Duo Doubts - Ipswich Town News
Billy Clarke and Gavin Williams are doubts ahead of Saturday's home game with Leeds United. Clarke has aggravated his ankle injury, while Williams is feeling the effects of playing a number of games so soon after returning from his hernia operation.
Boss Jim Magilton told the club site: "Gavin's a bit sore and stiff at the moment, but that's probably down to the fact that he has played a lot of football in a short space of time after being out for two months.
"We will have a look at him in training but, hopefully, he'll be OK for Saturday.
"With Billy, he has taken another knock on his ankle and he's a bit more of a concern. He's only a young lad and we will have to be careful with him. It's important that if the ankle isn't right he gets a proper rest."
