Stoke 2-0 Town Tue 02nd Mar 2004 23:06 An uninspired Town fell to their second consecutive away defeat as Stoke ran out 2-0 winners at the Britannia Stadium.

Bart Out, Shefki In Mon 01st Mar 2004 13:56 Midfielder Chris Bart-Williams will miss Tuesday's trip to Stoke after aggravating his back injury in the 2-0 win against Preston on Saturday (KO 7.45pm). Better news for manager Joe Royle is that striker Shefki Kuqi is available after missing the Preston game due to a one-match suspension. |
Brown Fumes at Ref Sat 28th Feb 2004 18:38 Preston boss Craig Brown raged at referee Keith Hill after his side had been defeated 2-0 by Town at Portman Road. The former Scotland boss felt that Georges Santos had handled the ball prior to Tommy Miller netting Town's first goal. |
Town 2-0 Preston Sat 28th Feb 2004 18:22 Second half goals from Tommy Miller and Ian Westlake, his third in three games, were enough give Town a win against Preston North End. The visitors put up a dogged defence until Miller's close range effort on 71, Westlake netting his goal in injury time. |
Nash on Way Back Fri 27th Feb 2004 13:30 Irish central defender Gerard Nash has started progress towards getting back in action after his recent cruciate knee ligament operation. Nash is out for the season after picking up the injury towards the end of last year. |
Bart-Williams Returns Thu 26th Feb 2004 14:02 Town manager Joe Royle has an almost full squad to pick from ahead of Saturday's visit by Preston North End.

Joe: Break Was Good Thu 26th Feb 2004 09:31 Town boss Joe Royle has hailed his players' short break in Tenerife a success. The squad took the trip to the holiday island to recharge their batteries and bond. |
Murray to See Specialist Wed 25th Feb 2004 18:21 Academy midfielder Antonio Murray is set to see a specialist about a shin splints problem which has seen him miss large periods of this season.

Bart-Williams Misses Trip Fri 20th Feb 2004 12:51 Fabian Wilnis and Tommy Miller are both fit enough to be in the Town squad travelling to Burnley for Saturday's game, having recovered from shoulder and ankle injuries respectively. However, Chris Bart-Williams misses out on the visit to Turf Moor due to his back problem. |
