Town boss Paul Jewell was spotted back at his former club Derby County this evening as the Rams lost 3-1 at home to Doncaster Rovers.

With new frontmen very much on his summer wish-list, Doncaster striker Billy Sharp will have caught the eye, scoring twice, as he did at Portman Road in the Blues’ 3-2 victory over Rovers in January.

Meanwhile, next Tuesday's home game against Reading is definitely still on after the Royals defeated Everton 1-0 in their FA Cup fifth round tie at Goodison Park.

If the game had ended in a draw, the replay would have been played next Tuesday, causing the postponement of Reading's visit to Portman Road.

TractorMan added 22:33 - Mar 1 Interesting if Evans was also there. Getting to see first hand who may be Jewell's top target in the summer perhaps?

MarkITFC added 22:57 - Mar 1 Billy Sharp - yes please , great player and knows where the net is , surley not to hard to sign only at Donny say 1.5 million would secure it ?

evansblue added 23:34 - Mar 1 billy sharp would be awesome. He has just turned 25 and scores for fun in this league. He is at just the right age for a step up to a bigger club like us. I think we will be looking to bring 2 strikers in with either scotland or priskin leaving

BlueBoots added 10:02 - Mar 2 "Town owner Marcus Evans is also reported to have been at Pride Park." ROFL - the footballing equivalent of not letting the missus go shopping with the credit cards by herself! I can't say I blame ME after Magic and Keano's spending sprees...

joe9087 added 10:09 - Mar 2 Funny how everyone wants Sharp yet when we played Donny at home everyone really laid into him...he did ask for it though! Would be a great signing if we could pull it off over the summer. He's perhaps wasted at Doncaster.

tractorboy2434 added 10:26 - Mar 2 He would be a good addition but my feeling is that we need 2 strikers as Priskin is a waste of time, will never score enough from the chances he gets.

bluechick added 10:39 - Mar 2 Sharp with Nugent perhaps??

blue_em_away added 11:48 - Mar 2 Donny will probably want 3 mil for him and we should get him for 2.5. Worth the money I feel. Already suited to PJ's and Ipswich style of football. Happy days!!

suffolkpoker added 11:54 - Mar 2 i would love it if we signed Sharp... one of the top strikers in this divison imo anything under £3m is a steal imo

RetroBlue added 12:33 - Mar 2 Yes Billy Sharp would be very good for own. Shame we wouldnt be the only ones after him in the summer though eh! And with Clegg's record of negotiating for players , I think we can safely say we wont be getting Billy Sharp !!

nysully added 13:25 - Mar 2 Now Marcus Evans is out scouting players, wonderful...

TractorRoyNo1 added 14:57 - Mar 2 sharp to get 20+ in a season, big risk, he failed big time at Sheff Utd PS - loved the game on tv last night, everytime Cole went near the ball the crowd shouted SHOOT!

TractorRoyNo1 added 14:58 - Mar 2 perhaps Badden Powell will be our next signing nysully added 13:25 - Mar 2 Now Marcus Evans is out scouting

bluelady added 15:54 - Mar 2 i think Sharp would be great BUT will we get him? will be plenty of champ teams after him and possibly the odd prem team. He is a prime age, coming to his peak and scoring a lot of goals at this level, will be a difficult ask but fingers crossed.

Garv added 15:54 - Mar 2 We don't want nugent! Sharp I can JUST about deal with. Blueboots - Magilton = Norris and McAuley. Beano = Leadbitter at £2.5 million and Priskin at nearly £2 million who has sadly been for the most part, a flop, and I don't rate Leadbitter very highly tbh.
