Garvan in Reserves - Ipswich Town News
Midfielder Owen Garvan is included in the squad for this afternoon's reserve game with Norwich City at Playford Road (KO 2pm). The Irishman is only likely to play some of the game as he continues his recovery from his post-viral syndrome, as he did in last week's 1-1 friendly draw with Colchester United.
Also in the squad are Danny Haynes, Darren Currie, Sito, Jaime Peters and Darryl Knights, who will want to continue his record of six goals in his last three competitive reserve games.
Czech keeper Jaroslav Drobný will make his first Pontins Holidays Combination League East Division appearance for the second string after joining on a short-term spell as cover for the injured Lewis Price.
Admission is £5 for adults, while concessions and juniors can enter for free via the main Playford Road gate. Parking on a first-come, first-served basis is available in Bent Lane.
Squad: Barron, Currie, Drobný, Garvan, Haynes, Knights, Krause, Moore, Peters, Reason, Rhodes, Short, Sito, Smith, Synnott, Upson.
