Ipswich Town fans have their say on the Tractor Boys' automatic promotion chances.

[BBC] Earlier we asked what you thought of Ipswich Town's chances of automatic promotion from the Championship after Tuesday's shock defeat at Portsmouth, with big games to come against Middlesbrough and red-hot Southampton, who are in the thick of the fight to finish in the top-two. Here are some of your responses: Paul : We need 10 points from five games. No reason to panic.

We'll beat Boro on Sunday - it's the away form that could be our downfall. Too many times we've failed to match the work rate and intensity of our opponents on our travels. Andrew : It's in our own hands.

Do the team think it's worth fighting for? On last night's performance the answer is no! Daniel : I'd say we're still favourites.

Boro look unlikely to turn around their woeful form, and if we can beat them, then we'll be in a great position. Southampton are a great side, but realistically, they'd need to go 16 games unbeaten, 10 straight wins, to feasibly have a chance to beat us to it. And if they do that, then honestly, there's not much we can do but respect it, and prep for the play-offs.
