Bolton Wanderers 1-2 Town Sat 01st Dec 2012 17:06 Michael Chopra netted his first goal under Mick McCarthy’s management in the final minute as the Blues came from behind to win 2-1 at Bolton Wanderers.

Town Likely to Be Unchanged at Bolton Fri 30th Nov 2012 11:30 Boss Mick McCarthy appears likely to select an unchanged side for Saturday’s game at Bolton Wanderers. Midfielder Luke Hyam is a doubt with a calf problem sustained in the 3-1 victory over Nottingham Forest, but McCarthy was confident that the 21-year-old would be fit to face the Trotters. |
Hunt on McCarthy's List Thu 29th Nov 2012 22:30 TWTD understands that Wolves winger Stephen Hunt is on boss Mick McCarthy’s wish-list of potential January signings. Hunt, 31, is out of contract at Molineux next summer, having rarely featured since StÃ¥le Solbakken took over as manager. |
Town 3-1 Nottingham Forest Tue 27th Nov 2012 21:59 Guirane N’Daw, Luke Hyam and Daryl Murphy were on target as Town climbed out of the bottom three by beating Nottingham Forest 3-1 at Portman Road. Forest keeper Lee Camp should already have been sent off before he and ex-Blues loanee Danny Collins failed to deal with a long ball and N’Daw netted his first goal for Town. Blackstock equalised for the visitors after the break but Hyam slammed in his first for the Blues after Campbell’s penalty had been saved and Murphy added the third late on. |
Hyam and Barnett Set to Start Against Forest Tue 27th Nov 2012 10:58 Luke Hyam and new loanee Tyrone Barnett are set to come into the Town side which faces Nottingham Forest at Portman Road this evening.

Orr Set for Debut at Leicester Fri 16th Nov 2012 15:23 New loan signing Bradley Orr will make his Town debut as the Blues travel to Leicester looking to climb out of the Championship's bottom three.
