Blues striker Jack Marriott marked his first start for loan club Woking with a goal, an assist and a sponsor’s man of the match award as the Skrill Premier side beat Dartford 3-0 at the Kingfield Stadium this evening. Town boss Mick McCarthy was at the game to watch the 19-year-old in action.

Marriott netted his first senior goal in the 63rd minute, then supplied the cross for ex-Cambridge man Scott Rendell to add the second 12 minutes later.

Joe McNerney completed the scoring in the 77th minute before Marriott left the field to a standing ovation with two minutes remaining.

The first-year pro, who was making his first senior start, will next be in action for the Cards in their home game against Hyde on Saturday.

After the game he tweeted: "Absolutely loved that tonight, great 3-0 win, a goal and an assist! Fans were unreal as well! Looking forward to Saturday now!!"

Meanwhile, David October played the full 90 minutes for Histon as they drew 2-2 at home to Oxford City in the Skrill North.

Mark added 22:34 - Nov 12 What's the Skrill Premier? Oh, the Conference! All this renaming is confusing. Anyway, well done to Marriott. Hopefully he can bang the goals in then go on loan to a higher level team. I suspect his chances at Ipswich might be limited with McGoldrick clearly a first choice, Murphy heading in the goals, Taylor back fitter and scoring last weekend, and Nouble favoured by McCarthy and scoring too Saturday.

SuperTommySmith added 22:45 - Nov 12 Excellent! Keep it up for the entire loan spell and then force your way into the team.

Michael11 added 22:47 - Nov 12 Great stuff! Hopefully he can kick on, grab a few more goals and come back next month high in confidence and ready to push for the first team.

BroskiBeen added 22:48 - Nov 12 Great! knew he'd be to good for that level, hopefully this month will give him confident and experience ready for a chance in our first team, he certainly knows where the goal is, if you can score in conference, you can score in the prem, Rickie Lambert is proof of that, the rest of his game will come in time, looks like we have a gem, btter not sellhim like Rhodes.

WokinghamBlue added 22:49 - Nov 12 Just got back following my Tuesday night football fix. Marriott was easily the best player on the park. He clearly has some pace, he's not afraid to shoot from tight angles, he made some good runs playing off the last defender, and took his goal really well. I'm pretty sure his second effort crossed the line but sadly the linesmen didn't agree. Very impressed with Jack, man of the match and standing ovation was very well deserved. Apparently Mick was there but I didn't see him, I'm sure he would of been impressed. On another note, WokingMike, it was good to meet you. Hopefully you agree with my comments above, see you down FPR soon WokinghamBlue

Sindre94 added 23:36 - Nov 12 Well done Jack. Alot of people (including me) were furious about this decision by Mick to send him out on loan, turns out it does the world of good for him to get some gametime and some goals. Hope it continues and that he can come back and have a future with us :)

MVBlue added 01:21 - Nov 13 This is good, we can see a pattern of Mick sending players out to clubs to gain experience and match fitness. He even seems to have them go to the right clubs. Its worked fine for Taylor at Peterborough, he hadn't played much for us. Marriott hasn't played first team, Wordsworth hasn't featured and is about to go on loan. I think Mick is staging them along a process towards first team football. He's a clever guy is Mick.

wokingblue added 08:12 - Nov 13 Great to meet you Wokingham! Spot on comments. Can't make the Leicester game on Saturday so I may even pop down to see Woking against Hyde. Let's see if Jack can reproduce the display!!

brian_a_mul added 08:46 - Nov 13 Its all about match sharpness and competitive game time. Well done Jack, already a fans favorite at Woking and Im sure it wont be long before your name is chanted at PR! He seems to have the right attitude to make it, MM loves this type of player. Imagine Jack and Taylor up front with Did in behind. That would create some buzz and excitement!

bluelady added 09:11 - Nov 13 I think only those lacking in any footballing brains thought this a bad move. With the kid having no senior experience, lacking in games and with the under 21s being frankly quite a awful able that helped build his game, his experience and his confidence was only ever goog to be a good idea... Will done big Mick seems you don't dislike the youth in our squad, instead you want to get the very best from them!

muccletonjoe added 10:14 - Nov 13 Players at all levels improve by playing above themselves not 4 leagues below , if his confidence needed improving - put him in the first team

bohslegend added 12:44 - Nov 13 Muscle toe you just want to have a rant at Mick don't you? Seems even common sense will be sacrificed by you in order to slate MM as much as you can.
