Ipswich Town v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[sirlordbaltimore]

The outpouring of utter mentalness on Twitter post match yesterday was truly something to behold.

It's no wonder we're a laughing stock with other supporters. 7 points from 9 banked, into the next round of the cup and you'd honestly have thought we were rock bottom after 45 games the way some were carrying on on there.

Here's hoping Bruce calls out the panic merchants again if we fail to beat Brentford (as usual) on Weds and really lights their fuses 

He'd be bang on right again of course. It was only about a month ago that were were on the brink of administration ... people really do have short memories these days.

I'm not in the "Bruce out" camp, at least not yet. You've come across as a bit of an arse in that post though, to be honest.

I don't mind that. It's still all true though. You only have to go on Twitter and see it for yourself.

He was awful yesterday.  Since he scored a goal he fancies himself as Peter McParland reborn.

I agree, Brian.
I think he improved  last year as a result of being forced to concentrate by being put on the left instead of coasting as he knew it all.

All in the head. I note with interest that our highly regarded sports psychologist was fucked out during the night of the long knives.

We've scored 7 goals in 3 games so we're doing something right. Defence doesn't sound too hot though.

Didn't we have a similar result last year against Boro where they were down to 10 men for the majority of the match and we failed to take the game to them?

Twitter may not be the oracle ,  We are winning but it isn't pretty and people are allowed to moan .  I don't want Bruce to leave necessarily but the football needs to improve

Disgusted with the result considering they were down to 10 with half an hour left to play. Ipswich with 11 were there for the beating so it’s a poor result. However, get 3 points Wednesday and it won’t seem so bad.

My thoughts exactly. Well said. Not saying everything's perfect but we're not doing too bad.

Disappointed with the result especially when they went down to ten men I thought we should have gone on and claimed the three points but we move on to Wednesday now and hopefully beat Brentford.

The mistake Bruce made yesterday for me was not changing it at half time and possibly catching them off guard. I'd have taken off Elmo (who really shouldn't be a first choice winger now anyway) and put Adomah on the right, shifted Kodjia out wide of the three where he looks more of a threat and played RHM through the middle.

Bruce has never done a sub at half time

Apparently Saturday was only the third time we haven't won a league game after scoring first since the start of last season. Since only drawing with Sheffield United after going ahead in December of last year we have won 23 and drawn 2 out of the the 25 games in which we have scored first.

Yes another tick in the clueless box when odds are overwhelmingly on his side.

Yes a situation he was mostly responsible for.

Their fans came across as quite stupid though, didn't they?
