Ipswich v Leeds - Team/Reports/Ratings...

Post by **1964white** » Wed Aug 21, 2013 7:17 am

Wootton to start ?

Who will he replace ?

Will Ross still be here ?

Anymore signings that may figure in Saturday's line up ?

Team ?

Postman Road not a good hunting ground for LUFC

Portman Road is a nightmare venue for us......I can hardly recall more than 1 or 2 win over probably 15-20 years !!!

However, let's hope the 3000 LUFC fans who have sold out our allocation will see the victory their tremendous support deserves.

I dont think Wootton will start personally, think BMD will stick with same back 4, barring injuries that we do not know about.

I would certainly start with Tonge ahead of Green and would try Hunt instead of Varney. That said, given this is a away game and the manager may want to keep things tight like at Leicester he may revert to that team therefore young Dom starting on the bench - certainly hope not as he warrants another start for sure for me but that move wouldnt surprise me.

Yeah hope he sticks with his philosophy of replacing those who havent performed, allowing Tonge and Hunt to replace Green and Varney. That said, I'd like to see Smith given a start. A cross in to a dangerous header can really panic defences. Get players keeping an eye on him, and allow McCormack and Poleon to run through gaps left.

I'd expect Wootton to start at RB, as Peltier left ER on Saturday with his right ankle in a protective boot.
Or possibly, Lees at RB and Wootton at CB?

Would like to see Smith get a start, but do we have anyone who can pick a decent cross into his area though? Maybe Murphy, as he seems a Howson-like player able to spot and connect on long passes forward.

Put wootton in with Pearce.

Austin and murphy in the middle...

I think green will start with his higher work rate and better defensive qualitys.
if not and thong gets the nod...

I can't get to many games due to family commitments unfortunately therefore reason I say ' their ' is because the guys who go home and away are another level in their support of the club and I genuinely salute their devotion to the cause.

It's not a problem. No offence taken.

For those who can't get to the game, live streams will be available HERE

Twiggster · Post by **Twiggster** » Wed Aug 21, 2013 7:51 pm

Ref for the game is Mike "card school" Dean!

Given we've had 3 red cards in the last 3 games against the dipsticks, NOT a good omen

Was just about to ask you this, mate. I heard rumours this was the case, so I thought if anyone would know, it would be Twiggs!

Cheers mate.

As for the starting team. I don't think it will change too much. Probably Hunt for Varney.

Well we may not be that good a team but we are gritty, we have fight and we have lady luck.
