Delano Sorba Headley Diarra Pretty much confirmed to be the bad eggs. We already knew Sorba and Burgzorg were pricks (unfortunately they were also potentially match winners). Diarra just not good enough but granted that team sheet doesn't reflect well on Headley. What are we saying about Koroma? Dropped but in the squad. Is he a bad egg or just on the turn? Can't understand why Matos has travelled and the B teamer included is a right back when we have Turton, Edwards, Pearson and Jackson!

Edwards starting is excellent. He's definitely getting 16 goals today.

I am pleased a statement has been made with that line-up today - this needs to be the start of the cultural change

I am surprised there’s only those few players dropped, AB made it sound a lot worse and even Maynard gave the impression that there aren’t many of the current squad who are worth their salt. Should have drafted in more U23 players imo. Leeds and the football league might have something to say if they did. It’s happened to us before, no one seemed arsed then.

Interested to see how the team performs in general today. Nothing to play for, know they’re relegated.
Let’s not berate all of ‘em if things don’t go well.
I’m also interested to see how Healey and Ward perform. When we had something to play for last week, I thought they chased and harried quite well for most of the game. They certainly seemed to put more effort into that side of their game than Burgzorg has in recent weeks.
Here’s hoping we get a commendable draw, but it’s a dead rubber for us regardless.
Fair play to the supporters who’ve made the journey today.

We got fined when Wagner did it before the play offs against Birmingham I think? I’m told we’re not well liked by Blackburn fans because of that day, they reckon we effectively sent them down.

Shocking line up. Edwards and Jackson when we're still in with a shout of staying up? , where is the ambition? No chance that lot are going to get us what we need today to have a chance of staying up where are the goals going to come from? It's almost like we've given up.

Delano Sorba Headley Diarra Pretty much confirmed to be the bad eggs. Someone already said they weren’t even at the hotel. Nobbers I doubt if they have even travelled down. Don’t think Breitenreiter would want them near the squad.

Should have drafted in more U23 players imo. We’d be in trouble if we made too many changes. Also maybe there are ringleaders and then others that kind of followed or associated with them but could be redeemed.

Some of which will be seeking moves but haven’t been a disruption compared to some, I.e Rudoni.

Really strange game today huh. I've been quite happy to stop worrying about town for a bit as this seasons been such an endless bunch of shit. I've got a soft spot for Ipswich as grew up near there, and what they've achieved this season is amazing - I watched a Sky Sports video of their best goals this season and would have killed to see some foootball like that from Town. Will watch without too much emotion but really hope Ipswich win and get that second automatic spot - I don't think it'll be too much of a problem for them

Massive clearout required and a fresh squad of players. Wonder what Jacko is doing nowadays?

Town are still required to field a competive team , if we fielded a under 19's team for example we would get a huge fine and probs more. It may well be pick the less of the bad apples and make up a squad from there. It does not mean that there are more to go after today.

What a shite team.
I know the players are to blame but how it’s come to this is embarrassing.
A “dire Huddersfield team” who have “not scored more than 1 goal in last 11”.
Cheers Kev and the lads for turning us into a laughing stock 👌

If anyone has any small children at the ground with you, can you ask them to shed their tears before the game & not in front of the Sky cameras…
Stiff upper lip and all that… 😉

I genuinely prefer 4 at back but understand why we’re playing 5 at back - is anyone suggesting we should play 4 with protection of 2 of Matos / Kasumu / Wiles vs free scoring Ipswich? Without Hogg that’s no protection at all
We’d be looking at a 14 goal swing rather than a 4 nil defeat
I’d have thought Spencer over Edwards if he’s rwb or Jackson lwb but who knows he went off, may be carrying a knock
Koroma bench to fit system - if a bad egg he’d be out.

Little dickie bird tells me Mr Nagle may be at Ipswich today. If so I hope they get going on any changes at 9am tomorrow. Not many having a go at trying to predict the starting eleven, probably easier to pick the lottery bonus ball although not long to wait before we find who the naughty kids are......Headmaster Kev is flying in to try & restore some sort of order, maybe one or two sackings before he flies back? Nagle is here

Cheers Kev and the lads for turning us into a laughing stock 👌 We're just having goals to score 16 today. We'll do that just for Plymouth to absolutely shithouse a draw probably.

I hope Edwards playing isn't a sign he'll be with us next season.
Before I saw the line up I wouldn't have been surprised by a win, draw or loss today but if we get anything with that side, I'll be very surprised, even though there's no pressure on our lot now & it's all on Ipswich.

No strikers and a centre half at right back in a must win game. 2 strikers and 2 right backs in a nothing game. Brilliant.
