The Ex-Files: David Johnson Wed 20th Feb 2013 18:33 In the fifth part of our new regular series, The Ex-Files, in which Blair Ferguson chats with Town stars of the past about their time at Portman Road and what they’re up to now, we catch up with David Johnson, the man whose goals fired the Blues into successive play-offs under George Burley’s management. |
Town Need Home Run Sat 16th Feb 2013 06:02 Town must look to cash in on home advantage, according to defender Luke Chambers, as they face two games in the space of just three days at Portman Road. |
Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Town Sat 09th Feb 2013 17:24 Former Blues striker Jordan Rhodes netted just after the hour to see Town to a 1-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers in a scrappy affair at Ewood Park. There was little between the teams in a poor game with the only goal somewhat fortunate, Aaron Cresswell clearing off the line from Grant Hanley and Rhodes stabbing it over the line off Blues keeper Stephen Henderson. |
Henderson to Return for Town at Blackburn Fri 08th Feb 2013 13:26 Boss Mick McCarthy will be forced into one change for Saturday’s game at Blackburn with keeper Scott Loach out with a sprained finger. On-loan West Ham man Stephen Henderson will come back into the side, while winger Lee Martin again looks set to miss out. |
Manager McCarthy Only Doubt for Boro's Visit Fri 01st Feb 2013 14:23 Boss Mick McCarthy has emerged as the only doubt ahead of Saturday’s game against Middlesbrough at Portman Road. The Blues manager has missed most of the week due to a bug with his assistant Terry Connor taking today’s pre-match press conference. |
Bristol City 2-1 Town Sat 26th Jan 2013 17:02 Former Town striker Jon Stead netted a last-minute winner for Bristol City as the Robins came from a goal behind to beat the Blues 2-1 at Ashton Gate. Mick McCarthy’s men had gone ahead in the first half through Daryl Murphy and ought to have been two in front when Lee Martin spurned a gilt-edged chance, but Steven Davies netted straight after the break and Stead claimed the three points in the final minute. |
McCarthy Could Make Changes for Trip to Bristol City Fri 25th Jan 2013 12:46 Mick McCarthy looks likely to make one or two changes to the Town side which disappointingly drew 1-1 at home to Barnsley as the Blues take on bottom-of-the-table Bristol City at Ashton Gate on Saturday. Despite the continuing bad weather this week, the game is not expected to be in any doubt. |
McCarthy: Barnsley the Better Side Sat 19th Jan 2013 18:32 Boss Mick McCarthy admitted that Barnsley were the better side and deserved a point after the Blues drew 1-1 with the Tykes at Portman Road. |
McGoldrick Looking Forward to Portman Road Bow Sat 12th Jan 2013 06:00 David McGoldrick can’t wait to sample the Portman Road atmosphere because he knows from past experience how special it can be. |
McCarthy to Return to More Familiar Side at Cardiff Fri 11th Jan 2013 11:51 Manager Mick McCarthy is set to return to a more familiar-looking side when the Blues travel to take on Championship leaders Cardiff City on Saturday, but is forced into making at least two changes from the team which lost 3-0 to Brighton in their last league game. Keeper Stephen Henderson has an ankle injury and DJ Campbell is back at QPR, while Patrick Kisnorbo, David McGoldrick, Aaron Mclean and Frank Nouble have been added to the squad since the New Year's Day defeat. |
