    Ipswich are pretty poor, we should have put these to bed in the first half, its cost us. The defence is a liability.

    On the flip side, we played some good stuff at times.

    They had Waghorn and McGoldrick on the bench. We had Stefan Payne FFS. This team is not capable of competing in this league since quality players have just constantly been sold on.

    Should not have sold Roberts, especially having not sourced a decent replacement first

    I don't want it to sound too knee-jerk, but this is worrying now and we deserve all we get when you look at what we've done to the squad.
    I did genuinely think we'd bounce back today and look like winning, even if it did turn out to be a frustrating draw. To keep Bradshaw and Ugbo apart and go with 1 up front was ludicrous, surely there could have been 2 or 3 goals between them when we were dominating in that first half.

    I suppose Lindsey was supposed to be the replacement, but I think we should replace Angus too.

    Roberts covered a lot for Mcdonald last season. I think we will find this season he's not as good as some people made out!

    haven't been to the game but looking at the stats alone we should have put this one to bed in the first half and had enough chances to get a point at least

    keep the faith it's a long season and we've yet to put out our best 11

    We could always sign another midfielder because our defence is ****, but we will ignore that and carry on...

    I don't know where they get the plans from...

    What makes the clubs plan even worse is that they will still refuse to think we need some experience at the back. Hasn't it become even more obvious today, but they probably won't even entertain the idea.
    I never agreed with the idea that Roberts carried MacD on his shoulders, but now after these games Im starting to wonder if its right.
    I liked the idea of us going with players in their correct positions, like proper wingers out on each wing and proper full backs etc. And it sounded like we dominated even though they had much more possession than us.
    But it was clear yet again today that we can't & won't ever get any joy with just 1 man up front. For me, especially when we are dominating like that, we need more than 1 striker up there I really don't understand what Hecky was thinking of today. And that also is getting worrying as well now, these unexplainable choices hes making with the squad/formation.
