Happy Mick McCarthy day

One of the most honest football managers out there, who calls it exactly as it is, without making excuses.

I'm hoping we pile up the misery just ever so slightly tonight for him.

If Knocky recovers from his knock ok and Solly can start 2 games in 3 days then i can't see anything but a home win , but i won't be pissing my pants if we fail to take the maximum points from this fixture as i'm 5 points ahead in my own prediction table thus far , Mc goldick always seems to score against us so a side bet of a anytime goal by him and a home win will be my £3 quids worth tonight ..

On paper should be a home win but we know how inconsistent we are against Ipswich so I'm not taking anything for granted tonight.

Difficult games ahead so I'd be hoping for us to come out with all guns blazing and not to sit back if and when we do take the lead. We have to go for the juggler, as Warren would say.
