Saturday 20 November 2021, Norwich CBS 0 Lakenheath 3 - FA Vase, 2nd Round, The Nest
Norwich are playing on the other side of the city for a few months, and they have chosen well for a temporary home - nice café, good car parking, modern G4 pitch and a few odd seats - just ignore the Norwich City link and it is OK.
Game wise, they were never in it- with the visitors blowing them away in the first half, very impressed with Lakenheath.
Saturday 13 November 2021, Ipswich Town 0 Oxford United 0 - League One, Portman Road
The visitors started well and were on top in first 10 minutes and the rest of the first half saw good football by both teams, however the second half was a different story!
Ipswich on top and Oxford using every excuse in the book to time waste/cheat - but in the end they got what they wanted - a point!
Thursday 11 November 2021, Haverhill Rovers Under 18s 0 Ipswich Town under 16s 5 - Suffolk FA Under 18 Midweek Cup, New Croft
A good win for the young Town players, much younger than their opponents but at times a class apart and obviously had gears to go up if needed, test is how many will go on and make a living in the game.
Tuesday 9 November 2021, Ipswich Town 0 Colchester United 0 ( 4-3 on penalty kicks) - Portman Road, Papa John's Trophy, Southern Group A
A win, and a chance to say a proper farewell to our 'old'; skipper- Luke Chambers and also to look at the new art work at the back of the Sir Bobby Robson/North Stand. Not sure Bobby would have been that impressed with the game.
Saturday 6 November 2021, Ipswich Town 1 Oldham Athletic 1 - FA Cup 1st Round, Portman Road.
Early goal fast start- looked so promising, then soft equaliser and in the end lucky to get a replay when Oldham miss a penalty! Maybe we will win the replay and win at home in the second round!!!
Monday 1 November 2021, Ipswich Town under 23s Colchester United Under 23s - Professional Development League Two, Portman Road
With the news that Kieron Dyer may require a liver transplant it was good to see his team win, with Kieron able to watch from the Director's Box.
He would have been pleased with the first half but maybe less so with the second which became scrappy.
