U18s Face Hammers - Ipswich Town News
Town's U18s face West Ham on Saturday morning at their Little Heath training ground (KO 11am). Earlier in the season, the young Blues thrashed the Hammers 5-1 at Playford Road with Liam Craig scoring a hat-trick and Cathal Lordan and Billy Clarke grabbing one each.
Clarke is three weeks away from a return to training after dislocating his elbow in the reserve game at Portsmouth, while fellow young frontman Darryl Knights will make his return to training in the next fortnight after injuring his ankle in the U18 match with Arsenal last month.
