I'm mystified how they are doing so well if that small sample size is anything to go by. You’ve seen approximately 0.53% of their playing time in the league so far this season.

First and second go up, what position out of those you finish in is totally irrelevant. The reward is the same. Build that gap to third place. Worst thing that can happen is a Leeds victory. It’s not gaining a point it’s both sides around us dropping 2 points. That’s why a draw imo would be the best result for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Bristol C. announced it, I spat my cup of tea out when they said they made the decision because they wanted to get promoted this season. I reckon the board will only be one year out with their prediction… but that it will be League One! Seems Pearson fell out with the higher up’s (Brian Tinnion possibly one of them), but he clearly had a close bond with the squad and had them playing for him, so to go from that father like figure trying to get the best out of what he had to a guy fresh out of college wanting to play the new trendy way with players that are not really up to that - it’s no surprise they’re winless in 4! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 12 December 2023 Share Posted 12 December 2023 Leeds need 2.36 PPG to hit 100 points, that's 19 wins and two draws (or 20 wins) from 25 games. Needing to win 4 of every 5 games for the rest of the season is a huge task, tonight was massive. We need 17 wins from 26 games to hit 100 points. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark 'expert' Lawrenson Posted 12 December 2023 Share Posted 12 December 2023 Well done Ipswich again, Leeds losing was huge, beat Millwall and that gap grows ever bigger. Promotion is the goal, winning the championship a bonus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Md9 Posted 12 December 2023 Share Posted 12 December 2023 Happy with that the more us and ipswich win the more the pressure on the teams like Leeds and Southampton will be under a few more like that for Leeds would be lovely. Even better if they miss out in the play offs as well. Fair play to ipswich for keeping up with their form so far. See how they get on once they get a few injuries. Win needed tomorrow now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacking a striker who is mobile and has pace . Our wide men were good but got taken off with Tom Ince coming on which wasn’t a popular move .

shailen Posted 12 December 2023 Share Posted 12 December 2023 Fair play to Ipswich. What a start to the season they've had to go above us given the start we've had. The two best ever starts to a Championship season!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have seven second tier titles, tied with Man City. If we win the league we go clear with the most second tier titles ever. And more silverware of course. Well it matters to me anyway. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clever Fox Posted 12 December 2023 Share Posted 12 December 2023 (edited) 2 hours ago, Pita said: I think Ipswich will struggle later in the season only a small squad a couple of injuries to their starting line up. They will drop points. I think it's inevitable that they will drop quite a few points as the pressures and physicality of the league takes it's toll on their small squad. There is the caveat that they go for broke and throw a heap of money at signings in the upcoming Window.

Popular Post trabuch Posted 12 December 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 12 December 2023 (edited) With regards to Ipswich, this forum is starting to remind me a bit of thefightingcock circa 2015/16. Edited 13 December 2023 by trabuch 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bert Posted 12 December 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 12 December 2023 It would be incredible to win the league. The arrogance of some people on here is grim, we’d have all taken 2nd at the start of the season. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jattdogg Posted 12 December 2023 Share Posted 12 December 2023 Of course i always hope we win it no matter what division we are in. Having said that, promotion is more important so 1st or 2nd are fine with me. If Ipswich win it, goodluck to them they have been playing great football to be where they are currently at. Lot's to play for still, hope we can pull off automatic promotion spot first and then worry about 1st place later. Keep winning by any legal means and that should do it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
