Ex-England coach Don Howe is with the Blues this week taking a couple of first team training sessions. Boss Jim Magilton met Howe when working on his coaching badges.

Magilton told the club site that the squad will benefit from working with someone with more than 50 years in football: "I met Don when I was doing my A Licence coaching badge and his knowledge of the game is so extensive.

"I have invited him down to the club this week to spend a couple of days with the players and the staff.

"He has looked at some videos of our games and will take a couple of sessions. I think it will be a great learning exercise for everyone."

Meanwhile, Prince Charles is at Portman Road today to recognise the Community Trust's wide range of schemes.
