Run over by the Tractor Boys

Ipswich Town 5 West Ham 1

Disastrous result at Portman Road, the only slight positive being that Southampton only drew leaving West Ham still top. A fan handcuffed himself to the post at Everton, but it seems a few WHU fans should have also handcuffed themselves to Robert Green's posts in an effort to keep the score down. Conceding after two minutes is very poor and just when we get it back to 2-1 we concede a dodgy penalty to go 3-1 down at half-time. Cole headed against the post early on, but this is surely proof that we need those new players. Ravel Morrison has just signed but buggered if I'm going to wait up for the close of the transfer window after this…

Sounds like an absolute shocker - I had been thinking of going, glad I gave it the swerve now. Worse than Reading, as we didn't have 2 sent off. What you missed transferwise was the signing of Vaz Te and Maynard. Let's hope they can make a difference...

I'm glad too that I opted for Peterborough and not Portman Road! Not a bad bit of transfer activity, at least Cole and Baldock now have to compete with Vaz Te and Maynard while Morrison is exciting if we can keep him out of jail....
