Graham Paddons Beard 2,352 Posted April 25, 2021 Now , for the record , I’m not known for wild prophesies. That said it occurs to me that the gulf between the ability of the two teams TODAY is as wide as I can ever remember it . If we played them tomorrow I reckon it would be double figures . Absolutely no doubt in my mind . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingsway 94 Posted April 25, 2021 We'd certainly be capable of getting 4+ goals and Krul could bring a good book out with him beings Ipswich haven't scored for 10 something hours and are very sh(i!)ot shy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,598 Posted April 25, 2021 I think we can be reasonably sure they’d score a big fat 0, that’s for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
overthebordercanary 137 Posted April 25, 2021 How many goals we were theoretically were going to score, the deluded binner Alex Griffin would still say the "best" team lost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Capn Fistpump said we couldn’t get near them when we won 3 nil so presumably we have to get at least 5 up before they admit they are cr4p? PS I’d offer them a star for every goal they score . They would probably take it too. Edited April 25, 2021 by Graham Paddons Beard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,655 Posted April 25, 2021 Sadly the powers that be have decided that the group stage of the Papa Johns trophy will avoid any local rivalries...otherwise I'd love our U23's to have a crack at them. Reckon even they'd take them to the cleaners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the other hand, I would actually fear for the safety of our players. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Christoph Stiepermann 1,120 Posted April 25, 2021 Depends really doesn't it, as another poster quite rightly noted on another threat that when we're bad we're bad but when we're good we're really bloody good, it's hard work playing like we do and while it can bring great reward there is a large degree of risk involved and things can completely fall apart if a few players aren't on their game . If we went into a game with them and gave a top performance we could easily knock 10 past them, maybe more as it's a derby and we'd be motivated more than any other team who plays them but if we gave a poor performance we'd still probably win but by the odd goal instead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
