3 away wins and it's still only October. What witchcraft is this? |  |

I’ll take the 3 points but we scraped together a win against the worst team in the league.
2 wins at home and were in the playoffs :) [Post edited 20 Oct 2018 16:57]

Don't see how that was scraped. How many chances did they have? We pretty much bossed the game and had good chances to get several more goals. It wasn't like we were hanging on. That Swansea game - and wouldn't you know it given that I was there - seems to have been an exception recently, having been a clueless performance all round. |  |

I wouldn't say scraped. Scored first, scored second, eased through the 2nd half, without them even having a glimpse. Scraping it is harsh |  |

Before the season, we'd have all said that in order to survive we would have to go to teams like Reading, Bolton and Ipswich and beat them. Its whats keeping us apart from those below us at the moment, now lets start converting a few home games too! UUURRRRSSSS!!! |  |

If we didn’t have such a poor start to the season I reckon we’d be worth at least another 5 points which would have us top 6 six. |  | | |

Another win against weak opposition, albeit after they won at Swansea. International break may have done us a favour. Well done lads, tougher challenges to come!
U Rrrrs |
If we won every game against weak opposition we'd be top six or thereabouts. | | | |

Perhaps could have been more clinical but there was only one team in that game. Good performance, well done all round. |  | | |

Welcome three points, an away win, and only one point behind Brentforlona. | |

Who cares whether the opposition were weak or strong? We got the result.

If you want to look a gift horse in the mouth, that is really the only criticism you can make. There were quite a few times in the match when we just didn't know when to pull the trigger. Fortunately we had the Ipswich keeper and the Ipswich defence to help us out. |  |

Cheer up mate we’re winning away and on the cusp of equalling our total number of away wins from last season.
Bright Osayi-Samuel isn’t a product of our youth academy. Lumley and Eze are so let’s try to look at the positives. |
i admit i sound irrational- but mclarens failure to play BOS really ruined the win for me
we have a relatively big squad, and are giving significant minutes to guys like Cameron, Wells, Hemed and Rangel who will be gone soon. Manning was sent out on loan. Kakay has been dropped since August. Smyth cant even make the bench. BOS put on the single best individual performance against Bristol and has hardly featured. Ilias Chair is nowehere to be seen
we're finishing 12th-18th. in 6 months, this result will not matter. in 2 or 3 years, this match will mean nothing. Yet our so called long term stategy has been chucked out the window
our only viable long term strategy as a club has to be based around developing young players (whether home grown like lumley or not like smyth/eze/BOS) and selling them on for a profit. without parachute payments and with our dwindling attendance, this is the only way we can sustainably succeed
So yes, when we've played the same squad every match and have disgruntled players sitting on the bench, it infuriates me that mclaren left a sub unused
Its not just about winning and losing. Having a long term strategy is about managing personnel, developing players, controlling the dressing room. you're telling me we couldnt have afforded to let BOS get a run out? Hes a young player whose chomping at the bit to get playing time- someone who mclaren said would get a chance- and yet we cant find 20 minutes for him in a game we're controlling?
Guys like Kakay, BOS, Chair are going to lose interest
but hey, im glad cameron got another 90 minutes!
And just as a note: we have a game on tuesday, barely 72 hours from now. Why not give Luongo a bit of rest so he'll be refreshed for Sheff Weds?
Further proving that mclaren is only a coach and has no understanding of man management | | | |

Quite. We don't score a lot, but we have built one of the stingiest defences in the division. Something few would have thought possible back in August. | | | |

I can't believe some of the negativity on this thread.
We were ten times better than Ipswich & outclassed them from the first second till the last.
Yes, we should have won by more, but that win was so comprehensive! | | | |

I think you’re ignoring context. We had an awful start to the season and it was starting to look like a real uphill struggle.
McClaren’s steadied the ship and we’re winning games (away!) which is ultimately his primary job. Plus we have a couple of youngsters starting every game. That’s Lumley’s 4th or 5th clean sheet this season.
BOS will get minutes as the season progresses and so will other youngsters. The main aim for now is getting points on the board and staying safe.
Try to enjoy today’s result, it’s not often we win away!! |  | | |

Your wasting your time , some fans will always find a reason to moan .We have 2 of our youngsters Lumley and Eze now established in the first team and Furlong would be if he hadn’t got injured , yet it’s not enough for some fans .They would rather moan about manning , who couldn’t hold a place down last season being out on loan .Its as if a win doesn’t count unless all 11 players have come through our youth system . | | | |

Incidentally, Manning on the bench for Rotherham today. Came on as a sub late in the game. | | | |

We did not scrape a win. We were closer to running them ragged and should have won 4/5 nil. Someone said the game wasn’t very exciting, well the thirteen hundred and thirty eight pissed up Rangers fans who were there would disagree with you. | |

Glad you were over from the States to see us win away Boston!
Quite a nice day to be sat in the sun in Ipswich. Both at the ground & on the waterfront prior to the match! | | | |
