    This ref is gonna shaft us tonight. We will see a red, I just that feeling. The officiating in this tier of the footballing pyramid is atrocious and we tend to get the rough end of it to

    We have the best defence in the league away from home and they’ve scored the least goals of any team at home with 10 goals in 16 games.

    Bird's playing very well and will be a real asset next season.

    Poor decision to bring Wilson on at Right back cost us the match. Keep your  proper defenders on last 5 mins not a attacking wingback .
     
    Poor decision.

    Today was pathetically bad. The quality of football was absolutely dross.
    If Warne gets us up the chances of him keeping us up are zero in my opinion.
    I look at what Ipswich did last season and are doing this season and we're a million miles away from what we "could be".
    Bottom line is the football isn't good enough, I can accept poor results if we're playing the right way but the football is awful so draws like today become completely unacceptable.

    I think it's just his schtick, Ted. I don't think he's trying to show opponents up so much as show how good he is. it does wind folk up thouhg and as a result, people want to see him get his yap smashed in. That puts bums on seats. Look at the influencer crowd and the bucks they make. It ain't because those f****** can fight! I agree it looks disrespectful, but that boy can fight and he'll only do it until someone tags him anyway.
    Also, when you think about it, there's been plenty of fighters down the years who have liked to toy with and taunt their opponents. I can see some method to the madness beyond mere posturing. Angry fighters make mistakes. I think this lad is a deal more calculating than he appears. Do I like it? No, not really, but I'd still pay to watch him fight.
    Yep, spot on for me, Chester. I thought Buatsi was actually pretty good last night, having not been wildly impressed with some of his recent fights. Azeez was game as you like and he's no mug, but Buatsi always looked in control countered most of the former's good work with more of his own. He had more of the remorselessness about him that we saw in his early fights. That said, I think the internet chatter linking Bivol or Beterbiev is fanciful. He's not at that level IMO, though he is likely to get a title shot sooner rather than later. He might be one of those fighters who is top tier, but not top class though. Only one way to find out, I guess!
    Understandably not a popular fighter on here, though oddly and somewhat hypocritically, I'm still kind of rooting for him... Conor Benn. The end of one fight overlapped the beginning of the other, but he looked sharp against a durable, if limited, Dobson. He's definitely filled his frame and looks a lot more like his old man now and his foot work and hand speed both look improved. That said, Dobson, who appears to be made of solid granite, looked slow in his work and was relatively easy pickings for the nimbler Benn.
    I've seen Hearn reported as having tried to re-arrange the Eubank fight, with Eubank's camp not wanting it. It'd be a fairer match now in some ways given Eubank was much the bigger fighter. Not so much now though, but while I do think it'll happen, it'll be on Eubank's terms, not Benn's. Wasn't keen myself before, but wouldn't mind it now.
    Also Fury - Usyk rearranged for May. Pretty much past caring!

    Really interesting Buatsi /Azeem fight.
    Buatsi looked snappier, always had a immediate reply to a Azeem attack. Every time the straight jab rocked him back he threw a combination to show he was bossing it.
    Azeem's corner just kept repeating for him to step up the workrate, pressure with body shots...just basically outwork him. Commentators were saying the same. 
    It all seemed so simple that the only explanation he wasn't, .. was either he was fearful of getting tagged or he was too tired.
    Last couple of rounds showed he was just absolutely f***** and had nothing more to give and was on his limit.
    Don't think Buatsi looked like he could mix it with the really big boys on that showing. Great domestic fight, not an audition for a World level fight considering the titans around his weight.

    I am not a fan of selling a player and keeping him on loan. If we sell him, wish him well and let him go. It is different from loaning a player coming in, where they hopefully see it as an opportunity to impress.

    f*** me give the kid a bit of respect
    Stuck by the club when it was properly properly s***, could have done a Buchanon or a Byrne but didnt
    Time for him to move on.. No problem with that, he's earned a move. Going to see out the season so that he doesn't leave the club in a tougher spot for the rest of the season and gives some money and time for Clowes to get him replaced, good on him. Best of luck and hope he gets a big pay rise!
