Midfield Choices for Joe Fri 12th Aug 2005 15:11 Town boss Joe Royle has decisions to make in midfield ahead of Saturday's trip to Leicester City. However, with only four fit senior defenders, his backline picks itself. |
Joe: We Had to Play Fish Wed 10th Aug 2005 03:21 Boss Joe Royle said he had to field loanee Mark Fish in the defeat against QPR despite the South African's obvious lack of fitness. Fish endured a nightmare first half in which the Blues conceded two goals before being replaced. |
QPR 2-1 Town Wed 10th Aug 2005 02:55 The Blues suffered their first defeat of the season as they travelled to QPR and lost 2-1. Kevin Gallen and Martin Rowlands netted as the home side dominated the first half, before Sam Parkin scored his first Town goal as the Blues improved after the break. |
Fish Town's Only Change Tue 09th Aug 2005 12:11 The Blues are likely to be largely unchanged this evening when they travel to QPR for their first away game of the season. Mark Fish will replace Jason De Vos at the heart of the defence but otherwise Town will line up as they did against Cardiff on Saturday. |
Town Hit By De Vos Injury Sun 07th Aug 2005 23:42 Town's limited defensive resources have been dealt a massive blow with centre-half Jason De Vos being ruled out for at least a month. The Canadian broke several ribs during Saturday's 1-0 victory over Cardiff City and is likely to be out for up to six weeks. |
Royle Praise for Price Sat 06th Aug 2005 19:17 Boss Joe Royle hailed Lewis Price after the young keeper made an outstanding save from Alan Lee in the closing stages of Town's 1-0 win over Cardiff. The Town manager was also impressed with the contributions of Jason De Vos and Owen Garvan, one of five Town debutants. |
De Vos a Doubt for Opener Fri 05th Aug 2005 12:17 Central defender Jason De Vos has emerged as a doubt for Saturday's season opener with Cardiff City at Portman Road. The former Canadian international suffered a dead leg in a collision in training yesterday. |
Woodbridge 0-1 Town U18s Fri 05th Aug 2005 09:47 Town's U18s recovered from their 1-0 defeat to Wolves at the weekend to overcome Woodbridge Town 1-0 in a pre-season friendly. Tony Boto scored the only goal in the 19th minute. |
Bowden on Redundancies Tue 26th Jul 2005 10:11 Chief executive Derek Bowden says the recent off-field redundancies at Portman Road should not be seen as a sign that the club's finances have once again become a problem. Bowden is happy with Town's current financial position and says that the reduction in staff numbers was aimed at increasing efficiency. |
Trialist Joins Leeds Sat 23rd Jul 2005 16:10 Recent Town trialist Rui Marques has agreed terms with Leeds United. TWTD reported on Thursday that the Angolan international, who played for the Blues in the friendly against Rangers, was set for a move to Elland Road. |
