The decision by Marti to play Dunne at right back certainly seemed to work and his additional height helped us when defending set pieces. With Drewe and Kakay now reduced to competing for a place in the Development team we needed to find someone to compete with Cannon for the first team position. Be interesting to see if Dunne keeps the shirt against Rotherham.
I've mentioned in an earlier post that I thought Andersen did well but Cook and JCS were rock solid at the centre of defence. Illias does the business in most games and has been our most consistent player this season but JCS has made a real difference at the centre of defence and was my MotM yesterday.

All good comments stoatey! For me, MotM was either JCS or Chair but, interestingly, my podcast guest went for Chris Willock. So, that shows we had some good performances I guess. On the podcast we also discussed the future for Drewe and Kakay, both of whom have their contracts expiring at the end of the season....
I watched this game - it was great to watch it with two mates who continually give me crap - ha ha! I then (stupidly) precited that we would beat Rotherham by five goals... still the rollercoaster ride continues - I have to say I am more than inclined to think we will survive. Just.
im dreading the rotherham game to be honest they have a good record against us in recent seasons jordan hugill also has a habit of scoring against us its one that should be a home banker but we always cock these games up and i dont know why we do with millwall playing southampton this is a good chance to get out of the bottom 3 this is a game with a lot riding on it purely for that reason

I feel the same. Just to make it even more painful, Stoke are away to Cardiff & Huddersfield away to Watford. With a good set of results we could move up 3 places.
its crazy id actually fancy our chances more against leicester away than rotherham at home why the hell does our team makes us shivering wrecks against the teams around us
Rotherham will be hard as they have nothing to lose, it's pretty much last chance for a few weeks to get out of it for us so lots of pressure. If we play like we did on Saturday we'll win easily but you just can't trust this squad to do it when it matters This is one game where we need an early go to settle the crowd

I didn't mention Willock but he had his best game for a long time. He probably should have scored in the second half but overall he looked much more confident than he has. We know he's better than some of his recent performances and the January additions may have focused his brain to realise that unless he performs he won't even get in the match day squad.
The new signings have not only added some some quality but they've also added some much needed competition for a place in the match day squad that will hopefully, help some of our under performers to up their game.
We have to be very careful on Saturday Rotherham play with no fear 1-0 up on Ipswich after 2 minutes Yes they are 3-1 down now but we don’t score more than one goal that often So it’s a dangerous situation if we don’t score first
They’re battling back to 3-2 now certainly no mugs 3-3 now Incredible Ipswich just made it 4-3 It’s going to be a very tricky game a very very tricky one for us
