Subscriber only AFTER the anxiety levels rose dramatically in both team camps, two major factors were highlighted in the latest battle of Ipswich . The first was the match being played like a local derby despite a number of footballers from Western Pride and the Ipswich Knights having not engaged in previous club encounters. The Knights finished the stronger at Bundamba on Friday night but were unable to penetrate Western Pride s defence a second time to at least salvage a draw. We didn t have enough quality tonight, Knights head coach Andy Ogden said, reflecting on his team s 2-1 defeat on home soil.

Subscriber only THE Ipswich Knights are fast becoming the second half executioners in the Football Queensland Premier League 1 and FFA Cup competitions. However, while pleased with recent results, head coach Andy Ogden is working on adding more to those powerhouse finishes. After the Knights scored six second half goals in their latest 7-0 win over Holland Park, Ogden said his ongoing focus was for his team to make better starts. The Knights have only scored one goal in the first half in previous games before unleashing their attacking might. We are not coming necessarily from a losing position, Ogden said. But we are coming from a position where we think we can play better.

Subscriber only HAVING lost captain Jack Cabassi for the fast approaching season, Ipswich Knights head coach Andrew Ogden already has a new way to inspire his team. Ogden plans to build a leadership group for the 2021 Football Queensland Premier League (FQPL) season kicking off on March 13. With a mix of loyal Ipswich players and some quality recruits to choose from, Ogden is excited about creating more opportunities. Jack has been really good for us and that but we ll fill that void, Ogden said. I had a good chat to Jack and he basically thought he was getting on in his football career and Rochedale probably has a realistically better chance of getting to the NPL (National Premier Leagues competition) than we do.
