I thought the same, saw the players and thought oh good we've stuck with 433... then to my horror!Still don’t get why we didn’t go 433 with the same players:
Wilson
Lats Kitching Binks Dasilva
Eccles Torp Sheaf
Simms Godden Palmer
I get Lats and Kitching aren’t exactly what we want or Simms and Palmer, but at least everyone should know their roles.
It’s not just me - Les Ferdinand for one
When is the replay?
Is it that you agree with Ferdinand that taking the knee is a meaningless gesture without much tougher punishments for racism in football? Or are you just wheeling him out as a convenient example of someone who shares your dislike for players taking the knee, even if it’s for completely different reasons?It’s not just me - Les Ferdinand for one
Yep Ferdinand is saying exactly what palmer and robins are saying. However last night as an opportunity for kaseys team and sheff wed and both sets of fans to support Kasey and say monkey gestures are abhorrent in 2024 at a black manIs it that you agree with Ferdinand that taking the knee is a meaningless gesture without much tougher punishments for racism in football? Or are you just wheeling him out as a convenient example of someone who shares your dislike for players taking the knee, even if it’s for completely different reasons?
Yeah that was a bit puzzling, perhaps it was the imbalance of two left footed centre backs.Still don’t get why we didn’t go 433 with the same players:

Might go and have a look at the Ipswich siteWow reading some of the comments on here you would have thought we have just lost 3-0 to a non league side.
That said a non league side would have had a better pitch.
The Ricoh even with the pests playing there was never that bad.

You do know that it's OK to admit that you're wrong. Much better than looking like an idiot for bringing in world class teams like Manchester City and Barcelona to prove that we should have won yesterday instead of reading what was right in front of your eyes.This conversation that we were playing prime Barcelona is odd. Even Leicester that you are now comparing them to is severly wide of the mark. That team are top of the league (we beat them anyway). It's another odd comparison. SWFC have won 6 games all season.
We take our chances and our goalkeeper does his job and we win that easily. There's many games where the opposition are good and coming away with a point is commendable (see Leeds away). This was not one of those games.
Their form might have gotten better, but they're still in the relegation zone, still played a weakened team, and we still beat them the week before without really getting out of third gear. We're still in the hat but anyone taking this draw as an outright success given the circumstances I just don't understand. We should have beaten them.
It seems there's a few people that can't critique this game, the team, or the manager. It makes them nervous for whatever reason. I would say that category is more applicable to needing a reality check. Someone even said I wanted Robins sacked because I said I thought he got it wrong yesterday. Even you are throwing something in about Allen, of to which I said nothing about.
Lots of clubs get promoted/relegated each season. Only one club wins the FA Cup.whether you’re bothered by the cup or not, and let’s be honest most if not all would take play offs / promotion over an FA cup win I’d imagine, the one good thing about the draw and bringing them back to the CBS is that the club now has a massive opportunity to make a stand and show support to KP
after what’s happened over the last week, in both games, I’d imagine there will still be some media interest - depending on results in other ties we may even get a TV slot, but even if not we can still, as a club and as fans individually, all show up
Losing 2-1 to Maidstone right nowMight go and have a look at the Ipswich site
I have always found this strange as people are ok with 2 right footers at cb.Yeah that was a bit puzzling, perhaps it was the imbalance of two left footed centre backs.

If someone said to me we are not going to get promotion this season but we're going to win the FA Cup I'd be satisfied to say the least. Play in Europe? That was taken away from us in 87.
It’s not just me - Les Ferdinand for one
Do you remember the years we got Promoted and relegated? Do you remember when we won the FA Cup?Fair point, but would playing in Europe bring in as much money as promotion, and even if we got relegated again?
Genuine question, because in my view I would imagine we’d play a few games against teams that would blow us out the water given we wouldn’t have the means to compete, and have a vastly underwhelming time of it all
Do you remember the years we got Promoted and relegated? Do you remember when we won the FA Cup?
We didn't win by default. We were the best side. Not our fault the season ended early. But yes agree with the rest.Well yes to both those questions, particularly the recent play off final(s) (if you also count the Luton game) - probably not so much the year we won the league by default because of Covid, but still a memory none the less

Yes you just looked at the table and saw a team near the bottom. Don't worry think most would have done the same. It's insane how their home form is so different to the away form. This has nothing to do with Barcelona, Manchester City or Leicester City. It was about how they have made their home a fortress. Only 1 defeat since September at home before our games. They won nearly all of them. These facts are undeniable.
Or would you like to explain how their previous 8 home games were 6 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat with 20 goals for and only 6 against when the run of games included teams going for automatic promotion and the playoffs yet you expected us to win both games?
Their away form is awful. That's why they're near the bottom of the table. We've had seasons like that before.
I haven't said they're a good side. Haven't seen anyone say they're a good side. I expect us to win the replay. That's not because of the run we're on. It's because they're useless away. We'll be on a proper football pitch and not a lumpy, bumpy shite surface. We will be able to play our normal passing game.
What makes me happier is we could have beat them at their place twice even though they were on a great home run. They only managed two shots on target. The goal they got was deflected by one of our defenders and was one of the two shots counted as being on target. In their previous 8 home games they were averaging more than 2 goals a game whilst averaging less than a goal a game against.
We didn't win by default. We were the best side. Not our fault the season ended early. But yes agree with the rest.
Never. These games happen but I'll never forget the gut wrenching feeling.Maybe Sutton will drop off the radar now?
Oh dear.I'm really not sure what you are trying to argue about. You're so heads down about this you aren't being reasonable.
You are talking as if we should be delighted with a draw there and that we played someone excellent. This mindset is just totally bizarre to me. You are also the one that used Leicester as a comparison, not me, which was another thing massively wide of the mark Leicester have won 21 games, SWFC have won 6. I don't care if most of them were recently or at home. We were there literally a week ago and won without being very good. We've scored twice as many goals as them too.
SWFC may survive this year but they're still in the relegation zone and it's almost February. Even if they are better at home than away, they're still not very good. They've won 4 home games all season, drawn 3, lost 7.
You're also just making things up to try and win an argument that doesn't mean anything. 'You just looked at the league table'. I didn't. Last post you said that I made a comment about Jamie Allen, and I didn't do that either. As for accepting that I'm wrong, about what exactly? All I've said is that they aren't very good, and that they only got a draw because we basically were a bit sloppy at key parts of the pitch. What part of those things is wrong?
Oh dear.
Point out what I've made up.
We were a much better team than Ipswich are.Maybe Sutton will drop off the radar now?
I have. Just for you. So what part of it isn't the truth?Read the last paragraph again.
