Let's hear from the Ipswich boss, Kieran McKenna.
There's no doubt it's took a lot of time to get this group together, with the loss of some big, big players, some big characters that we had at the summer to build this team.
But I think you see today it's a team that have improved and grown so much over the course of the year.
Again, to deliver a performance like that at this stage of the season...
against the team as good as them I think is a great sign for the growth of the group so yeah let's see it's going to go to the last game I think we definitely all would have took that at the start of the season being in our hands going to a home game on the last day so you know we look forward to that You're in the driving seat really it's QPR next early kick-off do you fancy your chances?
You have to respect every game in the Championship is tough and we've not had an easy game this year and I don't think we're going to have one on Saturday.
We'll respect the opponent, we'll prepare the game as well as we can but we believe in ourselves and we know that we can make Portman Road a formidable place and we're able to deliver good performances and if you do that you've got a good chance to win the game.

We're going to another tight stadium with a big atmosphere, against a team fighting for their lives, generally playing well, playing better probably than their league position and their points, and it's gonna be a big challenge.
We've got to recover well, get our energy right and make sure we're ready to go on Tuesday.
For me it doesn't matter whether it's April, whatever it is now, or September, how we operate, we genuinely do just focus on ourselves and the next game.
That's all the chat will be in the group in the next 48 hours.
You know in this division, it's about your consistency and your ability to go again and again and it's never more so on a run like this away from home on Saturday and Tuesday with the run of away games that we have.
The positive for me is that that's how we operate, and that's how we talk all the time.
Of course players enjoyed it on the pitch after and in the dressing room, but by the time they come out of that shower it will be about recovery, eating the right things, sleeping as much as possible and training and preparing well for Tuesday night.
That doesn't change for us now.
Reflecting on the two postponements at Portsmouth, having previously admitted the first was a particular frustration, McKenna added.
I think I've already said that it was, there's no point in going over it now.
It is what it is, it was at the time.
We have the game now it's ahead of us, and I'm pretty sure from the weather forecast we're gonna be good, so we're ready to take it on.
