Striker Billy Clarke could be fit enough to face Norwich City in Sunday's East Anglian derby. The young Irishman picked up a knee injury in the 1-1 draw at Plymouth.

Town's head of sports science Dave Williams told the club site: "Billy's rehab is coming along and he is twisting and turning now.

"Hopefully, he will be back in training on Friday and that will give him a chance of being available for the Norwich match."

Keeper Shane Supple is expected to recover from his groin strain and Danny Haynes's hip problem is likely to be better in time to add to his derby goals total.
