Good news about tonight’s game

Post by northeastclaret » Tue Feb 07, 2023 12:22 pm

Just noticed they have a massive game against Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, surely it will be a distraction for them tonight. I know we have Preston , but we are in a much better position to not let that distract us.

Also should help Fleetwood against Wednesday for the same reason ?

Don’t think it matters to be fair if we want to beat Ipswich and take it seriously we will beat Ipswich such is the difference in quality between the 2 sides.

Disagree entirely. We're talking about the FA Cup and as we all know there are lots of upsets along the way. We SHOULD beat Ipswich but I saw enough in the first game to see that they're a decent outfit and more than capable of turning us over

Also noticed extra time before pens tonight.

Does anyone know if replays continue for the next two rounds ?

They made 8 changes for the first game and didn't look too shabby.
They'll do the same tonight.

Upsets are generally caused by the higher league team being subconsciously complacent and either overplaying or performing at 99% and their opponent being totally focussed, often aided by a poor refereeing performance.

Lots of people have said Iapeich are a good side.

I think they had a good day and we had an off day in a poor pitch. There is a reason they aren’t running away with their league.

I reckon we should be comfortable tonight assuming we turn up.

Magnificent effort by tractor boys, by all accounts.
Never take anything for granted in footy.

Indeed. As difficult a game as we've had at the Turf all season.
