At least he’s scored. Thomas and Kitching our supposed first team CBs are a disgrace.

So you'd be happy to lose 10-1 but hey at least Lati scored!

Allen has filled in admirably, but he's been a total passenger today. Barely touched the ball, only made sideways 5 yard passes when he has, not made a tackle.

Can't wait for Grimes to come in. Be nice to see the holding player actually progress the ball.

Allen’s got Eccles next to him, no coincidence, he’s been our best player, don’t go digging him out

The game in the league was our “free hit” but the game in a cup we are never going to win is the one peole are pissed off by

A disgrace is a bit much but I wouldn’t be upset if both were sold in the summer.

2nd half starting brightly. Crossed the 20 second mark without conceding a penalty.

Agree. He lost the ball in midfield in a key area 20 seconds in for their first goal. Both Eccles and Lati done in by Clarke for the second. Binks plays a suicidal pass for the third. So frustrating. Just put in a damn solid challenge and stand your ground. Is that so hard to ask?

Apparently Lati had a great deal in speaking to Grimes and him signing. Being ex teammates at Swansea. If true, that is probably just about the ONLY good thing Lats has done in a sky blue shirt.

BTA decision making is so frustrating, just move the ball on quickly

Mean scoring today was pretty good

 

[larry_david]

Obikwu scored for Grimsby again

 

[JSL]

No subs at HT. Words fail me

 

[sixfoursix]

Ipswich made 11 changes!

So their reserves are better than our reserves

 

[TomRad85]

It's been bad but tbf, we knew we were going to put out a team that would probably lose and here we are. Didn't have a choice imo.

 

[MalcSB]

They lost Malc, it was an early kick off.

Thanks, I hadn’t noticed that and of course we were a late KO.

 

[MalcSB]

P

So their reserves are better than our reserves

Probably would have expected them to be.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

BTA would struggle with the cocoa cola skills course bronze award . If you know you know

 

[JohnWH]

Saka had a good look in there

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Good effort Saka

Eccles has been miles better (and he heasn't been great)

 

[Chris1987]

This match has done nothing more than confirm that an MVE injury would cause real problems , the high line doesn't work and BTA really isn't up to leading the line. Thankfully our best players are to return but the back up isn't great.

Isn’t it more about the performance, or lack of it?

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Thought that was a penalty

 

[dadgad]

One mistake - agreeing t play Leeds 3days ago…

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Eccles and BTA off Rapha and Bassette on

 

[fatso]

Fuck me Sakamoto did something!

 

[Major Tom]

Eccles and BTA off Rapha and Bassette on

Worth a punt

 

[Great_Expectations]

Sakamoto is fine.

He’s playing right midfield with a RWB behind him so naturally that doesn’t work, plus it’s. RWB who can’t overlap.

He also has a striker who can’t play the lone role ahead of him.

Judge him when he’s had time in his as actual position.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Isn’t it more about the performance, or lack of it?

So you’re suggesting there was a good performance against Leeds?

 

[fernandopartridge]

They're leaving plenty of space for our rwb but we're reluctant to switch play as it is Lati

Bta

 

[Evo1883]

Poor by dasilva ,Excellent by binks , poor by asante

 

[StrettoBoy]

Eccles and BTA off

Bring Wilson and Collins on to tighten up the defence. Play them and Dovin behind the centre backs.

 

[JohnWH]

Ha

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Hirst is such a dirty prick
