Marriott Nets on Third Woking Debut - Ipswich Town News
Striker Jack Marriott netted on his third debut for loan club Woking but was on the losing side as the Cards were defeated 3-2 at home to Kidderminster in the Vanarama Conference on Saturday.
The 20-year-old, who joined Woking until January 4th on Thursday having spent two spells at the Kingfield Stadium last season, headed home two minutes from time as his team staged a late fightback.
Elsewhere, Anthony Wordsworth and Paul Taylor were ineligible as their loan club Rotherham lost 2-0 at Town.
Frank Nouble missed Coventry City’s 2-0 home defeat to Preston North End due to a groin strain.
Freddie Veseli was similarly absent for Port Vale’s 1-1 draw at Bradford with a rib injury which is likely to sideline him for around another 10 days.
Young midfielder Jack Willbye was in the Bury Town side which lost 2-1 at home to Peacehaven and Telscombe in the Ryman League Premier Division.

McKenna: An Inevitable DecisionTown boss Kieran McKenna says it was an ‘inevitable decision’ for referee Stephen Martin to abandon the Blues’ match at Blackburn Rovers and expects to return to Ewood Park to restage the contest.
Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Ipswich Town - Match AbandonedTown look set to face a return trip to Blackburn Rovers later in the season after this afternoon’s game was abandoned after 80 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch with the home side 1-0 up and with the Blues down to 10 men. Jacob Greaves was shown a straight red card four minutes after the break for hauling down Yuki Ohashi, then Rovers skipper Todd Cantwell netted a penalty on 59, but the heavy rain had made the game increasingly farcical the longer it progressed and in the 80th minute referee Stephen Martin took the players off and then 25 minutes later abandoned it entirely.
