A convincing two nil defeat . Goals in each half, nothing much going forward , looked like McG has never been away .

Poll: No half measure either 1 or 2 ?

Without strikers it's going to be a long long season.

Up the striker deficient U's

Somebody on the OMB said it was Shamal George, released by Liverpool. The trialist centre-back was said to be ex-Ipswich Tommy Smith.

Not the one that played for Liverpool then?
Now he would upset a few Div 2 opponents.

What we wouldn’t give for signing the Anfield Iron. He’d scare the bejeesus out of anyone we played, given he sadly passed over last year

From our fiends at Poorman Road:

https://www.twtd.co.uk/ipswich-town-news/38520/ex-blues-defender-smith-on-trial-

Team yesterday v Gillingham:

1st half

Gerken
Scarlett Smith Eastman Clampin
McLeod Poku Stevenson Brown
Hasanally Harriott

2nd half

George
Welch-Hayes Marshall-Miranda Sowunmi Bramall
Kensdale Senior Chilvers Gambin Fernandes
Hutchinson

I am being generous with the line ups because you could make a case for "are we Scotland in disguise with a 4,6,0 formation!!!!!!!!

Glass half empty view - We're doomed without the addition of any strikers!

Glass half full view - Defence and Midfield "okish" but we're doomed without the addition of any strikers!

Essentially we have lost 6 key players and it shows in our selections.

Up the massively reduced strikerless U's

Second half keeper looked very competent, could do nothing about the goal, worth a contract of some sorts .

Poll: No half measure either 1 or 2 ?

How did Tommy Smith play? Many Ipswich fans would like him back but Lambert apparently is against.

4-6-0 it is then. There is a rumour on Twitter saying Norris is injured, and likely to be out for three months.

And the hits just keep on coming.

Harry Pell and Paris Cowan-Hall didn't feature either but hopefully their not injured as well.

The Poorman road outfit will clearly enjoy their two 75 minute games against the strikerless U's

Durham maybe our striker solution is keeper George as he once played as a substitute striker in a Liverpool team and won some sort of award!

Sowumni played up front for Yeovil on occasion too.

Great stuff guys why am I not laughing though?

For the last ten years we have been striker deficient but now we actually have none!

Up the forward thinking but no actual action U's was
