Wolves 1-1 Town Sat 19th Apr 2008 18:01 Town's play-off hopes are still just about alive after Tommy Miller's injury time freekick grabbed a vital point at Wolves. The first half had been goalless, then after the break Sylvan Ebanks-Blake put the home side ahead with a shot from 20 yards. |
Bruce OK For Crucial Wolves Clash Fri 18th Apr 2008 10:43 Central defender Alex Bruce will be fit to take his place in the Town side which takes on Wolves in Saturday's crucial play-off clash after recovering from the hamstring problem which forced him during Sunday's derby 2-1 victory over Norwich City. |

Sun 13th Apr 2008 16:08 Boss Jim Magilton joked that he would have strangled matchwinner Danny Haynes had Norwich City managed an equaliser in Sunday's 2-1 victory over the Canaries at Portman Road.

Town 2-1 Norwich City Sun 13th Apr 2008 15:41 Danny Haynes was once again the derby day hero, first creating an own goal for Norwich defender Alex Pearce, then scoring the second himself as Town defeated the Canaries 2-1 at Portman Road. The Blues deserved to win much more comfortably, having dominated after Ched Evans had put the visitors ahead in the fourth minute. |
Pablo Set to Return for Derby Fri 11th Apr 2008 11:22 Striker Pablo Couñago looks set to come straight back into the Town side for Sunday's home derby with Norwich City after completing his three-match ban (KO noon).

Colchester 2-0 Town Sat 05th Apr 2008 20:00 Town's play-off hopes were dealt a major blow after Colchester United defeated them 2-0 at Layer Road.

Duo Not Yet Ruled Out of Colchester Trip Fri 04th Apr 2008 11:01 Town are still to rule out midfielder David Norris and striker Shefki Kuqi ahead of Saturday's clash with Colchester United. Boss Jim Magilton is unlikely to make too many changes to the side which drew 0-0 with QPR a week ago. |
