Joe: Chances Missed Sat 25th Mar 2006 22:24 Town manager Joe Royle was disappointed with his side's finishing in their 1-1 with Hull. Strikers Dean McDonald and Alan Lee were amongst those guilty of missing good chances. |
Trio Miss Palace Trip Thu 16th Mar 2006 14:09 Ian Westlake and Jimmy Juan will miss Saturday's trip to Crystal Palace after picking up injuries in the 3-1 loss at Preston on Tuesday, while Richard Naylor is banned. Better news is that Jason De Vos, Scott Barron and Alan Lee are likely to play despite missing training since the Deepdale defeat. |
Fuller Starts Against PNE Mon 13th Mar 2006 14:12 Ricardo Fuller will make his second start for the Blues when they face his former club Preston at Deepdale in Tuesday's crucial play-off six-pointer. The Jamaican could play alongside Alan Lee for the first time, although the Irishman is not yet a confirmed starter. |
Wolves 1-0 Town Sat 18th Feb 2006 18:17 Town's eight-match unbeaten run came to an end as a Kenny Miller penalty won the points for the home side. The result was harsh on the Blues who had enjoyed the majority of the game, although rarely seriously troubling Wolves keeper Stefan Postma. |
Trio Miss Crewe Trip Mon 13th Feb 2006 16:21 Town will still be without injured duo Danny Haynes and Gavin Williams when they travel to Gresty Road to face Crewe on Tuesday night (KO 7.45pm). Midfielder Owen Garvan is also out, suspended for one match, and is replaced by Norwegian Vemund Brekke Skard, called into the senior squad for the first time. |
Town 0-2 Palace Mon 26th Dec 2005 19:23 Town's dismal season continued as Crystal Palace left Portman Road with a 2-0 victory. Jon Macken put the visitors ahead in the first half and Michael Hughes added the second from 35 yards after the break. Late on, Macken and Ben Watson both saw red but the Blues rarely looked like scoring at any stage. |
Joe Pleased With Defence Sat 17th Dec 2005 22:47 Boss Joe Royle praised the way his defenders repelled the aerial threat from Sheffield Wednesday after the Blues' last gasp 1-0 victory at Hillsborough. Royle added that he could bring in two strikers during the January transfer window. |
Two Miss QPR Game Thu 08th Dec 2005 14:34 Town will be without Kevin Horlock and Adam Proudlock when they face QPR at Portman Road on Saturday. Better news for manager Joe Royle is that Owen Garvan and Ian Westlake are back in training and are in contention for places on the bench. |
Town 1-1 Wolves Sat 03rd Dec 2005 19:47 A controversial Matt Richards penalty on the hour took the Blues to a home draw with Wolves. The game had been goalless at half-time but Colin Cameron put the visitors ahead with a wildly deflected 30-yard effort six minutes after the break. |
Proudlock Misses Out Thu 17th Nov 2005 14:11 Striker Adam Proudlock is out of Town's first ever trip to Coventry's Ricoh Arena. The on-loan striker jarred a knee joint in Monday's reserve defeat to Spurs. |
