Town Waiting on Wright Results - Ipswich Town News

Town are awaiting the results of a scan on Richard Wright's knee injury. The keeper was replaced in the first half of Sunday’s 2-1 victory at Cardiff after colliding with Michael Chopra and underwent the scan earlier today.

Boss Roy Keane told the club site: "Wrighty doesn't go down for nothing but we will know more when we have seen the result of the scans."

Elsewhere, Cardiff sub keeper Peter Enckelman has revealed that he was involved in a car accident the day before the Town game: "I had a lucky escape. My car left the road in very wet conditions on Saturday. The car may be written off, but the important thing is I wasn't hurt, although I was shaken up."

Meanwhile, Town midfielder Owen Garvan says the Blues can make a swift ascent of the Championship in the next few weeks: "It's a busy time but if we can get something in our away game [at Bristol City next week], it gives us a massive chance to push on with the two home matches to come.

"We know we have drawn too many games but if we can start picking up wins then you can soon shoot up the table and that's what we have to look at doing.

"The Championship is very tight and looking at the Cardiff game, you wouldn't have thought one team was in the top seven and the other down at the bottom.

"Cardiff are a good team but we came out in the second half and got on top of the game and I think we deserved the win. It's given everyone a lift and now we have to push on."
