#swfc full time thoughts:

Ainsworthing blew up in Ipswich’s faces second half when the game was there to be shut down by pouncing on our disarray. Seemed like an attempt to protect the lead that went wrong and a bit of wilting in a hostile atmosphere?
Very impressed by how regimented and disciplined Ipswich were particularly first half on and off the ball. Made us look second rate, and it definitely felt like A Plan was beating A Vibes Team, and justly so.
Even then it was two huge mistakes by Iorfa, when under little to no pressure, that meant they leave Sheffield with a point.
After teetering on the brink of losing our heads we got a set piece goal from that red mist forming and it coalesced with an increaingly hostile crowd, who really did not help the team today with all that coin throwing.
Embarrassing behaviour and had it happened a third time I reckon the ref would’ve marched off. And rightly so. Expect a sizeable fine coming our way, which should be passed on to anyone identified throwing things on the pitch today.
We had the best individual players today (and definitely the worst!), but Ipswich clearly had the better team. A fair way to go for us yet before we can lock in our sights on top two.

#swfc I really, earnestly hoped this was the time I'd read a Chansiri interview and it'd be different. Alas no. Petulance and an unwillingness to learn. And still without much idea what a Wednesdayite is, how we think [thread]

examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football… 1/26
The petulance on show: “'When something good happens it’s because I have supposedly taken a step back. When it’s not good, then it’s my fault'” and "The chairman offered an answer that suggested he felt he was going to be hit with negativity not matter what he did". 2/26
How is trust created? By people being trustworthy. When are people trustworthy? When we're vulnerable, like when we own up, in earnest, to having made a mistake.

#swfc I can see from @DomHowson's player ratings that him and eye did not see the game the same way at all, so I should probably have a longer think and calm down a bit, but writing relieves stress, so here goes:

Created our own downfall once again. 1/37
What on earth have we been doing on the training pitch for three weeks for these players to look MORE like strangers to each other than they did before the international break? 2/37
We're so, so easy to defend against if you shut down the wings as there are no central runs from midfield.

Notice how the penalty came about from Shodipo staying inside making a darting run in behind. 3/37

#swfc What a frustrating half of football. All blood and thunder from the start, blowing Shrewsbury out backwards in the opening quarter of the game, but, quite inexplicably, we've let them a poor Shrewsbury - calamitous in defence - back into the game and it's one all at HT 1/11
Shodipo tore Shrewsbury a new one down our left going either side of their sorry full back time and again and also drifting in centrally from where he won the penalty. 2/11
He also won the corner we scored from, Berahino allowed to step into the ball almost unchallenged to score. 3/11

#swfc Good things: There should be no doubt for these players that this sort of comatose laurel-resting, "big club going away to a lower league ground" sort of non-performance will see us crucified time and again, especially in this league, which has plenty of quality this year.
By some distance the worst we've been this season and at no point of the game did we have much of a handle on it. It looked like we were only seeing Plymouth's passes and movement 1-2 seconds after they were made and only then did we react to them.
We were so easy to play against: No organised pressure on their player in possession, so Plymouth given time to have player drop deep for the wall pass, swivel and run in behind onto a through ball from the first player.

#swfc Probably our worst half of the season so far. Plymouth showing everything we haven't: Tenacity, invention, movement, fluidity, connecting passes. (thread)
Plymouth have taken a leaf out of Rotherham's book and strangled our rythm by marking/pressing high when BPF is on the ball ready to distribute. I expect to see plenty more teams do the same against us considering how successful Plymouth (and R'ham) have been doing so.
There's a weird sense of passivity and lack of energy to us today. Byers, Wing have been bystanders too often and not adept at picking up the runs Plymouth make from central areas towards the sides that have been a simple, yet effective way to open us up time and again.

#swfc @KieranMaguire covers all the necessary ground in the article below from @AlexMiller91, and has even supplied headline numbers (), but I thought I'd jump in with some projections for 20-21 and 21-22 to sort of tie a knot on things in the thread below.
I'm currently deep into writing a season review/preview thing that also has a lot of financial data and analysis - obviously needs tinkering now the accounts are out 😜

Enough pre-amble, here are some charts:

Revenue likely to be halved in 20-21 and decrease further in 21-22:
If we add on transfer fees received (and what can be assumed to be compensation fee for Steve Bruce), as well as likely Covid 19 furlough compensation, we're up to £13.6m of income in 20-21, which is still half 19-20's:
