Birmingham City, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Cardiff City are under the spotlight in today’s notes. |
Colchester United 0-3 Town Wed 23rd Jul 2014 21:19 Frank Nouble struck twice and Jack Marriott once as Town beat Colchester United 3-0 at the Weston Homes Community Stadium. All the goals came in the second half after a lacklustre first period from the Blues. |
U21s Draw 2-2 at Cardiff Sun 09th Mar 2014 14:39 A young Town U21 side surrendered a two-goal lead but still took a point from their Sunday lunchtime visit to league leaders Cardiff City. Amir Berkane (pictured) and Alan Lee put the Blues ahead but they were pegged back with the Bluebirds equalising in stoppage time. |
U18s Beaten By Crewe Sat 01st Mar 2014 14:57 Town's U18 side fell to a 4-1 home defeat against Crewe Alexandra at Playford Road on Saturday morning with Irish winger Cory Galvin netting for the young Blues. |
Town 1-1 Barnsley Fri 01st Nov 2013 21:53 Barnsley sub Jim O’Brien’s 70th minute equaliser claimed his side’s first away point of the season at Portman Road. Daryl Murphy headed the Blues in front in the 41st minute with Town on top, but the visitors were the better side after the break. Aaron Cresswell was sent off after the final whistle for foul and abusive language after Town were denied a late penalty when Frank Nouble appeared to be brought down. |
Town 1-0 Barnsley - Half-Time Fri 01st Nov 2013 20:38 Daryl Murphy’s 41st minute goal sees Town going in 1-0 ahead of Barnsley at the break. |
McCarthy May Make Changes for Barnsley Sky Game Fri 01st Nov 2013 06:00 Boss Mick McCarthy may be pondering whether to make changes ahead of tonight’s live Sky game against his old club Barnsley at Portman Road. Town have been unchanged for six consecutive matches but McCarthy was disappointed with last week's display at Bolton even though his team picked up a point. |
Lee Delighted to Be Back Fri 13th Sep 2013 06:01 Former favourite Alan Lee refuses to rule out the possibility of returning to action for Town — even if he admits his chances are slim. |
Town 3-0 Millwall Sat 10th Aug 2013 17:04 Tommy Smith’s first of the season was sandwiched by two own goals as the Blues beat Millwall 3-0 in their first home game of the campaign. After a goalless first hour, Shane Lowry diverted an Aaron Cresswell ball past Lions’ keeper Stephen Bywater in the 63rd minute before Smith powered home a trademark header on 70 and Mark Beevers inadvertently converted an Elliott Hewitt cross with seven minutes left on the clock. |
Impressive U18s Beat Spurs Thu 25th Jul 2013 14:23 Town’s U18s produced a fine all-round performance to comfortably beat Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 in a friendly played in two 40-minute periods on Thursday lunchtime. Teddy Bishop (pictured), Matt Clarke, Rory Thompson and Shane McLoughlin were on the scoresheet. |
