Wales manager John Toshack was at Ninian Park on Saturday watching the Blues against Cardiff City. Keeper Lewis Price was of primary interest, but Gavin Williams and prospective Welsh international Gary Roberts were also in action.

Toshack says Price has a chance to establish himself as his side's regular number one: "Last Saturday, I saw Lewis Price play for Ipswich against Cardiff. He's done well in the games he has played for Wales and, at 21, is another who can play for his country for many years."

Price has won three senior caps and Williams two, while Roberts is expected to confirm his eligibility to the FAW prior to the next Wales game in February.

Meanwhile, Town groundsman Alan Ferguson is said to be happy with the new Portman Road surface which was laid last week.
