The Official "Ipswich Town win the 2014/15 Championship playoffs against Norwich in the final" thread

[TopoftheChops]

First topic message reminder :

This is the most important season in many years for Ipswich. The foundations of the team are there, a few more players need to be purchased, ideally some wingers, a right back and an attacking midfielder. Aaron Cresswell will be sold to raise funds for players in the summer as well as scott loach and paul taylor. SEB won't be staying on. Paul Green, Stephen Hunt and Frazer Richardson are possible free signings in the summer

Likely starting line-up:

Gerken
Hewitt Chambers Berra Mings
New RW Hyam Skuse New LM
Murphy McGoldrick

Good backup to McGoldrick and Murphy tbf.

Exactly Nick, he's backup, he'll be good when we're leading in games

[GSC]

He won't be good.

Because he isn't good. He's very bad

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Normality has been restored as Norwich move above Ipswich in the table. #lookingdownonthescum

Seriously tho gotta be disappointed not to get at least a point from reading with all there injuries

[TopoftheChops]

Christophe Berra baby, Christophe Berra woah

"@ITFC_PlanetBlue: Ticket sales are currently approaching 25,000 at present #itfc"

Not even close to selling out, 2,000 of them are Nodge fans   

Guys always remember Ipswich are a #bigclub #sleepinggiant #history #lolz

[TopoftheChops]

I forget what norwich have won, please remind me

[GSC]

I'm sure we all remember the famous 1961-62 side.

[TopoftheChops]

uefa cup and fa cup come to mind (don't compare to forest)

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

"@Cberra1985: One more day till the big derby! Would be unbelievable if it was a full house #COYB http://t.co/8DSCgT1gMN"


You've even got your players begging the fans     

Here comes the #history #bigclubcoswewonacupagesago #lolz

[TopoftheChops]

ok olly, can see why you're saying this stuff. All that matters is the result tomorrow

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Yeah we gone lose it's fairly inevitable

[NickisBHAFC]

Playing the underdog card   

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

We're not the underdog, we're the favourite I'd say. Which is why I'm less confident cos we never do as well when expected to win

If I had to lay money on it I'd say a draw

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

You boys gonna need some serious injection of something that isn't a journeyman or lump 

No pace or guile barring McGoldrick. You've got weaker in a stronger league. Tough season lays ahead

[TopoftheChops]

Mick is slowly turning this club in a downward spiral, he's getting rid of all the creative players and is leading to no creativity in the team. No goals in 3 of the 5 games this season has suggested that

[GSC]

Well the optimism lasted long

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I really really really hope Ipswich fans lose patience and McCarthy gets sacked

Relegation will be a certainty then!!

[GSC]

Leicester want McGoldrick

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Lol now you're gonna sell your only good player

[TopoftheChops]

League one here we come!

[TopoftheChops]

Berra scoring again, such an asset

[GSC]

Palace want Mings

[TopoftheChops]

Brilliant September for town, 10 from 12 points. We kept McGoldrick and Mings who are both premiership quality and have brought youth into the side e.g. Teddy Bishop. 1 point off the playoffs aswell!!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Tyrone Mings - Premier league quality

Oh the hilarity

[TopoftheChops]

disappointing draws vs forest and blackburn, should really be joint top but still in 6th so not a massive issue

[TopoftheChops]

Daryl Murphy was absolutely awesome again, player of the season and top scorer in the championship with chris Martin. Tyrone Mings continues to prove he's a class above and players like jay tabb, stephen hunt and kevin bru played superbly.

[TopoftheChops]

Joniesta out for a month due to the cynical play from the watford centre back, good time to be injured i guess though

[TopoftheChops]

Yes! Sean st Ledger and noel hunt have signed!!

[Marky]

http://www.crawleytownfc.com/news/article/crawley-town-ipswich-town-anthony-wordsworth-2204286.aspx

So we've signed Anthony Wordsworth on loan from you, any good?

[BlueCoverman]

He was great for us Marky, came through our youth system and made nearly 200 appearances. He got badly injured on his debut for Ipswich, don't think it really worked out for him there after that. I saw him play a lot, wouldn't be surprised if he did really well for you.

TOTC...I see you have signed Freddie Sears our top goalscorer today, any thoughts about that signing?

[Dolphin Ziggler]

I'm chuffed for Freddie, always liked him but he wasn't gonna make it at West Ham. Hope he gets some games and gets the chance to prove himself at Champ level

[TopoftheChops]

I was at the millwall game yesterday and freddie changed the game for us, he gave our team a bit of pace and he ran the channels brilliantly. He gave a great assist for our 3rd goal so i think he could be a great signing for town.

Wordsworth I liked as a player, he's a good passer of the ball and isn't afraid of a tackle or two, league one is probably his level though

[BlueCoverman]

Good to hear that Freddie made an impact on his debut. Enjoyed watching him play during his 3 years with Col U and wish him success in the future. Hope he does well for you

[TopoftheChops]

We have given you jack marriott on loan, he's a young striker with a good goal scoring record hopefully he'll do well for you

[NickisBHAFC]

[westisbest]

Shame, was hoping Ipswich would have won last night.

Still a good chance of going up.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Not the first time a group of men have choked in Brighton

[westisbest]

Chris Hughton working his magic

[NickisBHAFC]

Tbf though I'm really concerned how bad the championship has become. What I've seen of Ipswich on the telly and last night is there very average.

Admittedly they were missing Teddy Bishop and Dave McGoldrick

[TopoftheChops]

Biggest game of the season is upon us, will take a draw tbh

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

NICE EFFORT LADS
