    The worrying bit for me is the fact we don't seem able to win at home.

    I agree there is still time to rectify the situation but TBH that time is just starting to run out. I wasn't there today so obviously I've no real idea what went on but from 2-0 up and only 8 minutes left and to only come away with a draw is IMO criminal.

    A total collapse. Those players along with those of you who were there must be shellshocked at that result.

    To be fair, it wasn't a total collapse. Ipswich will have been wondering how the hell they found themselves 2-0 down. We scored our second totally against the run of play. The second half we were shocking, again. Pretty much a carbon copy of the first half against Blackburn. Still a lot to play for, but we're going to have a get a LOT better, if we're going to stay up.

    Frimpong back next game - That could be a bonus.
    Blackpool dropping like a stone - But we are not taking advantage of that.
    2 games in hand on Donny - Does not mean we will get 6 points. Maybe get none.
    Charlton struggling - So are we.

    Im increasingly worried that I keep seeing things like this. Not so long ago the same was being said when we had all the "poor teams" at home in the space of a few games.

    We didn't win one of them...

    I'm with Ian without hyperbole the worrying thing is our inability to see out moderate opposition in our home games. If you can't do that things never end well.

    I agree Jack and I keep saying the same thing to anybody that will listen but I am starting to get a little worried that we just don't seem to be able to put a run together. We have to start winning games.
