U18s Thrashed at Fulham - Ipswich Town News
An under strength U18s side lost 6-1 to Fulham at Motspur Park on Saturday morning. Midfielder Luke Hyam netted the Town goal.
The youngsters, who were without a number of regulars although with Connor Wickham up front, face the Cottagers again, this time at Portman Road, in the fifth round of the Youth Cup on a date yet to be set, probably next week.
