Mathie Set to Join U's Today - Ipswich Town News
Former Town striker Alex Mathie looks like he will join the legion of Town old boys at Colchester. Mathie was released by Dundee United today and if no other club comes in for him seems set to move to Layer Road. Colchester manager Steve Whitton said: "I've spoken to Alex recently, but I was waiting for him to be released"
Mathie is now 31-years-old, but must fancy his chances of banging in the goals in the English Second Division.
Former Town keeper Colin Stewart has been called up for Scotland's U21 squad for the game with Croatia on October 10th. The goalkeeper, who never made a Town start before returning to Scotland in 1999, is currently on loan at Queen's Park from Kilmarnock.
Further to last night's report it is perhaps worth reflecting on the shot counts: Town: 42, Millwall 1. Says something about a) our strike-rate, and b) their intentions doesn't it? We also had 27 corners to their 2, another area which could do with much improvement from our lads.
In the light of last night's bizarre game we have added a new Town Topic where we can look back on some of the other strange matches of the past. Submit your memories here: http://www.ipswichtown.rivals.net/default.asp?sid=911&p=2&stid=7999649
