Franco all the time in the world to bend on a cross instead passes it back to Cabango

Given the spend since the summer then you would expect a bit more from things.
Basing our best season since you say on points despite being 16th currently suggests that the league is poor which tells a story in itself.

In fact, I think we were 16th after 35 games last season? I could be wrong but given our spend in the summer then being up by a few more points compared to last season is really clutching at straws for me.

Our spend was peanuts considering the state of the squad in pre season.

2025/26 - 45 points (-3 GD)
2024/25 - 41 points (-9 GD)
2023/24 - 42 points (-11 GD)
2022/23 - 43 points (-5 GD)
2021-22 - 45 points (-12 GD)

So many wrong decision being made when in attacking positions

 

[DJack]

I don’t need to back it up, your actions are doing that for me

You keep telling yourself that champ.

We had something like 15 players to replace!

The only time the whole game we moved it quickly was the disallowed goal

Don’t let facts get in the way of things, we have a narrative to push

At home we are better, we are shockingly bad away from home.

We’ve been decent/competitive and created chances away against Coventry, Stoke, Hull, Millwall (for a half) and won vs Watford. It’s only the last two performances away from home where we just haven’t shown up as a team. We did nothing against Derby and looks similar today. Last two home performances haven’t been great either. For me it’s fatigue, some players have been rinsed, we are missing good depth in key areas.

The difference in willing runners and first time passing into space between Ipswich and us have been night and day

OMG...My irony meter just exploded!

 

[K23]

Don't think we've had one all season?

Didn't Idah score one?

 

[TruckerJack]

OMG...My irony meter just exploded!

You sound annoyed

 

[Bluenile]

Dreadful error by Tymon. Fecking about at the back again. Surely if you're playing away against one of the best teams in the league, you start with your best team. Two games now where Matos has started with weak teams.

We're already on the beach
