Reserve Game On - Ipswich Town News
Town's reserve match at Watford on Wednesday, January 12th will take place as scheduled (KO 7pm). There were concerns that the game would be postponed due to the unavailability of a large number of reserve regulars from both clubs.
Clubs were required to release Academy players for a two-week break over Christmas but this will not affect the game at Vicarage Road.
With Town and the Hornets having relatively small squads, their reserve teams regularly include large numbers of Academy players.
