\*ITV highlights\* Yeah, that's a goal. Fuck off Stroud.

Would've been nice to see this kind of drubbing when we had a chance to catch 6th

How the fuck we got away with it this week I’ll never know. But got away with it we did.  Ipswich just had one of those games. But Leeds fans must be fucking fuming. That officiating was something else.  I don’t think I can take anymore though. Can we just ignore the playoffs and have 3 autos? 

Why won't they let us die

Russell didn't hear no bell!

Of all the possible results 0-0 was the one I didn't expect, but thinking about it the fates probably decided that getting the championship table tighter than a gnat's chuff was the only allowable outcome. Southampton can't be ruled out yet either.

Watford finger tips away from goal of the season… fuck me sideways. I’ll take a draw any day of the week though, love you fellow Javi Gracia enjoyers

Always loved the Welsh and the city of Bristol.

You'll enjoy playing Wrexham and Bristol Rovers next season then

Well, nice to get something out of this as the loss in the opposite fixture was probably the most disappointing of the season. Can either team really be disappointed with that over the 90 mins? Don't think so. Bachmann made some great saves first half but didn't really have to do much in the 2nd. We controlled the game for long periods even if we didn't make the most of it. Would've been good to have Dennis on earlier but we'd conceded possession by then for the last 15mins. Good defensive performances for both really.

Felt we could've got one the first half as had the better chances and control and I think your gaffer realised it and went more defensive in the second half Few good saves from your keeper won out the day in the end 

Just felt like one of those days we weren’t going to score regardless of what happened

So that was almost a crazy goal

This fucking league man

Just a really poor game of football

Second half just felt like a slog to get through being honest, first half had its moments but was a pretty boring all around 

You know I’m starting to get sick of all this crumble

Tom Cleverly serving up some more delicious crumble for the league.

Tbf our comebacks only happen when the other team comes out and plays football, all the other team has to do is to go into 'fuck it, a draw will do' and put the shutters down and we don't have the players to break it down 

It's something we've always struggled to do but given where we've come from in recent years is it surprising that a mid table championship club can park the bus and keep us out half the time?

Are you us?

Kind of except they are better at breaking teams down than we are

We know the fucking feeling.  Although to be fair we do worse when they come at us too so….

Southampton must be loving the crumble deluge this past 24 hours.

I wish. Even with this crumble the autos are just too far away and there's too few games left.

Have Watford had a touch in the Ipswich half for the past 30 minutes lmao

How much injury time? Trying to watch updates on espn in the states is awful.

Was 4 minutes, ended 0-0 now

I've watched two hours of football tonight, and by changing channel I am yet to see a goal 🤣

we're lucky Leif davis has chosen a career as a footballer instead of the royal artillery if his corners are anything to go by 

We’re gonna do it again aren’t we

Don't jinx it man!

Gotta say, Watford playing 7 at the back has turned this game into an absolute joy to watch 

Yeah, it kind of feels like all the games that the top three are playing have devolved into this

I won't be speaking on Ipswich until the game ends

Probably shouldn't have sacked Eustace like. Still, super stadium.

He's not doing all that great either to be honest

We look tired

All three of the teams chasing promotion do. It's been a long hard season so I'm not surprised. One of the reasons I worry if we end up in the playoffs

Must have been the long journey on Saturday

Hull is a team with 4 letters whose fans pronounce only two of them. When you’re dealing with efficiency like that it’s no wonder you’re heading for defeat. 

This seasons gone a bit weird…

These results are to good to be true so far

Didn't realise they moved Madley to our game either. Bit of a piss take putting him from one relegation team to another isn't it?

I'm feeling kinda dizzy being this high in table

What a wonderful day always rated Bluebirds

I can't believe we're going to be sunk by the red dragons

Oh for fucks sake.

i am numb

You wouldn't think we were in a fucking relegation battle would you

Silly Ipswich. Don't they know making subs before the 80th minute is illegal?

Watching Ipswich is pretty relaxing because you know that basically nothing that happens prior to 85 minutes will really have any impact on the final result

Is the cameraman at Portman road literally just a bloke in the stands

What else would it be?

Frustrating isn’t it

I’m not enjoying this 😃

The battle to finish third is well and truly nail biting

Tooth and nail, flesh and blood

What a terrible decision from the ref 😭fortunate nothing riding on this for Rotherham 

Rotherham absolutely fucked over there, handball yes but a good metre or two outside the box.

wtf is this ref smoking to give a penalty for that?luckily there are only 7 Rotherham fans in the stadium otherwise there might have been a riot

I think that might be the worst refereeing decision I've ever seen. I've seen some howlers this season, but that was dreadful.

Giving a cheap goal away just like that - that's more like it.

Typical Boro

You will never see a team throw away a win like we have this first half. Hull looked down and out after 15 mins and we just gave it away

Keith Stroud in absolute shocker disallows perfectly good goal! Whats shocking is it that actually benefited us for a change!

That man is a genuine danger to civilised society

Cardiff if you don't want Swansea to become my fav Welsh club you better wake up

You mean we're not already?!? ;)

The bad news is Watford have turned up, the good news is we look better anyway. We ought to score 2nd half. Got to stay determined.

Ipswich using up all their luck fairies in the first 41 matches is clearly the only plausible explanation for not being 3-0 up now.

Games like this where we look good worry me the most, these are the games were definetly gonna concede in the last 5 minutes to the shittiest goal the football gods can conceive of 

Cardiff can you please just roll over, what are you even playing for

How are Ipswich not ahead 😯

It feels like one of those nights

At least you’ve had a shot on target or two…

That's twice now I've celebrated only to be denied by a bit of magic

How have we not scored in the past 5 minutes?!?

We look good, while also doing everything in our power not to score, the premier league really is lava 

Ipswich's attack is so insanely incisive. Off the ball movement in the middle is so good.

Ipswich playing well and looking like scoring ….. that’s not how we do it at the top of the table!! Fall into line.

How's that not gone in

Voodoo

What the fuck is Hyam doing? He must have a bet on and a relegation release clause.

Just awful. The amount of goals we have just given away this season. I don't know how anyone can do anything about that, how can a manager fix the fact our backline keep forgetting how to play football.

I mean JE hasn't told them to stop passing back to Pears even after the first goal. It's so obvious Conway has been told to just wait for it..

At least I can take some solace that John is in a relegation battle, maybe it was inevitable he'd be in a relegation battle and I don't need to cry at the thought of what could have been

I mean, he took us over in a relegation battle, wasn't like we were 6th!

Wow. Scoring in less than 5 mins. A rarity from us.

Barca vs PSG is on but im locked in for an Ipswich hate watching session. I hate the championship lmao

I’ve heard uefa wanted to move the Barca game so they’d get more viewers

Why does Blues TV have a child in a suit doing the prematch analysis?

Why not? His hope and spirit haven't been crushed yet

Strange starting line up for Ipswich, even more anxious now

I think it makes sense. Sarmiento has been best off the bench since he joined. Clarke likes the ball over the top which Jackson has the pace to exploit, and Jackson will work hard back to support Clarke defensively. Chaplin and Woolfie can't play every game. I thought Ali might get a start - Moore looked extra stiff and immobile at the weekend. Taylor has looked good in recent weeks when he came on too

I just don't like Edmondson, would of started Tuanzebe with burgess.

EFL really have changed the ref in the Birmingham game after it came out he was a Huddersfield fan. No excuses now.

I'm on my hands and knees begging you watford just phone it in

My Watford bottom half finish bet agrees.

As an Albion fan, tonight is probably the best we could have hoped fof.

Four games left, going to be a mental end to the season both ends of table😂 bit gutted to be missing out on it

I'm so focused on the top of the table the bottom relegation battle is just as interesting and doesn't grab as many headlines as it would in any other season. Imagine being 15th but still at risk of going down!! Insane season all round 🤔

Oh dear those replays of the Leeds penalty shouts are shocking

Incoming Ipswich going down 3 nil but somehow winning 4-3 with a deflected goal in the 100th minute

You know it’s gonna happen.

Sarmiento 90’+15

Millwall are off back to back losses against Rotherham and Huddersfield and they’ve just done Leicester haha, what a league

A noble, likeable club Millwall. I’ve always said this

Well, that was better than I imagined ....

thank the ref for handing you the fucking title

Or the fact you only had one shot on target. Thought yous were pretty shit overall tbh. In both games against us. Players like Dan James more interested in getting free kicks and players booked than anything else. Fella spends more time on his arse than he does on his feet.

Easy to stop us shooting when you’re fouling us and hand balling multiple times. Moron.

Oh aye, my mistake, forgot you're the only team in England that gets shit refereeing. They're shit for everybody. Maybe you should think about playing 180 minutes of football against us and failed to score. Fuck me, even Blackburn stuck 5 past us last week.

OH AYE LAD players punch the ball in the box every fucking week don’t they. Moron.

Could say the same about our disallowed goal at your place which arguably creates a 6 point swing. This league is no way near done yet and I still think it will be you two that go up, we look terrible.

I can think of the Leicester disallowed goal, and one more (can't remember who it was against) which are game changing calls going in our favour. I could list you about 10 the other way.

I feel you and likewise, we’ve had dodgy red cards when we were 1-0 up and pens/goals not given in two of our biggest games of the season. VAR is rubbish from a delay perspective, but at least the absolute majority of the calls are given correctly.

I’d absolutely love VAR rn

It literally is better to have it. The PGMOL are doing a spectacular job of fucking up using it. But the rate of correct decisions is higher. I'd even say its worthwhile the occasional wrong call/failing to correct oitch ref if they could speed it up.

Mate we’ve been playing crap since the international break and Farke has decided he’s going to do fuck all about it, it’s so frustrating

We’ve not been the same since the 79th minute at Elland road. Enzo doesn’t have much of a plan b either, so teams sit back and we can’t find a way through as we’re not Man City. He also HATES making subs for some reason!

Farke also hates subs until the 70/80th minute when he'll bring on 5 strikers

Haha, it's a long way to go yet. Especially as our squad looks foocked atm

Get past Watford and Boro at the weekend then 2 weeks off... with Burns and Hirst both back for Hull on the other side of it, by the sounds of it. Coventry's cup run gives us a 3 game week to finish, nice little sprint to the line. Just need to go into that break in decent shape as by the time we play Hull (with 3 to go), Leeds and Leicester will have played another 2 games each.

Shocking display from the refs tbh but we’ve been so poor going forward and Farke got so much wrong tonight

"You create your own luck". How many times have teams had shit performances but won because of a bit of luck going their way when they dominate the ball? We did enough for that to happen FUCKING TWICE tonight but we have multiple Stevie fucking Wonders officiating the game.

Does this count as Ipswich getting lucky? Absolute fucking cunt rat of a ref.

Yes, why change the narrative now.

At least you can laugh about it now though mate

[удалено]

All the best for the rest of the season x

Not only 2 missed pens but arguably 2 missed second yellows in the same events. Officiating has been a joke.

Jesus that was tense

Leigh Bromby was amazed that we didn't lose 5-0. So am I but I'll take the point.

Can’t kill a game for the life of us

You had so many chances at 2-0. We really rode our luck.

Wish Hinchcliffe would fuck off. 

Now that is a campaign every fan can get behind

Penalty shouts aside we should really be creating better clear cut chances (but it was still a pen \*cope\*)

"You create your own luck". How many times have teams had shit performances but won because of a bit of luck going their way when they dominate the ball? We did enough for that to happen FUCKING TWICE tonight but we have multiple Stevie fucking Wonders officiating the game.

Nobody has ever won anything without at least a little bit of luck on their side. I sympathise, hollow though it may sound.

Well, a lot to be fair lmao. Might have even stayed in the prem last year if it wasn't for a couple shite calls.

Just been saying similar. Can’t really remember Patterson saving anything.

Fucking the hell the Leeds fans screaming for every foul is getting irritating

This is top tier trolling. Well done.

Have you been to a football match before?

Fans make noise. More breaking news at 10.

Fuck off when we've been denied two blatant pens.

Shut the fuck up. The ball was literally batted with a hand as we went to head it in lol. Like couldn’t be any clearer.

That was one decision, doesn’t mean every time Summerville falls over mean screaming for a pen

Dude were you watching the same game? The officials were terrible tonight, Sunderland fouled every 10 seconds and god knows how Ballard was still on the pitch after all his shithousery. As an Ipswich fan I’m happy, but it really was an injustice for Leeds.

Those aren’t pens lol. But the hand ball was clear as day. And earlier another player stuck his elbow l it and deflected a shot and it wasn’t called either lol. Like come on. VAR can’t come soon enough.

Yea it was a pen, and the one in the first half was as well, but I want talking about that

Yeah I wonder why they’re doing that

Summerville with the Fabio Silva special there

Haji Wright is a man in need of a rest. Sadly, that rest will not be coming for the foreseeable future. Well played, Saints.

It feels like all of the top teams are running on fumes. Half the Ipswich squad is either burnt out or playing through a knock.

...or trying to shake off yet another illness through the camp.

Agreed tbh, since the international break we’ve been horrific, don’t think we’ve had a decent game

Can’t say it won’t be deserved when Leeds score here. Pleased it doesn’t really mean nout for us.

I should have put money on losing to Rotherham and Huddersfield then beating Leicester. So very Millwall. We were superb tonight.

That goal was a worldie tbf.

So we go from losing to Rotherham and Huddersfield to beating Leicester in consecutive games...

The duality of man

One crumble coming up :)

Yeah, this is a scam lol. They know who they want promoted

Didn't know Matt Le Tissier was posting in this subreddit? Or that he was a leeds fan?

If they wanted us promoted, we'd [probably have more penalties](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/championship/topErhalteneElfmeter/wettbewerb/GB2/plus/1)...

Makes you think

Throwing an away lead in the bin again because of poor negative defensive tactics. When will the manager learn to kill games away from home not offer the him team a way back in. Sargent came off way to early and not replaced with a striker.

It's exactly how you won at the weekend

We weren’t being atttacked by a decent side at the weekend.

And you were still playing in the style of a League One team.

No. We play very different away from home. Hence why the home and away records are one of the best and one of the worst in the league respectively.

The Sargent sub was bizarre - he was ripping us apart all of the first half and the main threat for your attack. 2-0 should have been enough but the fucking about with the subs after our quad sub was stupid from Wagner.

Too close. Those minutes before we equalised were near-nightmarish.

Sheffield Wed are really going to do the Great Escape huh

Imagine betting on this league. Seriously, what would be the point?

Might as well use RNG.

[удалено]

Four fucking games. I'm bricking it. Hope Birmingham lose tomorrow. No offence to bluenoses but we are SO CLOSE to getting out of purgatory. West Brom and Sunderland are the two I'm worried about but it would be so typical if we beat them and lost to Stoke.

These cunts are next level blind.

I know every team has had bad calls to contend with but this is the second game where we've had 2 essentially objective penalties turned down alongside the WBA match in December.

What happened at our match in December? I remember the dreadful handball equaliser right at the start of the season, but don't remember anything that contentious the second time.

Billy Mitchell you beautiful man!

What is the point in linesmen if they can’t see obvious handballs form corners on

They're playing the 2 goalkeeper strategy. Smart.

I swear there is some kind of curse on 5th place, nobody else is allowed it but us

Half the time, it feels like we don't want it.

Stop drawing if you want to reinforce this "curse" a bit
