Hope the ref has seen what a hash he made of Tuanzebe’s yellow card.

Biggest concern is that although we have been winning games recently we have not been convincing, with the play offs a distinct possibility we really need to be hitting top form over the last few games with Southampton and Norwich likely opponents...

Sargent put his legs back for another flop. Can’t stand this dude

I think the referee squared up the free kick he shouldn’t have given against Tuanzebe in the first half more than seeing it wasn’t a foul.

We certainly need to step up a gear if we have any plans on winning this game

Even Leif Davis isn’t finding a blue shirt with his crosses which is very unusual.

Just seen Sargent’s trailing leg which the referee obviously did spot, but why didn’t he book him.

We need a goal soon cos we only look one mistake away from conceding a second.

I’ve certainly not given up yet but it’s not looking good.

I think if we are honest we probably have been outplayed in the last 3 games. We just managed to win two of them.

He’s much better than Hutchinson in that role

With hindsight Al-Hamadi would have been a better choice than an unfit Kieffer Moore. At least Ali got stuck in when he came on and got behind the defence anchored real passion which is something that was really missing in a very scrappy game.

Hutchinson was probably the pick of the front 4 though. The other 3 weren’t in it.

He surprised me, he looked sharp.

Al-Hamadi and Sarmiento tried, the rest should be ashamed of themselves putting that kind of performance in in a Derby game, Moore was embarrassing, Tuanzebe over hit every pass, the rest of them just ambled through at a snails pace. So disappointed but kinda expected the defeat from the moment I woke up.

That was trash. All started going badly when Tuanzebe got booked for what looked like a perfect tackle, even though there appeared to be an off side also. I think the referee was so uncertain that's why he booked instead of a sending off.
After that so called foul we got dragged into silly fouling. Norwich players all went down like sack of spuds, throwing themselves to the ground. Referee was giving fouls for them all over the place yet hardly anything for us at all. In the last minute Ali got fouled just outside of the box and the ref gave nothing. Sergeant was going down looking for fouls all game. What a diver

Having said that but sorry, we miss Burns. Hutchison is a great player but he has to cut in. Times when he could of ran at the defender, go outside, be more direct and get those cut backs in. For me he's a better player inside. We lost this game for every player looked off it. No drive. Would think being top of the league might have given the players more to go out and play. Looks heavy on them, maybe being top of the league is a heavy weight

Ooh well, forget the abuse will get from the City fans around here, more concerned now in lifting the players in time for Watford. Two games at home now. Lets hope Coventry who now have to beat Leeds do us a favour.

We may well face City in the playoffs. Got to improve

Wow. look at the league, how can you say "we jst good enough to play betrr against the poor clubs", We beaten Southampton twice, drawn both games against Leicester amongst other great results this season. You don't get to 87 points with 5 games still to play by just being average or what you're suggesting. Of course we need to add quality players if we go up. All of Ipswich Town know that. Lets get there first though

Still twists and turns before end of season. We can still do it

Pretty much what I was saying all game. They looked like a effing swim team with all the dives they were taking, and the ref was obliging. That’s why I am still perplexed as to how Hutchinson was not given a foul, unless he didn’t want to award a penalty kick.

And we really need Burns
