I've seen their team under Lambert. They'll play for a point in both games

They have no real quality and even the likes of Hanley and Sargent are going to look very good against what they have.
The games are bound to be very physical but I genuinely can't see them making any waves at all in a league which has avoided them for so long.

      - Keeping hold of manager major challenge for them (n/m) (NCFC) - revsimon, Jun 22, 11:36:36
      - Don't see it that way at all. Four years in League One tells me that (n/m) (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 10:54:26
        
        Mainly under different ownership and they are are no longer in league 1! (NCFC) - megson, Jun 22, 11:07:51
        
        they didn't even come top (NCFC) - paulg, Jun 22, 11:16:16
        
        To be fair, what I see from their fans is mostly expecting a season of consolidation (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 11:17:30
        
        There is a lad here who is utterly convinced they will finish AT LEAST in the P/O (NCFC) - megson, Jun 22, 11:34:41
        
        Aarons wouldn't go into Portman Road to piss (n/m) (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:39:22
        
        100% he got a bit miffed when I laughed out loud. Little rude but genuinely caught (NCFC) - megson, Jun 22, 11:43:02
        
        I hope Max gets an overseas move in a way (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:50:28
        
        Yeah agree (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Jun 22, 13:32:18
        
        Leicester, Leeds, Southampton, Coventry, Us...top ten seems very unlikely (n/m) (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:23:28
        
        Things are very different now compared to 10 years ago (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 11:15:06
        
        i agree - they'll be mulched by the 3 relegated from the prem (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Jun 22, 11:18:31
        
        Think Ipswich have cash to spend though (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Jun 22, 11:17:44
        
        They lost nearly £13 million last year. They wont be cash rich (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:31:31
        
        I think you're wrong about that (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 11:36:09
        
        The sums needed now must be well beyond their risk tolerance though (NCFC) - CWC, Jun 22, 13:05:12
        
        That would constitute a huge ROI but is it anything more than a pipe dream? (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:45:53
        
        I keep hearing that.... but how much are we talking? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 11:28:17
        
        That is a good point. (n/m) (NCFC) - megson, Jun 22, 11:37:02
        
        The Maddison sell-on alone is likely to yield £8-£10 million. (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:35:08
        
        hahahahahahahaha (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Jun 22, 12:24:54
        
        There's no way our sell on is that big (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 11:38:18
        
        He'll probably go for £40-45m (NCFC) - jamesward, Jun 22, 12:25:39
        
        I reckon Sunderland levels are not unreasonable (NCFC) - jamesward, Jun 22, 11:31:12
        
        Yes, could be - I don't really know how good the players they already have are (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 11:46:15
        
        I've seen their team under Lambert. They'll play for a point in both games (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jun 22, 11:14:09
        
        will hanley ever play again for us .... i'm not sure (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Jun 22, 11:16:51
      - It's way too early to reach that conclusion (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jun 22, 10:39:22
    - We will either be doing ok or have a new manager by the time that game comes around (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Jun 22, 09:43:52
