Davis to Miss Out? - Ipswich Town News
Town keeper Kelvin Davis is a concern ahead of Saturday's clash with West Ham. The new signing dislocated a finger in the closing stages of last night's 1-0 loss at Wigan.
Davis is undergoing treatment today and if the ex-Luton and Wimbledon man doesn't make it then Lewis Price could make his first start of the season or Joe Royle could even look to the out of favour Andy Marshall.
The Town boss says he could have new loan signings in by the end of the week. Royle, who described last night's performance as the worst since he came to the club, says he's looking for commitment from new signings: "We need to bring in players who are desperate to play for us. We find ourselves at the wrong end of the table and we need to address that quickly."
