Injury Report

Here's how we look as of September 1st:

ST Matthew Khan: 2-3 weeks
ST Chris Bryan: 2-3 months
MC Craig Smith: 9-12 days
MC Jean: 3-7 days
DC Aldrovandi: 2-3 weeks
GK Mason: 4-10 days

Excited to get Jean soon, debating whether to play Darcy and/or Kershaw a lot next to Constantino or run 1 striker formations some until Khan is back.

September Update

-- We play on the 2nd, 5th, 16th, 21st, maybe 23rd, 27th, 30th. We'll have a match against Sunderland on the 20th rescheduled for a Euro Cup Group Stage match on the 21st. League Cup 27th

-- The board is pleased with my leadership. "the positive atmosphere amongst the players" is the highlight, no negative, and the board asks for my patience while they figure out who is taking over.

-- We lost $633K last month.

-- Some offers are made for our players during August but no one freaks out when I reject offers. Gordon Donnelly remains unhappy and hopes to leave the club in the near future, everyone else is in great shape and happy to be here.

League Cup 3rd Round Draw

We're going on the road for the League Cup but we get a good draw, we'll be playing Hull in the Championship.

September 2nd, 2023

Ipswich @ Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest is 6:4 to win today, we're 13:8 to win. They've started poorly, 0-0-3 in league play. We're 7-3-9 lifetime against them. The road team has won the last four matches 1:0. Maybe we can continue that streak today and then break it at home later this year. They barely avoided relegation last year, finishing 17th. They have no top 10 EPL finishes during this dynasty.

GK: Capitani
D: Kirkland/Mattle/Bartlett/Jackson
M: Adagsmar/Clifford/Mills/Gordon
F: Darcy/Constantino

1': yellow for midfielder Avarmescu.

5': A few passes down the left and Kirkland all of a sudden plays a ball into the area from 40 yards away. Darcy is there, heads it.. and the keeper saves it and turns it over for a corner. We earn a second corner. That one is taken to the far post by gordon, Bartlett is there, wins his header, over the keeper rushing out and into the net! 1-0

9': We head a cross out of the area and try to turn it around on offense, Darcy loses the ball in their end though after he receives a pass, they get a clear cut chance out of our turnover but they put the shot wide.

19': Constantino runs down the center after receiving a pass 30 yards out. He passes ahead to Darcy, Darcy shoots from 20 yards out, its blocked, flies to the right, Neil Gordon is there and blasts a shot into the net! 2-0

26': Beautiful precision by Constantino, Clifford with a long pass from the midfield circle, Constantino with a shot from 25 yards out as the keeper is trying to come out, assuming Constantino will charge, his shot doesn't have a lot of pace on it, but its perfectly struck, no way the keeper can get to it and it rolls inches inside the right post, goal! 3-0

HALF: We rush to the half after that. We have 9 shots, 5 on target, they have 6 shots, 2 on target. Kershaw comes in for Constantino, Hughes in for Kirkland.

71': they score quickly here, a cross from the right side to the far post, MC Curtis wins the header for them over Mattle and he heads it in. 3-1

81': Hutchinson in for Gordon.

We coast to the end.

Nottingham Forest 1 : 3 Ipswich

Man of the Match: Neil Gordon (8.3)
Goals: Gordon, Bartlett (8.0), Constantino (7.9)
Assists: Gordon, Constantino, Clifford (7.1)
Notables: Capitani (7.3), Jackson (7.3), Kirkland (7.3), Mattle (7.1), Mills (7.2), Darcy (7.1)

Kershaw has a 6.0 rating, losing a few headers and having a clear cut chance saved.

Next up, the only team in the EPL that we've never beaten, Tottenham.
