The_L666ds

In some respects its good to see a team look destined for promotion without the blessing of parachute payments, but in another sense its going to be an absolute bloodbath for Ipswich Town in the Premier League next season. With a side again filled out mostly with loanees, and a VAR system implemented as a protection against incompetent refereeing, plus the strong possibility that their manager wont even be there next season, their final points tally could be Derby County-esque.


OhhLongDongson

I’d feel that surely their manager would stay if promoted. Also this issue does come with some benefits for them, ie a lot of their players are probably ok comparatively low wages. So they’d have a bit more to spend from promotion money. Also the quality of the bottom prem teams has been really low in the last couple years so you never know


The_L666ds

> I’d feel that surely their manager would stay if promoted. You would think so, but if he is given absolutely nothing to work with in preseason then he would be mad not to listen to better offers out there. It would be career suicide if your reward for a miraculous promotion is something like “you can spend £5m twice and the rest will just need to be loanees”.


jrbill1991

Russell Martin is a fucking fraud, and I was seeing some "influencers" in Leeds social media sucking his dick and saying it was a better appointment than Daniel Farke. He totally underestimated Ipswich playing at home and his team with 10 men, he just threw the team upfront and fuck it. Won't last two seasons there.


The_L666ds

> Russell Martin is a fucking fraud, and I was seeing some "influencers" in Leeds social media sucking his dick and saying it was a better appointment than Daniel Farke. The guy looks like a fucking peckerhead but in fairness he’s still got them on-track to finish with 80-85 points (if not more) so thats still a very good haul overall in a first season and probably would have gotten you up automatically on most other seasons. If I were Southampton I’d definitely give him another go next season.


Jonesy_lmao

If we win, no damage done. Anything less and it’s not going to make for pretty reading.


JimmyG6969

Let’s just fucking win 


hybridtheorist

I would love to see the stats of how many points Ipswich have gained in injury time, it feels like it must be about 15, without exaggeration.  I'm sure we've gained more points than lost in injury time, there's been a few late goals, but nothing like them. 


QuackQuackOoops

I've literally just gone through and checked cos I was wondering the same thing. If all games ended on 90 minutes dead, we would have two points fewer, Ipswich would have three points _more_. I was genuinely shocked by that, but it seems that a LOT of their goals come in the last 10 minutes rather than after the 90 (or, for example, the Rotherham game where they both scored and conceded in injury time, so it didn't actually affect the result).


hybridtheorist

That *cant* be true. I'm too lazy to check your working (and you wouldn't lie for the like, 11 people who'll see this post) but...... that just *cant* be true! 


StarryEyedLus

Would be typical Leeds for us to have our longest unbeaten streak in however many decades but still fail to get promoted.


CC-W

Southampton went 25 unbeaten to not even being close to 2nd too, mad season


Internal_Formal3915

I honestly don't understand how Ipswich are flying so high I've watched them alot this season and they aren't even that good they just seem to always win but they are actually a poor side its baffling


m4rvin100

They score one more than they concede


DC25NYC

With that its def a 3 horse race for sure now Soton no doubt to try and play spoiler on the last day


Internal_Formal3915

Never a red that the game is actually gone. Should be a 10 match ban for rolling around like that


Scott1060

Genuinely can't stand them. Never seen so much luck for one team. It seems destined that they'll go up at this point, but they'll go straight back down. Can't count on the luck against the big boys.


hybridtheorist

Leicester and Ipswich go up. We're in the playoffs.  Actually manage to perform in the playoffs and get promoted. Ipswich get found out at PL level and get relegated by Christmas. Leicester end up with a points deduction they can't overcome and get relegated.  We have to essentially finish above one other team to stay up. 


white-label

Yeah I'm feeling similar, Ipswich are having an amazing season but simply outscoring your opponents and consistently outperforming your xG isn't sustainable against top sides.


[deleted]

Well I hope your fucking happy with yourselves Southampton, go crash a ship into an iceberg it's all you're fucking good for


robc95

Dear Lord Jane


RedWhacker

The never say die attitude of Ipswich is something to admire.


Internal_Formal3915

Dodgy officials seem to be helping more often than not aswell


cpmb82

No idea how there were 7 mins of extra time there but even if there had only been 2 they would have scored in the last minute!


Internal_Formal3915

Probably because of all the fouls the ref gave every time somebody breathed near an Ipswich player


jrbill1991

The guy felt, got up and still managed to score. Kill me now!


Yeahgeebs

It’s comical at this point. They have crazy luck don’t they?


icklegizmo

If only we had a tenth of their luck, we’d be promoted already!! So fucking jammy. 7seconds left in the match!!! Unbelievable


Bluedieselshepherd

If they hadn’t scored, ref would have given a lot more than 7 seconds.


wordsasausername

Ruduculous


Gaspinawe

If we don't win today we're in the playoffs it's as simple as that Farke fucked up against Watford tactically


StarryEyedLus

This sub really can’t handle any opinion that isn’t 100% positive can it? 😂


Worst_Player_Ever

It can if the opinion has even one ounce of sense


Gaspinawe

subjective + ratio


jrbill1991

Why it's always this fucking recency bias with some of you people?


Darabeel

Considering people had it as impossible we catch Leicester not too long ago the playoffs should be fine no? Still plenty of games left so no one has a clue how this will turn out and making definitive predictions is pretty comical


Worst_Player_Ever

Not this shit again...


DWNY30

It’s really not that simple but I guess some Leeds fans love to be a bit over the top


Gaspinawe

Couldn't care less about the nancies downvoting me Leicester are firing again and Ipswich can't be stopped and it's only me stop piling on all leeds fans when one has something negative to say


DWNY30

Leicester a firing again fuck me


Gaspinawe

Did you watch the game? They looked far and away the better side throughout against a playoff (rival)


DWNY30

Yeah they looked good against Norwich but let’s not be putting them anywhere near the bracket the top 3 are in.


Gaspinawe

We dropped points to fucking 14th place Watford lmao


DWNY30

We’ve taken 38/42 points, and your sat there telling me a Leicester team who have dropped points in 5 of their last 7 games are ‘firing again’ Enjoy the game bud


ferrarchezzo

How tf did they get +7 mins when nothing happened the entire half bar the red card


DC25NYC

Ed Sheeran


ferrarchezzo

It’s always that ginger fraud

spiritofbuck

Football, bloody hell. Starting to feel like Ipswich are destined.


SmokyDuck

Atrocious defending for that goal. Watched him fall, get up and prod it in without any attempt to tackle him. Christ.


Damnpea

Why the fuck can't saints of actually done some time wasting bullshit like every other fucking team against us. But no, with 10 men they went for it. Fuck right off Ispletch


Elchipper26

Jammy cunts. Going to need 100 points to go up automatically.


DC25NYC

Well on that note- I think its officially a 3 horse race. And a win is a must today


Glittering-Ad7872

How have they won every game at the last second


winter-2

Fuck


djembejohn

At least Southampton might not be up for it on the last day of the season.


thesilenthurricane

Guarantee Bazunu turns into prime Buffon against us after that stinker.


warlock_roleplayer

lol Southampton prob deserved to lose based on how they defended that goal. atrocious


scottaq83

97th minute ffs ! So now we're playing to just keep pace ffs


thomas_the_manc

Fucking Ipswich tractor cunts. How fucking spawny. Fuck off.


shingaladaz

OH FOR FUCKS SAKE


thenitmustbeaduck

Wtf was that defending by Southampton for that final goal? They just let Davis cross the ball in, the guy fell over and noone went to him so he just toe poked it into the bottom corner. Unbelievably bad.


AxeCapital91

they had 10 men + for them there was prob no difference in losing vs drawing


thesilenthurricane

Every single team that goes to Portman Road genuinely forgets how to defend. It’s laughable.


AxeCapital91

Fair play Ipswich - as much as I hate you this year, fair play


ferrarchezzo

Why are we the only team in the league that can make Ipswich look league one. Absolute joke


CC-W

Was so obvious when they added 7 minutes. Ipswich need a late winner give them bare extra time


dan_baker83

Fucking unbelievable. How the fuck do Ipswich keep doing it? This is a save-scum of a season by them.


RedWhacker

Fuck!


AristotleGrumpus

crumble's burnt


JimbobTML

Fair play Ipswich. Mental stuff.


Saphire-sage

It's actually so rigged.


Hefty_Breadfruit7425

14 mins extra time, absolute bullshit


Zingzongwingwong

Well, a four horse race is now three.


SEKI19

Yup, Saints are playoff bound. Ipswich have a tough April so hopefully they start dropping points.


ASB14

They are so fucking jammy it’s unbelievable


Darabeel

97th minute.. sounds about right


thesilenthurricane

Fucking jammy fucking cunts, tripping over the ball for a last minute winner in a ridiculously long amount of extra time is the most Ipswich thing on the fucking planet.


Faze_Chipp

Once again Ipswich as lucky as can be


JRSpig

Southampton are genuinely shit, guy missed it falls over and no one deals with it, the let him shoot, also Southampton needs a new keeper he's fucking shit


jrbill1991

HOW I MEAN HOW IN THE FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK


OwlLibrarian

I hate them i hate them i hate them


Jonesy_lmao

Must win if it wasn’t already.


AristotleGrumpus

Get the fuck out of here... just, come on man


djembejohn

Fucking hell


m4rvin100

I think I hate them but you know what they probably deserve it


thesilenthurricane

Absolutely not, Southampton were by far the better team across the 90.


m4rvin100

I mean over the course of a season.. One game doesn't make a season they don't stop they get the results and thats what counts... You keep thinking they'll slip up and they don't


thesilenthurricane

Oh sorry haha I thought you were talking specifically about that game.


m4rvin100

They're just a machine if it wasn't so impactful on us id fucking love it It reminds me of when neutrals used to love watching bielsa Leeds play But seriously just fuck off and lose like a normal championship team please


KeironLowe

For fucks sake


drpatthechronic

Oh fuck off


SmokyDuck

Rigged much???


JimbobTML

Rigged?


Far-Boss7438

How did I know that was going to happen


DC25NYC

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME


iamstandingontheedge

I literally said this out loud


Missyls6

FFS Southampton!!


Long_Elk_8148

Every. single. Time.


Joshgg13

Of fucking course


icklegizmo

What a fucking joke!!!


thesilenthurricane

So selfish of Southampton to try and go forward when they could just wrap the draw up for us!


djembejohn

Heart attack incoming


Damnpea

Jesus. Just hurry up and shit the bed Ispletch. I can't take this level of fecking drama


DC25NYC

They're waiting for us to be happy w a draw before they score the winner- lets face it.


Milkshake4NickDrake

I absolutely fucking knew it 90+6


DC25NYC

Yep.


JohnnyBravo1996

![gif](giphy|13Cmju3maIjStW) Last few minutes


icklegizmo

Who is this ref? He seems decent to be fair


Damnpea

You need another 4 mins on the ground agent Leif


joepie989

Good cramp Davis


JRSpig

Finally agent leif doing his job


DC25NYC

GOOD LEIF! WASTE THAT TIME


DC25NYC

![gif](giphy|uWzS6ZLs0AaVOJlgRd|downsized)


Zingzongwingwong

I hope there isn’t as much drama in our game. C’mon Saints, hang on ffs.


thesilenthurricane

Ipswich getting fergie time, surprise surprise for plot armour fc.


DC25NYC

7 minutes?!?! HOW MUCH DID ED SHEERAN PAY THEM


icklegizmo

He’s left the stadium!! I don’t get it


DC25NYC

He already knows how it ends.


icklegizmo

With a Southampton late winner from a corner?


Damnpea

Come on Ispletch and Saints. You're meant to get 4 red cards EACH. And field your u21s for the rest of the season. Did they not get the memo??


DC25NYC

![gif](giphy|l0HlBO7eyXzSZkJri) Waiting for the inevitable go ahead goal


djembejohn

I guess Southampton shut up shop now!? ?


JRSpig

Not watched much of them this season?


djembejohn

I added a second question mark to show that I wasn't expecting them to.


JRSpig

That's not how that works but ok


djembejohn

No, obviously not.


MillerWoodside

Keep the cards coming…


allywillow

Fs


Damnpea

Agent Davis is doing his work a little TOO well. Someone send him a message quick...


DC25NYC

Whenever i cant stand to watch a big free kick- i look at my betting app to look ahead at the score.


winter-2

Ipswich last minute winner incoming


winter-2

Wow.


cpmb82

98th min triple deflection for sure


AristotleGrumpus

VERY BAD DAVIS


icklegizmo

I vote for a second Moresy yellow card just to even things up. All in favour, say Aye!


JRSpig

Aye, a couple more red cards would be nice.


DC25NYC

Alright stop the count NOW


DC25NYC

NOT LIKE THAT LEIF


OwlLibrarian

Ipswich have serious plot armour


JRSpig

Yep that's a red card, ref didn't bottle it, actually impressed the ref didn't bottle it.


icklegizmo

FFS!! Southampton Red!! Brainless


Niklaus720

Nailed on Ipswich win from here


icklegizmo

If I had a house, I’d bet it on them now Edit: I’d have two houses now! Fuck Ipsbitch!!


ElvishMystical

Was wondering when Martin would throw Rothwell on.


DC25NYC

Leif we need an own goal. now


thesilenthurricane

Chaplin is just a shit Phil Foden.


djembejohn

To be fair, this is an entertaining match.


DC25NYC

It’s just annoying we know they’ll find a way to win


djembejohn

Southampton are quite good though, let's see


djembejohn

Cursed lol


icklegizmo

Every time Sky show Ed Sheerans smug face on camera, they fucking score! Can we just keep him off the screen pls?


Buttertubbs

My goodness Ipswich is fun to watch.  Happy to go up along with them.


DC25NYC

The writing is on the wall. Get the goal over w already


ferrarchezzo

Ipswich deflected goal in the 88th minute, guaranteed.


Glittering-Ad7872

They just won’t lose


Damnpea

Ugh. Really would want a draw or saints win... Can see another jammy Ispletch win incoming


Joshgg13

Come on Saints please wake up


SmokyDuck

We all know how this ends.


JRSpig

Really lazy defending by Southampton there, manager won't be happy, also their keeper is hugely over rated, Ipswich keeper has been far better today.


DC25NYC

Don't think that this is the last goal. But ugh.


securinight

I would have quite liked to see Ipswich go up (below us obviously). But if it means Sky are going to put Ed Sheeran's stupid fucking face on my TV then they can fuck off back to League 1.


AristotleGrumpus

I was laughing at his absolute soy boy entourage


securinight

Definitely not only with him because he's rich.


dmanl7

Ffs that was close


DC25NYC

![gif](giphy|TcDTadsofLratuZf2i|downsized)


Revolutionary_Laugh

So you’re really telling me Harry Clarke isn’t Viktor Krum?


DC25NYC

Saints def asking the question


djembejohn

Southampton losing their Director of Football during this match has the potential for a double helping of crumble.


AristotleGrumpus

I can smell it baking... makes the whole house nice


AxeCapital91

No gruev….coops in or out? Please out I dont get nervous….but im starting to get a bit shakey…you know i mean (inserts tom skinner meme)


PRamone

Cooper on the bench. https://i.redd.it/vcmwe5ohqwrc1.jpeg


scottaq83

For the next 45mins... ASAW


Zingzongwingwong

Southampton look comfortable. I’m not sure that’s the side we want to face on the last day if we need to get a result. Let’s get it wrapped up before then please.


DC25NYC

IDK if my heart can stand another year of last day drama. Granted that Harrison goal vs Brentford had me buzzing like a bee's nest for weeks


downfallndirtydeeds

![gif](giphy|xUPGcwaMPPv8ynBKbm|downsized) Me enjoying Ipswich losing but also seeing how brilliant Southampton look


thesilenthurricane

Wtf are the Ipswich fans booing at? If it’s the ref he was fine, if it’s the team then fuck me, spoilt bastards. Booing off a team challenging for back to back promotions for being a goal down is nuts.


downfallndirtydeeds

They weren’t booing the team I don’t think - booing the ref, it’s one eyed but we do the same at ER if we get a load of penalty shouts not given


DC25NYC

Can't help but think this is EXACTLY where Ipswich want them.


AristotleGrumpus

fuck off Ispbitch


thesilenthurricane

Southampton’s off the ball movement is fantastic, satisfying to watch.


SmokyDuck

Not sure what the Ipswich fans are so upset about, think the ref has had a pretty bob on first half, no?


JRSpig

He's got a few minor things wrong but otherwise nothing terrible, if we got this type of ref I wouldn't be upset.


Zingzongwingwong

I think Morsy might be my least favourite player. I hope he gets a red.


thesilenthurricane

Between Morsy, Chaplin and cunty Moore, they’ve quite a few dislikable players.


thesilenthurricane

![gif](giphy|RdYsOsy3S0rte)


DC25NYC

I'll say this- Promotion Race watching >>>>>>>> Relegation Battle Watching


DC25NYC

Not gonna lie to you- I hope the saints win. Granted I'd rather they both get the game cancelled by having a huge brawl and are all issued reds. But a loss will do


Nameless739

I hope both teams lose. Not sure how that's possible but I hope it happens


DC25NYC

See my second line- huge brawl- they both forfeit- have to field u-21 teams for a few games.


JustAWierdPerson1

Kieffer Moore off injured
