Hopefully the result on Tuesday won't knock our confidence too much. I'm preying Markus Heikinnen is fit as we are really short of centre backs. Had to play our 5th choice centre back midweek, and he's a natural right back normally Sam Parkin may be injured for this one He didn't play last saturday or make the bench midweek. Has an ankle problem, but he had an injection so might make it. I wonder how fired up he will be if he does start?!

I'll go safe and say 2-2. We aren't as strong away as we are at home.

To be fair, if Parkin doesn't play Warren Feeney will, and he's worse than SSP.

In all honesty, If parkin plays or not....I think this is a good match to start billy clarke, and if clarke starts well, and legwinski controls the middle and bruce doesnt get booked....we'll win. But it's not a perfect world, I'll say 1-1 or 2-2 as Nath said.

If Parkin plays he will score. Probably go in off his arse though.

Watching it at home sadly. I went to Everton midweek and can't really afford another away trip just yet.

Not a great stadium? Sorry but its an absolutely lovely stadium Portman Road, especially since it was redeveloped in 2001/02

Don't get me wrong it's not poor like some grounds (ours and lutons) but its certainly not wolves, southampton, coventry standard etc.

Last time I went was when England played Croatia. We won and Beckham scored a penalty.

The newer stand is nice though, Ipswich give a poor capacity to away fans though.

WTF Greg Wolves stadium is gash, Southamptons is boring and just because its newer doesn't mean its better. Ipswich is a lovely lovely stadium, 30,300 capacity and deffo Premiership standard. Why do you think it hosted the England Vs Croatia game with a reletively small capacity in comparisson to other stadiums that hosted England games.

As I said, don't get me wrong it's not a BAD stadium, just I prefer many others in the Championship.

Ipswich seems half built to me.

Wolves stadium is far from gash Oliver. Went there a few weeks back and I was impressed with it. Certainly better than the normal bowls, like Southamptons, which is another stadium i've been to.

I went to Wolves last time we was in Div 1, I was so impressed with it. The attendance for that game was also 3,000 more than West Ham V Arsenal the same day

Portman road isn't bad but it certianly isn't 1 of the best.

So if it's not one of the best that means by default that it is an average Championship ground, or even one of the worst?
Are you insane?
Ok so you don't think it's THE best stadium in the championship but you have to admit (allbeit through gritted teeth no doubt) that as far as championship stadiums go it IS one of the best!
Hell, it's even better than some of the smaller Premiership grounds!
