Ipswich v QPR | Match Thread

[Acton Stations]

Had a look on their forum, it's comical..... They realise that we are the best possible opposition to be playing, there's not another team in the whole division they'd rather face. They recognise we have injuries to our best players, are "on the beach" and out of form. BUT: They are still shatting themselves.. last 3 games there with us are 0-0, 0-2 and 0-0 and they keep going on about losing to Maidstone in the FA Cup. They are basically tying themselves up in knots over irrelevant nonsense.

So, with that level of nervousness and pressure it's conceivable we could spring a surprise IF we can keep it tight and cagey for 5 minutes and take it from there. However, I suspect they'll be two up by then.....

Ipswich fans ... Be afraid ... Be very, very, afraid ........

Not sure you could pay me to ruin my bank holiday weekend by going to Portman Road so hats off to these soldiers:

Agree Abs lve done my bit for this season and can’t see past a thrashing today. Even if the unbelievable happened not sure that would compensate for so much disappointment again this season. Couple of months therapy now to prepare myself self for next season

In the spirit of fairness to all the teams involved at the top, (and to our travelling fans), we have to give our best in this game. I will feel rather ashamed of us should we not do so. Imagine if we were in Milllwall’s or Middlesbrough’s shoes. What transpires will say a lot about our club.

Ipswich may prove too good anyway but we need to be able to walk off the pitch at the final whistle knowing that we can hold our heads up high, having done the right thing.

This is non negotiable!

Divide loyalties in our house, my wife and daughter are Ipswich supporters, my son and I are Rangers. When I first saw the fixture list I thought we'd both be in the mix, shame it didn't turn out that way for us.
My son has gone up, I just didn't fancy it (I doubt we'll put up much of a fight), I'll enjoy watching it on the TV and watching my wife and daughter be a bag of nerves.

Interesting line up, we seem to have left our regular goal scorers on the beach.

I'm a lifelong QPR fan, but I work in Ipswich and my first game was seeing Rangers play at Portman Rd in '78, so slightly mixed feelings today, I'd be happy to see ITFC promoted, but I really don't want to see us get stuffed, hope we show some fight

Strong line up, but Bennie up front on his own. Kolli not even in the squad.....is he injured or off in the summer?

Where’s the mystery striker? I thought he was close to returning?

something fishy going on there

4 strikers and none of them playing!

1-0

After 2 mins!!!!

[Qpstranger]

Terrible start 1-0, but could easily have be 2-0 down after 5 mins. This could get ugly

[SheepRanger]

2-0 inside 9mins.

Just embarrassing
