I do really enjoy that there is no consistency on your post formatting. All Caps, no caps, different sized fonts. It's a good level of trolling, well done.WRICURKINCAM said:Being for the benefit of Covered End Lad, Sam 3110, and Lord Romford, I thought I'd post this for you before signing off.

Always sad to see a troll get a bit of traction on a thread and then overreach and get themselves booted.

I’ve listened to most podcasters who specialise in the championship and they continue to talk about Ipswich like they are prime Barcelona. I don’t think they are actually as strong as they were when they did the double promotion.Redhenry said:

Worryingly, they also disregarded us in every way from being in scrap, insisting we are safe.2 -

I think this is why so many people are concerned about the game on Saturday. We can say it’s Sheff Weds, they haven’t won at home all season, they’ve now broken the record for not winning, but we are going into it off form and potentially not fully aware of how much we could be in the shit if we don’t get a resultEastTerrace said:
True, my Pompey mate was convinced they were gone, but did say they had been playing with vigour and just lacked quality.AllHailTheHen said:Such a bonkers division. Pompey looked shot a few weeks ago then beat 2 of the top 4 in consecutive games. Dont think we can really say any top side should beat one of the bottom sides based on recent games. Still in our hands but it's typical it looks like a high points total this season for whoever gets that 3rd relegation spot.
We similarly lack quality, but haven't seen us play with vigour (bar the odd ten minutes) for ages. I think we'll be relying on other teams having bad results.
Maybe my mood is still just a hangover from being there Saturday, but even with a clear head, the trajectory doesn't look good. I imagine we will be nervous Saturday.
It hasn't been NJ's finest month in charge for sure.
We often get a response from the team when they’ve had a few bad results, but I think fans have every right to be concerned going into Saturday given the cushion we had after Boro and just how poorly we have played since then
I wouldn’t trade our position with any of the teams below us, it’s in our hands, but I can totally get the reactions on here given what’s at stake and the thought of dropping out this division again3 -

Spot on. Saturday needs to be approached like a finalcabbles said:
I think this is why so many people are concerned about the game on Saturday. We can say it’s Sheff Weds, they haven’t won at home all season, they’ve now broken the record for not winning, but we are going into it off form and potentially not fully aware of how much we could be in the shit if we don’t get a resultEastTerrace said:

I'm sure they are very aware. If there was any complacency or feeling that we're safe already I've no doubt Jones will have been drumming that right out.cabbles said:

I do agree that the next game absolutely does need to show a proper response and hopefully something of a statement so we can secure safety with a bit of aplomb instead of scrabbling over the line.3 -
They have spent a lot (around 55m) but they recouped 80m in sales, so in terms of net spend they're somewhere near the bottom.MarcusH26 said:
The amount they've invested in that squad they should have walked it. Got to be an underachievement if they don't get autos and I wouldn't back them in the PlayoffsRedhenry said:

Tip for selected games this week.
Odds of 177/1 for this four-fold.
As ever take care not to bet more than you can afford.
3p yankee (costs 33p) and could pay £13.724 -
We have been brilliant away from home in recent weeks, but in games where we aren't expected to win, so there's no pressure, and we can play to our strengths, which is keeping it tight and nicking a goal, probably from a set piece.
On Saturday, there will be pressure on us as we need the win. Not just for the 3 points, but also to stop the mini slump.
Wednesday by contrast are under no pressure, and have shown they're hard to break down. In many games they've only conceded late, due to wilting under the constant pressure, but that isn't exactly our game. Our passing and attacking threat isn't going to tire them out.6 -
Yes, as professionals and the work ethic Jones demands I would imagine so. I used the words ‘potentially aware’ on the basis that a few weeks ago, the talk was of finishing as high up as possible. There’s nothing wrong with that and I get the sentiment, Jones wanting to ensure we didn’t fizzle out, but subliminally, that can also creep in as we’re safe.thenewbie said:

None of us will know the mood in and around the camp for the last few weeks, but words can dictate behaviours. Emphasising the need to be mathematically safe and keep referring to safety could’ve been a better mantra than finishing as high up the table as possible.
This is just me hypothesizing and I hope that message of safety has been talked about as well, but I’m thinking, did all the talk of finishing as high as possible feature in the mindset of the players recently, which then translated into the run of poor results0 -
I’m not sure about that. I think putting two much pressure on it could be counter productive.ns9 said:

Ipswich were poor last night but they beat Norwich at Carrow road on Saturday and are in 2nd place with a game in hand.
Being 2nd in the Championship is Average ! 🤔
When Ipswich are on their game they play great football which we can only dream about.
Only Coventry with 25 wins have more than the tractor boys with their 21 wins.
CAFC caught them on a poor day at Portman road, hopefully the return at the valley won't matter but the pressure is only on one side at Hillsborough.

Can't get all this betting on our relegation stuff, goes against the grain...9

The assumption is that it's a small consolation prize should the worst actually happen, not people actively hoping we are relegated.eastterrace6168 said:Can't get all this betting on our relegation stuff, goes against the grain...
If we stay up - great, if we go down - shit but at least they made some money.
I've known people back Millwall when we play them, not only because a defeat is largely inevitable, but so you at least profit from the misery.4 -

I feel a bit for Still. Eckert is using essentially his tactics, this kind of system takes a while to bed in, he was fired just before it clicked.
