Few Changes Likely as Town Face Watford Still Looking for a Win Tue 20th Oct 2009 08:38 Boss Roy Keane looks unlikely to make too many changes to his team for tonight’s home game against Watford. The Blues go into their 13th league match of the season still looking for their first victory but having picked up no new injuries in the draw with Swansea on Saturday. |
Keane Yet to Make Keeper Choice for Swansea Clash Fri 16th Oct 2009 12:05 Roy Keane says he will decide later today whether to give new loan keeper Asmir Begovic his debut against Swansea on Saturday or whether to stick with Richard Wright. Portsmouth keeper Begovic joined the Blues on a three-month loan yesterday in the wake of Wright making a number of errors. |
Wherever Jaime Goes, Asmir Follows Fri 16th Oct 2009 10:21 It seems that wherever Jaime Peters goes Asmir Begovic follows, with the keeper’s loan move to Town seeing the pair team up for by no means the first time. Peters and Begovic have previously played together at various youth international levels with Canada and at Yeovil during their loan spells at Huish Park in 2007/08. |
Barnsley 2-1 Town Sat 03rd Oct 2009 17:15 Town faced injury time woe in South Yorkshire for the second time in five days as former Blues loanee Jon Macken’s goal gave Barnsley a 2-1 victory at Oakwell. The Tykes had gone ahead in the first half through Iain Hume, who later smashed a penalty against the bar, Liam Rosenior equalising for the Blues before the break. |
Keane Goes to Barnsley Still Looking for First Win Fri 02nd Oct 2009 12:26 Blues boss Roy Keane goes into Saturday’s game at Barnsley still looking for his bottom of the table side’s first league win of the season. The Town manager has no new injury worries with skipper Alex Bruce and long-term absentees David Norris and Luciano Civelli the only unavailable members of his squad. |
Sheffield United 3-3 Town Tue 29th Sep 2009 21:40 A last gasp Chris Morgan goal denied Town a deserved first win of the season and took them to the bottom of the Championship as Sheffield United came from two behind to draw 3-3 at Bramall Lane. The Blades had gone ahead through a controversial Darius Henderson goal but the Blues struck back through Jon Walters, Grant Leadbitter and Gareth McAuley, before Henderson pulled one back and Morgan equalised. |
McAuley Could Return at Sheffield United Tue 29th Sep 2009 08:45 Central defender Gareth McAuley could return to the Town line-up when the Blues travel to Sheffield United tonight still looking for their first league victory of the season. Town are definitely without skipper Alex Bruce, who injured his groin during Saturday’s defeat to Newcastle United. |

The Northern Irishman is back from his one-match ban but has a calf injury. |
