U18s Complete Season Against Chelsea - Ipswich Town News

Town’s U18s complete their season with a home game against Chelsea at Playford Road on Saturday morning (KO 11am).

A victory for Russell Osman’s young Blues will see them avoid finishing the season bottom of their FA Premier Academy League group.

Meanwhile, Academy schoolboy Cemal Ramadan scored the winning goal as the Republic of Ireland U15s beat Austria 2-1 in their second of two away friendlies, the same scoreline as in the first. Ramadan will join the Blues as a full-time scholar in the summer of 2013.

U18s: Cropper, Jones, Bennett, Thorsteinsson, October, Meikle, Leddy, Scotcher, Winter, Timlin, Tiofack, Marriott.
