Need to put one of these chances away

[Bombers right foot]

No wonder we got shot of OShea and Kipre, both having Mares, Furlong not much better with his dark arts either

[Omegstrat6]

We've been the better team first half and credit to all of the players for both battling and going for it. Some nice flowing football at times too but we need to put our chances away and doubtless Ipswich will come out after the break with far more intent after their manager has had his say so we need to be mindful of that.

3 points would be brilliant and we are obviously intent on getting it but it's important that we get at least one to categorically ensure safety today.

Bog standard average. Imray so much better than Furlong

Need Maja on for Heggebo!

Should be two penalties both committed by Furlong - one a hand ball and then pulling Molumby back!

He was lucky but tbh, in the handball case he was making an effort to keep his arms away and for the second, full credit to Molumby for pushing through but with 3 on him he was already stumbling so the ref's decision looked to correct for me.

As for Maja, I think we will see him on soon but both Heggabo and Dike's physicality is causing Ipswich problems so understood why Morrison chose not to start him. He's likely be sharper in front of goal than Heggabo though.

Bit lucky then with the offside with Kipre!

[Omegstrat6]

Maja on For Dike rather than Heggabo but maybe Dike's yellow card played some part in that decision.

[Omegstrat6]

Ipswich coming into this more now after their subs but Grant on For Mowatt which is a sign of attacking intent from Morrison. I think Mowatt has been decent today in midfield for us, generally controlling that area of the pitch for much of the game.

Settle for a point but we have been excellent
