Town boss Paul Jewell has handed new signings Paul Taylor and Daryl Murphy debuts for the Blues from the start against Huddersfield at Portman Road this afternoon, the Irishman’s third for the club, while Guirane N’Daw is on the bench. Jack Ainsley takes over from skipper Carlos Edwards at right-back with the Trinidadian out with a groin injury.

Taylor and Murphy are on the right and left respectively with Jay Emmanuel-Thomas and Josh Carson dropping to the bench having been in the side which lost at Blackpool and Carlisle. Full match preview here.

Town: Loach, Ainsley, Chambers, Smith, Cresswell, Taylor, Luongo, Drury, Martin, Murphy, Chopra. Subs: Lee-Barrett, N'Daw, Carson, Emmanuel-Thomas, Hyam, Murray, Scotland.

Stato added 15:28 - Sep 1 Clearly Jewell rates Luongo above Hyam. Will be interesting to see if he brings N'Daw on before Hyam later in the game. Would be great to see JET produce the goods if he is given a chance.

wkj added 15:50 - Sep 1 Well sadly at half time here at Portman Road suggest we are a weak team, the players have looked tired and sadly look like they lack hunger. I hope we see a better second half because so far this performance is in no way inspirational or any better than last year.

wkj added 16:40 - Sep 1 Much better second half, it's like a whole new team! We went from looking like we didn't wanna be there, to looking like we could win this by 3 or 4 more

ipswich61 added 17:07 - Sep 1 our defence is shocking,and its all down to paul jewell,he should have concentrated on the defence before transfer market closed instead of other area's,and to all you jewell die hard fans out there if you still think he's the right man to manage this club then your more deluded than i thought you were,and you can give me as many negative as you like about this post,cause there are at least 15,000 fans out there that agree with me as you are only a minority,and as for the attendance another p1ss poor showing

tractoreddie51 added 17:14 - Sep 1 bill shankly built from the back, in the knowledge that if no goals scored against, cant lose a game, the game has'nt changed that much, no improvement so far, plenty of excuses, can't see it improving.

NoelTheDub added 17:15 - Sep 1 we cant defend where is the cb were looking for since last year...we go a goal down every game get back into it and concede in the last 10min again.we clearly dont keep clean sheets so we still have that problem.we buy taylor and put him on the wing again what does scotland have to do to get a start 442 is the only way.carson and jet left out and rightly so in jets case but pj replaces them with 2 strikers in my eyes on the wings ....

TimmyH added 17:29 - Sep 1 Typical Ipswich I'm afraid, can't play a whole 90 minutes of football but much prefer a better second half like we had as long as we're not 3-0 down by half-time. 2-2 predicted as well, I think Huddersfield will have a better season then a lot of people think, I reckon top half for them.

Bob7881 added 17:53 - Sep 1 A full season to to find out we need a defence and he still cant see it. I can understand the reasons for Keanes appointment even though a big mistake but why oh why Jewell he hasnt got a clue.
