Delaney in Reserves Facing Luton - Ipswich Town News

Central defender Damien Delaney will be in the reserves side taking on Luton at Playford Road this afternoon (KO 1pm). The Irishman was left out of the Town 18 for Saturday’s home defeat to Swansea having been available after his one-match ban.

Luciano Civelli, Shane O'Connor, Colin Healy, Tom Eastman and Ronan Murray are also in Chris Kiwomya’s squad.

Towards the end of last week manager Roy Keane said striker Connor Wickham might be fit enough to be involved after his thigh injury.

The game was originally down to be played at Barton Rovers’ Sharpenhoe Road before being moved to the Blues’ training ground last week.

Town currently sit in fifth in the Totesport.com Football Combination East Division, having won only one league game this season.
