Changes Likely for Swansea Trip Fri 26th Mar 2010 11:47 Town boss Roy Keane has hinted at changes to his side for Saturday’s visit to Swansea’s Liberty Stadium. Keane was disappointed with Tuesday’s “sluggish” display as the Blues lost 2-0 at home to Plymouth. |
Town 0-2 Plymouth Argyle Tue 23rd Mar 2010 21:40 Uninspired Town fell to their first home defeat since September as Paul Mariner’s Plymouth left Portman Road with a 2-0 victory. Bradley Wright-Phillips and Joe Mason seized on dreadful defensive errors in either half to claim all three points for the visitors. |
Delaney Set to Keep Place At Watford Tue 16th Mar 2010 08:55 Central defender Damien Delaney will keep his place in the Town side when the Blues take on Watford at Vicarage Road after Saturday's red card was rescinded. Town welcome back midfielder Grant Leadbitter after his two-game ban, while Daryl Murphy is a doubt after suffering double vision during the 1-0 victory over Scunthorpe at the weekend. |
Town 1-0 Scunthorpe United Sat 13th Mar 2010 17:10 Connor Wickham struck his first league goal for the Blues in injury time to give Town a dramatic 1-0 win over Scunthorpe at Portman Road with both sides ending the game with 10 men. Until the goal, the Blues had been frustrated by an almost entirely negative display by the Iron, who had Cliff Byrne red-carded for an off the ball elbow on Jack Colback. Later, Damien Delaney was more harshly sent off for a trip on halfway. |
Colback to Move to Midfield for Cardiff Clash Tue 09th Mar 2010 05:00 Town manager Roy Keane looks set to switch Jack Colback to central midfield when the Blues face Cardiff at Portman Road this evening.

Blackpool 1-0 Town Sat 06th Mar 2010 18:18 Town were once again left ruing missed chances after a Jason Euell goal gave Blackpool a 1-0 victory at Bloomfield Road. A mistake from Gareth McAuley allowed Euell to net the winner in the second half, but the Blues had more than enough opportunities to get back on terms and go ahead later in the half. |
Keane Waiting on Trio Ahead of Blackpool Trip Fri 05th Mar 2010 13:21 Boss Roy Keane will assess the fitness of defensive trio Damien Delaney, Gareth McAuley and David Wright in training today before deciding on his side for Saturday’s game at Blackpool.

Peterborough 3-1 Town Tue 16th Feb 2010 22:10 Town’s dismal season got even worse as Peterborough deservedly came from behind to beat the Blues 3-1 at London Road. Daryl Murphy’s third goal in three games put Town in front with the Blues comfortable before the break but having missed chances, however, in the second half the Posh hit back with goals from Liam Dickinson, Lee Frecklington and Craig Morgan. |
Keane Promises Changes for Trip to Peterborough Tue 16th Feb 2010 08:20 Boss Roy Keane says he will make changes to his team ahead of tonight’s trip to bottom-of-the-table Peterborough despite the Blues defeating QPR 2-1 at Loftus Road in their last game. Keane says he picked that side — with Jack Colback and Jaime Peters surprisingly but successfully used at full-back — purely for the Rangers match. |
