Who was the idiot (Sowerby?) who in the mêlée in their box, passed onto him and decides lamely to pass sideways to an Ipswich player?
Cost us the three points in all likelihood!

Great performance though generally tonight, especially in midfield and Kioso who again was all over the pitch!

Oh yeah, taking the brave choice to drop Bolger paid dividends tonight for sure.
Yes! Strip him of his captaincy too!

I’ve got to say this taking off Marshall and Rose probably saved the game for Ipswich, terrible substitutions TBH.
Got to hand to you Manny, people have a go at your repetitive posts but your constant championing of Marshall is spot on.

I was looking at out of contract English strikers during the game....

I guess we can count out Daniel Sturridge....but that leaves the likes of Ishmael Miller, Jay Simpson, Wes Thomas, Cody McDonald, Calvin Andrew, Wes Fletcher, George Donnelly......and many more!

Ever heard of any of them?  Wink
No

Bolger not missed and we have a decent replacement by the elusive Sheehan. Will we recall Smith? Some comments on subs. Can understand both as Rose had run himself into the ground and taken fair amount of buffeting. Sowerby had also worked and on a yellow. Good to see Mills urging people on and admonishing the back three for some misdemeanour Mitchell had an easy evening only one good save off Norbett! What ever the experts think on here an encouraging result. If JB can get the result he sorely needs against MK he might just be the man to get us out of trouble. Certainly wont be easy without goal scorers.

Good performance overall and worthy of more than a point, the next step is to play at that level for 90 minutes. The passing and team play is much improved and I think Brady and Co. are getting more out of these players.
One problem for them is the standard of the whole squad. After about an hour tonight we needed to freshen up but who had we got on the bench? Watson maybe but no one else who is going to make a difference.
The defence played well, Horsfall had probably his best game for us and looks a better fit than Bolger. Kioso was excellent.
The midfield had bags of energy, passed the ball well at times and made us look like a team. We could do with another McWilliams type to bring on when we start to flag.
In attack Rose is easily the best we have to lead the line, Marshall has the skill to worry defenders but rarely gives us 90 minutes. In this system Hoskins gives us energy and glimpses of ability, Miller will hopefully be an up grade. The least said about BAS and Edmondson the better.
It's easy to be critical of our substitutions but with the squad we have any changes are unlikely to strengthen the eleven on the pitch.
We have to stick with this 4-3-3 at the moment to allow partnerships and understanding to develop.

Would even be tempted to recall Warburton!

He would be better suited to how we are playing now but has hardly set the world alight at Yeovil.

According to the BBC stats (excludes Papa John’s trophy) the 3 players with the best goals to games ratio this season are Lines, Warburton and Smith.

Wel done JB, MR and Sammo. A much improved performance from a limited group of players.

No
Cody McDonald a few years ago would have been a great signing, not sure now though.

I think a few years is a bit generous 7 or 8 years maybe

Chalk & cheese from last Tuesday's horror show v Wigan

Brady certainly getting a tune out of this squad & considering the lack of time to properly work on tactics etc, we're playing some decent football. Just hitting the damn net continues to be our main problem!

Correct decision to give the captaincy to Mills & drop Bolger, who's certainly never had the required attributes needed to be a captain.

Does Brady even want the job permanently though?

Agree.
Bolger is to captaincy what Manny is to happy clapping.
Keep him out for a bit and get Sheehan back in double quick.

For me, we have to get Harry back over that wall. We don’t have a lot of options!!
