HarryfromBath assesses the mood in the opposition camp ahead of Saturday’s Emirates FA Cup third round tie at Portman Road by delving into their forums.
Town are still waiting for their first win of the season after AFC Wimbledon scored deep in injury time to come from two goals behind to claim a 2-2 draw at Portman Road. Joe Pigott, who joined Town after leaving the Dons in the summer, put the Blues in front from the penalty spot in the 52nd minute after Wes Burns had been fouled, then Burns made it 2-0 two minutes later, before Ben Heneghan pulled one back for the visitors on 58. Town looked on their way to their first win of the campaign until Jack Rudoni scored a second for the Dons five minutes into injury time.

Dai Cornell saved a Joe Pigott penalty to prevent AFC Wimbledon from taking the lead, keeping the scoreline 0-0 at the break.
Cornell and Oli Hawkins were handed their first starts under Paul Cook and Teddy Bishop returned to the XI.
Cornell replaced Tomas Holy in goal, while Hawkins, who had made three sub appearances since the change of manager, was the lone striker with Bishop, who missed Tuesday s 3-0 defeat at Northampton as he was ill, behind him in the number 10 role.
The Blues were otherwise unchanged from the team which lost to the Cobblers with left-back Stephen Ward again skipper with Luke Chambers on the bench.
