Town After Repeat of McCarthy's First Game Tue 19th Aug 2014 06:00 Town boss Mick McCarthy will be looking for the Blues to claim their first away win of the season when they take on Birmingham City at St Andrew’s this evening (KO 7.45pm). Only Cameron Stewart (broken jaw) and Stephen Hunt (calf) have missed the trip to the Midlands through injury. |
McCarthy: We Deserved Something From the Game Sat 16th Aug 2014 18:24 Town boss Mick McCarthy felt his side did enough to take something from their 1-0 defeat at Reading, but failed to take their chances or make the most of dangerous positions. |
Reading 1-0 Town Sat 16th Aug 2014 17:05 Reading midfielder Jake Taylor’s first-half goal was enough to see his side to a 1-0 victory over the Blues at the Madejski Stadium. Taylor seized on a David McGoldrick error in the 26th minute, with Tyrone Mings going closest for Town when he hit the bar with a header in injury time. |
McGoldrick Starts at Reading Sat 16th Aug 2014 14:44 Striker David McGoldrick returns to the Town starting line-up for Balint Bajner, but manager Mick McCarthy otherwise names the same team which began last week's 2-1 victory over Fulham. |
McCarthy: Same Performance But Better Result Fri 15th Aug 2014 14:39 Boss Mick McCarthy is looking for a repeat of last year’s performance at Reading but with a better result when the Blues visit the Madejski Stadium on Saturday afternoon. McCarthy, who has added Derby striker Conor Sammon to his squad on loan, will be able to call on all the players who missed the trip to Crawley in the week, except midfielder Cole Skuse, who is a doubt with a foot problem, and longer-term absentees Stephen Hunt and Cameron Stewart. |
Skuse a Doubt for Reading Trip Thu 14th Aug 2014 14:48 Midfielder Cole Skuse is a doubt ahead of Saturday’s visit to Reading but all the other players who were ruled out of the Capital One Cup defeat at Crawley on Tuesday will be fit to face the Royals. The Blues were without 10 senior players at the Broadfield Stadium, largely due to minor niggles sustained in last weekend’s opening day victory over Fulham. |
Big Season for Tyrone Thu 14th Aug 2014 06:00 Town boss Mick McCarthy believes 21-year-old left-back Tyrone Mings has a big season ahead of him following Aaron Cresswell’s departure for West Ham for £3.75 million last month. Former Chippenham Town man Mings started last Saturday’s 2-1 home win against Fulham before being rested for Tuesday’s Capital One Cup defeat at Crawley. |
Trio Make Debuts at Crawley Tue 12th Aug 2014 19:10 Town hand the expected debuts to 17-year-old Matt Clarke, keeper Bartosz Bialkowski and winger Alex Henshall, while Jack Marriott and Kevin Bru make their first Blues starts and there’s a rare start for transfer-listed Paul Taylor in tonight’s Capital One Cup first round tie at Crawley. |
Mings: Fulham Win Showed What We're All About Mon 11th Aug 2014 06:00 Left-back Tyrone Mings believes Saturday’s live-on-Sky 2-1 victory over former Premier League side Fulham will have shown the rest of the Championship what Town are all about. |
Town 2-1 Fulham Sat 09th Aug 2014 19:18 David McGoldrick came off the bench to score the decisive goal as Town beat Fulham 2-1 in their opening day fixture at Portman Road. McGoldrick added to Daryl Murphy’s first-half goal in the 61st minute with Tim Hoogland pulling one back late on for the visitors. |
