    Must win game for us vs the Massives. Anything less will be a disaster down the line potentially.
    It’s must win as it’s our 1 and only home match in October. 3 tough away games. The fixtures computer has been harsh on us

    But then in November we have a run of 3 out of 4 at home.

    With their tiny squad, it would have been a miracle if Wednesday stayed up anyway. 
    Unbeaten in 3 though and i think they're definitely doing better than most people expected.

    That said, i'd be quite surprised if they don't lose all of their next 3 games.
    And yet they are still second bottom.

    Can't see anything but them going down, points deduction or not.

    Possible 15 points deduction 
    Good, now just give one to Hull and Oxford and I think that'll be about fair

    6 (SIX) embargoes for Wednesday now

    Theyve got as many embargoes as points. What a shitshow.

    Don’t think they’ll stay up, even without a points deduction but if they do and send someone else down, it will be nothing short of a disgrace.

    Are they allowed to replace players though?  6 embargoes is 3 years. Most players currently under contract will be out of contract I would have thought in 2-3 years time. Could be very messy if they weren't allowed to sign ANY players.

    I believe it’s only free agents up to a nominal contract value. Slightly different for extending contracts.

    They're allowed loans as well. Their keeper is on loan and they have a full back from Man U.

    Followed by 2 away games in the last week of November, making 3 home and 3 away games in the month.

    Yes but the point being you can cherry pick any run of fixtures throughout the season to make it look decent or a bit tricky. For example both of our christmas games are away (tricky) but then 3 of our first 4 games in January are at home (decent).

    And January is when we finally make up the deficit of home games to away games.

    Actually, I'll change that to the first week in April that it finally evens out.

    It evens out after our next game lol.

    My point is, atm it would have really suited us to have a run of home games as we had momentum. Potentially looking at 3 away defeats on the bounce. It us why the massive is such an important game to win.

    Why so pessimistic, when we have such a great record at Portman Road recently?

    How many of our current players played the last time we met Ipswich at Portman Road ? What relevance is our past record anyway. Never understood these type of comments.

    Wednesday fans are planning a complete boycott of their next home game (v Middlesbrough). It'll be interesting to see how many ST holders adhere to the boycott plans.

    I saw a blog of the Coventry game and there could only have been 10k there.
    They have around 17k season ticket holders.
    The game is on Sky so this is a great game to see how many fans are prepared to not go.
