Millwall 0-0 Town Mon 01st Apr 2013 15:32 Town claimed their fourth point of the two Easter fixtures as their trip to Millwall ended in a 0-0 draw. Luke Hyam and Michael Chopra both had chances for Town, while Lions defender Shane Lowry came closest to breaking the deadlock when he struck the outside of the post with a freekick in the second half. |
McCarthy Weighing Up Changes For Millwall Trip Mon 01st Apr 2013 06:00 Boss Mick McCarthy has been weighing up whether to make changes to his starting XI ahead of today’s visit to his old club Millwall (KO 3pm). The Blues manager was pleased to be in the position to rest some of his regulars during the second half of Saturday’s 3-0 home victory over Leeds. |
Town 3-0 Leeds United Sat 30th Mar 2013 17:01 David McGoldrick scored twice and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas once as Town beat 10-man Leeds 3-0 at Portman Road. The visitors had been on top until defender Tom Lees was red-carded for a reckless challenge on Jay Tabb just after the half hour, McGoldrick netting either side of the break and sub Emmanuel-Thomas completing the scoring. |
McCarthy: Squad Looking Sharp and Focused Fri 29th Mar 2013 06:00 Manager Mick McCarthy says his squad look “sharp and focused” as they go into the first fixture of the Easter period, Saturday’s home game against Leeds United, the club he supported as a boy. |
Town 1-0 Bolton Wanderers Sat 16th Mar 2013 17:16 Skipper Carlos Edwards netted in the 88th minute to see the Blues to a crucial 1-0 victory over Bolton at Portman Road. Town should have been ahead in the first half, Andy Drury missing the best opportunity, while the visitors improved in the second half but rarely threatened Stephen Henderson’s goal. |
Chopra and Stearman Back for Bolton Clash Fri 15th Mar 2013 14:46 Michael Chopra and Richard Stearman will be back in the Town side for Saturday’s home game against in-form Bolton Wanderers. Left-back Aaron Cresswell is expected to be fine, despite suffering an ankle problem in training, but right-back Elliott Hewitt and striker Frank Nouble both miss out due to injuries. |
Peterborough 0-0 Town Sat 09th Mar 2013 17:03 Frank Nouble came closest to breaking the deadlock as the Blues’ trip to Peterborough ended in a 0-0 draw. The January signing from Wolves struck the woodwork from 25 yards and then forced Posh keeper Bobby Olejnik into a fine save during the first half. |
Tabb, Hewitt and Nouble Start at Peterborough Sat 09th Mar 2013 14:16 Jay Tabb makes his Blues debut, Frank Nouble his first Town start and Elliott Hewitt his first Blues start in the league in today’s crucial relegation six-pointer at Peterborough. Skipper Carlos Edwards is only considered fit enough for a place on the bench due to the groin injury that saw him miss the midweek trip to Nottingham Forest, while Michael Chopra is out with a dead leg and Lee Martin and Richard Stearman are suspended. |
