Ipswich must be scared to death

[St Eve]

Can anyone refresh my memory of the score the last time we played Ipswich on Boxing Day.it was at home in 1963. Maybe history will repeat itself

[jarv]

was tge score 10-1?

[mitimo]

Yeah 10-1; then 4 days later it was 4-2 to them at their place.  Think they got on the turps earlier than our lot.

[ChesterTheTabby]

Ipswich must be shaken to see the squad we have a'coming for them. The mighty whites will be back to winning ways come boxing day.

I was at both matches.There were loads of crazy score lines that Boxing Day.

Seeing those shorelines makes me think some teams enjoyed their xmas' more than others. Must have been a great day grandad. We surely couldn't have won a top flight game by more goals post war. Even pre war.

Haha scorelines

[Jonaldiniho 88]

Wouldn't mind a descent shoreline. Somewhere in se Asia.

[Fulham Tup North]

I will settle for a 1-0 this time around!

If we can get 5 against high fliers like Huddersfield and Reading, surely there is a chance that sometime this season we could hit 7 or 8 if the players fancy doing so?

Haha I think you mean decent!  This thred is a classic.

[SuffolkWhite]

We are gonna have to be good at defending set pieces and the aerial threat. Bit concerned that our defence could be missing Siggursen and definitely Kalas .

Cant remember when we last beat the tractor boys away?

Going forward we should scare them sh**less for sure!

I think in the West Ham scoreline John Byrom may scored 6 for Blackburn...can anyone confirm this...of course it could be an age thing and he never even played for Rovers....

Thank you and good night....
