PL Ipswich Town (h) post match thread

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Delap was on a mission to crock every City player, did he escape a booking?

He should have had a red 'cos the 'tackle' on Akanji in the first half was led by his elbow. He was very much like that when he played over the road, and occasionally crossed the line that took him into 'plain thuggery'!

Great to see Rico Lewis getting plaudits in the post match thread.
I think he may have dodged a bullet by not being included in the England squad this summer by waistcoat!

A Hulk Hogan style clothesline and he wasn’t even spoken too, talk about biting the hand that fed you

3 goals for the LEAGUE 2 Tap in Merchant!

Savinho excellent and KDB masterful.

Really nice of Txiki and Pep to give Gundo a year off on the beach sipping martinis so he can recharge his batteries!

Hope Kova's fine.. nothing major. Rico was excellent!

Get in!!

I was so pleased that Gundog got on the pitch. A proper welcome back.

This guy.

Exactly.
The man of the Match.
Erling wasn't bad either, nor Savinho.

But, why was Idris Elba moonlighting as a ref?

 

[KS55]

Starting to sound like a broken record now but:

Lewis was absolutely magnificent.

For me, Rico is the best player under 20 in England and is making a case for the best young player in Europe at present, full stop.

He has come an awful long way in the last 18 months. Superb.

Good win. Hardly a competitive game of football though. I actually thought Savinho had a quiet afternoon, particularly in the second half. He was right in front of us and kept rubbing his knee. Maybe still a niggle. Thought everyone played well but Kev, Erling and Rico stood out. Ipswich fans were loud. Sat in 101 I felt like the only one singing. It was very quiet and yet more season ticket holders missing from last season. Hope Kova is ok.

Thought the atmosphere was absolute shite. If it wasn't for the South stand who weren't that great it would have been totally embarrassing. Ipswich fans took the piss and rightly so.The other 3 stands should be ashamed, we're champions for fuck sake.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

There is a guy sitting in a van here wearing a rag shirt and a MAGA hat. Where do I start?

Double ****.

Hope that referee never gets a City game again. Blatant cheat.
Took ages for him to give the penalty, and he ‘missed’ the other 2 or 3.

Doubt he is a cheat.
More incompetent. Looked like he was in awe after coming in as the replacement ref.
Could and should have given a penalty to them and I don't think he was helped out by VAR.
Grealish penalty/diving incident should have led to a penalty to us and thus a rescinding of the yellow card
