Woking's New Year's Day match at Salisbury City, the final game of Blues striker Jack Marriott's current loan spell with the Cards, has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

Marriott tweeted: "Gutted that the final game of my loan has been postponed, Woking is a fantastic club and the fans have been brilliant to me!"

Speaking yesterday, Town boss Mick McCarthy says the 19-year-old, who scored nine goals in nine while with the Skrill Premier side, will go back out on loan, either to Woking or ideally to a club at a higher level.

"I’d like him to get a Football League club but if that’s not the case, I’ll be on to Woking, I need to speak to them and he can stay there but we’ll see," he said. "If nothing happens he’ll just extend his loan.”

ipswichjames added 10:56 - Jan 1 This is a great opportunity for Jack to feature in the Preston game, playing against a league one side, we can see where he's at. Obviously Mick wants to send him out on loan to a team with higher credentials than Woking, so why not see what he's like up against League one opposition, whether that be starting the game or coming off the bench!

Hegansheroes added 12:13 - Jan 1 ipswichjames- a very good point. If he really is as good as everyone is saying why not give 25 minutes against good opposition. I think from what little I have seen of him he is & there seems little point in him playing at Woking's level. the sooner he plays against decent defenders the sooner he will mature.
