The major positive for me in getting rid of VAR is the speeding up of the game. As before, a quick check to see if the lino has his flag up and then we can instantly celebrate and not wait 2 or 3 mins for our 2nd celebration. If this leads to a few more dubious off side calls and the benefit...

Don't think you are far away with that 11. I do expect a couple of 1st team players to be added to the squad but think we will go down the traditional route of 2 for the 1st team and 2 or 3 as potential future stars. Bear in mind we already have signed Ibrahim Osman, so hopefully a right back...

Definitely playing in Europe. Yes, it did have a knock on effect to our league form (coupled with a ridiculous number of injuries) but it was fantastic seeing us play some of the best sides in Europe. We've learnt a lot about what it takes to compete in 4 competitions this season, and will be...

1 down already! Unbelievable. Just thought I'd get that in their early.

20 odd years I believe.

Well done Ipswich - nice to see someone different coming up. Good weekend away. Good old fashioned stadium too.
