Defending for that goal are you f@cking serious ? Pato has played too many games trying to sort xisco out and famweo is utter bobbar I don't get where people say he's good ? ...that wasn't even pub league standard !!!

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, square pegs in round holes. He is playing a back 5 with Pato and Delgado as RB & LB. He is playing Gregory & Windass in midfield.
Please show me a team that has 4 players, playing out of position that are successful, oh wait there isn't one.
Middlesbrough who are bottom on Tuesday and then Swansea who are 22nd away next Saturday, I can see two 1-0 defeats coming up, if we are lucky maybe two 0-0 draws.

The more you examine it the worse it gets.
Players out if position, bizarre formation.
Players not in the squad that should probably be, like Gassama.
No wingers on the pitch
One upfront at home
Five at the back at home
Playing out from the back, but only several feet to a defender to then hoof it blindly into Ipswich's midfield.
Countless foul throws
Fletcher... why do we keep giving these absolute failures if footballers a free living?
Let's just bring Jeffers out of the retirement home.
The amount of times Xisco shrugs his shoulders in the post match interview lol
Two weeks to work in all that as well?
Again, the absolute slum that Hillsborough is. Looks the same as when I went frequently in the 90's with the exception of some perfume on the odours and a couple of plasters.
We are about to yoyo but if we go down this time it's going to be for a while I thin

I don't really follow championship games but i saw the cardiff -swansea game and thought they were both absolute dog meat.
There is clearly something wrong where Ipswich have just came up and are a point of the top and you guys are joint bottom ??
RE: The Owls v Ipswich SBC Match Thread - Statesideowl - 17-09-2023
Ipswich have a fine club infrastructure and sensible, competent hierarchy in place.
I'd assume by that alone it isn't a toxic environment for any staff members.
Rotten to the core. But it's from the top down. Not the bottom up.
Where we go from here is anyone's guess
We've seen how ugly it gets when fans protest the owners.
There is no choice anymore. The meetings have stopped. The man stopped listening years ago.
Deaf John is the reason we have come full circle, back to the point Mandaric sold us and with a similar performing squad to that of Teale, Sedgwick. James O'Connor etc etc.
It's time for a complete change of 'leadership' and 'vision'
RE: The Owls v Ipswich SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 17-09-2023
Yep Ipswich have rebooted Hibiscus they put a proper up and coming coach in charge gave him 2 seasons to actually play a style of football , filled there ground back up in the process and it wouldn't surprise like Coventry they will be back in the premiership soon and with a bit more investment maybe they can stabilize like Brentford Bournemouth and Brighton are doing .
Like Owlskev says we will be lucky to get 2 pts from the next 2 games ...I wanted 7pts at the start of play yesterday 3pts will now become a bonus but I tell you what even if we win the next 2 it still only papering over the cracks xisco looks clueless and there is nothing to suggest progress playing this tactic he's playing .

If ever a team looked nailed on for relegation...
RE: The Owls v Ipswich SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 17-09-2023
There's still time to save our season if he sells up .. remember Newcastle ...but he won't so we will get relegated for sure !
