Match

Ipswich Town refuse to drop out of the race

Position 3, 21 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Kasey McAteer

Successful dribbles: 24. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Ipswich Town get the job done against Huddersfield Town

A 2‑0 win over Huddersfield Town, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad

Aderlan falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

No hiding place for Aderlan

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Aderlan, and the manager let it.

Player ratings

The afternoon belonged to Jack Clarke

A mark of 7.93, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Market

The George Hirst talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Ipswich Town know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Squad

Cédric Kipré left out for tactical reasons at Ipswich Town

The shape wanted a different profile against this opponent, which is a real football answer and no comfort at all to the man it is about. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

Squad

When it matters, Emersonn plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

In brief
