90+min: Corner to scum in 1st min of added time. Naylor clears.
90 min: 4 mins of added time indicated by the sub ref. Can we hold on ???
88 min: Naylor comes on for Magilton and takes his place in the back 3 with Holland moving to midfield
88 min: Naylor warming up as Bent tries to find Bowditch
85 min: Deano, Deano chant the TractorBoys at Carrot Rud. A very accomplished performance by the entire Ipswich team
82 min: Updates being interrupted due to series of emails, text messages and Yahoo Messenger contacts with your intrepid report. Big Fat Joe out of the dugout making sure his team keep their concentration
80 min: Scum make their last attempt with their 3rd and final sub. Kenton getting mouthy with Bent 'cos he's running rings round him. The ref has a word. I hate Kenton, he tried to slap Pablo at Portman Road as well
Crowd chant: We're skint and we're beating you !!!!
It's what we want to see:
  
74 min: Miller goes close for Town as the scum are in disarray.
71 min: WHAT A SUBSTITUTION. BOWDITCH INVOLVED AS WILNIS GIVES TOWN THE LEAD AGAINST THE FILTHY SCUM. AS A BONUS, FLEMING LOOKS TO HAVE PULLED A HAMSTRING. 1-0 TO THE TRACTORBOYS
69 min: England U-17 striker Dean Bowditch makes his debut as substitute coming on for Ambrose. What a game for his first taste of action in the first team.
More action:

67 min: Green gathers a long ball on the edge of the box.
64 min: Richards fouled by Rivers and crowd aren't happy with ref. Not a good enough ball by Ambrose. Green falls over as he takes goal kick - stupid Norwich &^*( (The emotion starts to get to the reporter)
59 min: Rivers forces a corner for the scum. Makin clears at far post.
58 min: Green flattens Richards but amazingly no penalty (and red card) is shown. Typical cheating scum
57 min: Ambrose breaks away, he was miles offside but the linesman was useless. Didn't matter as Kenton got back to challenge
More action:

55 min: Gaardsoe challenges Rivers but he dived
51 min: Now scum have a corner which is headed wide.
50 min: Ambrose takes another corner for Town but we don't score.
49 min: Bent heads a Wright cross just wide of Green's near post :-(
47 min: Rivers cross falls to McVeigh and Marshall makes a fantastic save from point blank range
46 min: Second corner is dropped by Green but ref gives a free kick - typical !!!
46 min: Bent earns corner. Magilton to take in front of the Town fans
45 min: Second half starts with the scum kicking off. No substitutes on for either team. Ipswich have possesion.

HALF TIME 0-0: TractorBoys have battered the scum and deserve to be leading. During half time, you will be entertained with various pictures from the build-up to the big kick off in Norfolk.
45+min: Goofy misses a sitter for the scum from 6 yards
45 min: Scum free kick 15 yards outside the box. Marshall makes a good save. 3 minutes of injury time.
42 min: Richards crosses to Bent but he can't control the ball
39 min: Another picture as TractorBoys show appropriate levels of respect to the scum

37 min: Kenton clears an Ambrose cross with Bent waiting to pounce
36 min: Bromby should have done better from a corner but he isn't going to be blessed with talent if Sheffield Wednesday are prepared to let him go.
32 min: Miller clogs Kenton, no card. Roberts clogs someone and should be off but isn't. Bent causing all sorts of problems for Bromby (which is a town in Denmark)
29 min: Our first action picture which shows very little.

27 min: Ambrose clogged by goofy Roberts. Trainer is on to treat wounded player for the 2nd time. Ref fails to send off the donkey and only gives him a yellow card
24 min: Town having majority of possesion as Wilnis crosses dangerously again. D Bent giving Bromby (on loan from Sheff W) a few problems
23 min: Corner to Ipswich which is eventually clear. Looks like technology is letting us down as 6 pictures have been sent from Carrot Road and none have arrived at TractorBoys.net yet.
21 min: Makin challenges Roberts on the edge of the box who dives like the gap-toothed freak that he is.
19 min: Holland heads a dangerous ball away as scum break quickly.
18 min: Message arrives at TractorBoys.net stating it's too loud to hear phone calls in the away end.
15 min: Richards does some good defensive work against Rivers
15 min: Ambrose gets into area after some good work from Wilnis, Magilton and Holland. Chance wasted when he should have done better.
14 min: Ipswich having some good possession and Ambrose looks comfortable after the kicking Fleming gave him.
12 min: Green saves well from Bent who took advantage of pub league defending from scum. Corner to Town comes to nothing.
11 min: Long ball hoofed into the box by the scum and Roberts gives away a free-kick. There's a shock.
10 min: Shot from Miller charged down. Town keep the pressure on.
 8 min: Green takes a cross from Magilton with Bent lurking.
 6 min: Ambrose still down - doesn't look good. Fleming got away with a quick word from the ref. Naylor and Reuser are warming up.
 5 min: Ambrose clogged again and the physio is on. How long before the ref sends some of the scum off. Marshall getting abuse (from the home fans)
 4 min: Healy hoofs a shot miles wide from 25 yards. Bright start for the scum who have already had 3 corners.
 3 min: Scum for 2 quick corners but Marshall safely catches the second one.
 2 min: Corner to Town, scum break dangerously but mess it up.
 0 min: Ambrose runs at defence from start and they clog him.
 0 min: Town to kickoff, playing left to right
 0 min: Players take the field

From Carrot Road:
13 mins to kick-off. Main disappointment of the day is I lost my bet for Vaughan to finish as top English batsman in the World Cup. Hopefully, the football will make up for it.
17 mins to kick-off and the atmosphere is building. Scum cheering every time Marshall catches the ball in the warm-up.

Pre Match Entertainment:
We've got a choice of two ways to help you enjoy the atmosphere before the big kick off this afternoon. The first is for those of you who fancy a brain teaser. The Ipswich Evening Star have on a small pub quiz online. There is no prize, it just helps you realise how little you know (for the record, TractorBoys.net scored 20 out of 30 so as you can see, it's very. very difficult !!!). Click here for quiz.

The second way to entertain yourself comes courtesy of Sky TV and the England Barmy Army. Simple tune in to the Cricket World Cup Match against Australia today and start singing this little song as a tribute to one of the most famous Aussie cheats players of all time...
