S-Clarke Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) What a great game that was, much better than the dross we've been putting out. Both teams playing with intent and pace. Puts everything to the last game now, the door has slightly opened ajar again for Leeds. Hull needed a win really, that's them done.

Ipswich will do Huddersfield at home, they’ll just need a point Vs. Cov. If they beat Coventry however, their automatic promotion is inevitable. Bonus if we get Norwich in the play-offs too. WBA could do us a favour and take out Leeds 👀👀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypochondriac Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 At least it means Leeds will be putting a lot of exertion into our game. Hopefully it gives them a few injuries and then they get playoffs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintant Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Much rather watch games like Hull Ipswich than the drab walking/crab football we've produced for long parts of the season. Two sides going hammer and tong for the win, no quarter asked or given, energy, positivity and yes Russ plenty of bravery. That was a good advert for the Championship. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Ipswich now need 4 points from two games against team with nothing to play for, one of them already relegated. Bearing in mind a Leeds win is virtually guarenteed next saturday they are under pressure to get a result at Cov on tuesday night. Lose that and they might miss out on goal difference.

Some of the posters on here said they’re gonna drop off any day now because they can’t see them doing it all season or something. So bloody annoying yet again that it’s been a weekend of promotion chasing teams dropping points and we’re nowhere to be seen when it comes to taking advantage.

SNSUN Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 21 hours ago, HKsaint said: Which team (Ipswich or Leeds) do you want to play against in the playoffs? I think we still have a say, right?! I've said it all season, Leeds have the best attack in the Championship. Summerville, Gnonto, Rutter, Piroe (occasionally), Bamford, Antony, James... Ok they didn't show it at QPR the other night but that attack is, for the most part formidable. There are question marks over their defence but otherwise they should be getting promoted one way or another. Ipswich play well as a team with a few decent players that have played out of their skin this season, and they've beaten us twice, but I'd rather be playing Ipswich in the POff final. I'd be surprised if Ipswich completely bottled autos though even though they drew tonight - they need 4 points from 6 and have Coventry (who have nothing to play for) and relegated Huddersfield left. Not that I can see us getting past the semis with the shambles we are at the moment. Interestingly it seems WBA could miss out on the play-offs completely despite being shoe ins a few games ago. 3 hours ago, S-Clarke said: Everton the turd that just won't flush! Even after being deducted 8 points and losing lots of games, they're still not getting relegated. Jammy bastards. Season after season they seem to survive by the skin of their teeth - OK it was more comfortable this season but then you have a dross bottom 4. Dyche was absolutely the right appointment for them at the time - I still think he'd have been a good appointment for us instead of Nathan Jones last season but there you go.

Holmes_and_Watson Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 "Ipswich need one point! Leeds United need a miracle." If not a miracle, an underperforming Saints team might help them a bit. 🙂 Replacement ref didn't give anything for players falling over. So, a good flowing game. Two very tire teams, with Ipswich carrying some knocks, at the end. But they wanted it forward all the time. Quite controlled about it too. It pushed Coventry back, and made them make some errors in their own box, while on the back foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
