing decent attractive attacking football, with a up coming intelligent manager, sensibly run off the field as well. Which means they have a fairly decent chance of taking that base into the Championship. I hate the short termism that envelopes everything to do with our set up. No real plan off it, no identity off it. Irrespective of where we end up another summer of mass recruitment beckons. We are unlucky that this season 3 other sides including Barnsley in that have been exceptional, but actually the failure is endemic. Failure at the top of the Club leads to failure on the pitch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Moore will go for his strongest side this week v Shrewsbury. Whilst we are still in with a theoretical chance he has to. The talk of resting players, well there is a week between every subsequent game so its not really needed. And I think in terms of our favourite word momentum it can be counter productive and indeed back fire We all can guess what happens anyway, we lose to Derby then get knocked out by them in the play offs We knock Derby out then get beat by Peterborough anyway The Wednesday way .......

Been told he'd need at least 10 days of complete rest if he's to be effective over 90 minutes. Also been told that Bannan isn't far behind. So we either give them the rest they need in order to get the best out of them or we spend a shed load on an oxygen tank or we run them into the ground in the hope they last out.

EastCraigsOwl Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Aside from some nice football, it's been a dreadful spectacle from a 'falling over' point of view. KDB, Grealish, Haaland and Walker couldn't wait to go down on feeling the slightest brush. Xhaka and PartB among the Arsenal skirts. Stay up. Stay strong. Play on. Even more pathetic is the hypocrisy of the home fans (haven't heard too much from the away end until the last few minutes). The ref gets conned and gives Arsenal a free kick. City fans boo and burst into a chorus of "you're not fit to referee", whilst deliberately failing to call out their own side's cheating. Football's fucked. Well and truly fucked.

I know what you mean, there is a lot of fannying about in the Prem. But, ‘nice’ to see VAR not working as it should again. As much as I detest Arsenal they should have had a pen off Haaland. He had his arms by his side to block a shot, but leaned into it, deliberately and used his upper arm. It was dismissed by the officials, all of them, and the commentators never even considered it as a pen. Or have the rules changed meaning ‘arm ball’ is ok?
