Sell Out/Injury News/First Link of Summer - Ipswich Town News
Wednesday's crucial play-off with Bolton at Portman Road has been confirmed as sold out.
David Johnson's collarbone is still very sore after the clash with Mark Fish which saw him substituted on Sunday.
He will have x-rays on his injured shoulder today and is rated as very doubtful for Wednesday.
Tony Mowbray had a finger pushed into his eye socket during the incident with Dean Holdsworth which saw him replaced.
He has had tests to check that the eyeball wasn't scratched and has been given the all-clear and is training today despite bruising. He will be available Wednesday.
Town are this morning being linked with Birmingham City centre-half David Holdsworth. The Blues are reported to be considering a £1 million bid for the former Watford player regardless of which division they find themselves in.
Whingeing git Trevor Francis's side crashed 4-0 at home to Barnsley on Saturday and are extremely unlikely to progress to the Premiership. Probably the first of many rumours this summer so take the whole thing with a bucket of salt.
