The lads are all staying together tonight

He can only send out the team he has got and given its limitations a few "straws" and different ideas might make the difference to what league we are playing in next year. Can't see the downside personally, but just my opinion. Also we do seem to be playing with a bit more menace these last few weeks - and scoring goals. Hopefully we will get the win we need.

 

I don't know about the rest of you

But give me my own bed In my own home over any hotel every time.. especially when the opposing team are less than 30 minutes down the road and even less for some

It will be cosy at your place next Friday night .

 

You've also to consider that this is a team he's been left with. He hasn't been able to sign any of his own players, and hasn't had anytime to assess what each player brings without there being a game on the horizon. He took 6 or 7 games to recognise what his best side was, and for the last few games we've seen a fairly unchanged side being named. In those last few games, we've come out fighting. Beating Sheffield United after going behind, coming from behind to draw with Bolton, and going ahead twice against Bristol. The Ipswich result is the only obvious blot on what appears to be a side which has found a bit of fight which was clearly missing just a couple of months ago. I think Jose is doing everything he knows how to try and get a win out of this side. Because let's face it, we are desperate for points, so I don't think clutching at straws is necessarily a bad thing at this stage.
