Chairman David Sheepshanks says a victory over Charlton at Portman Road on Saturday will put the Blues back in the hunt for a play-off place after last night s 4-1 defeat at Barnsley.
Catastrophic defending led to the Blues falling to a 4-1 defeat away at Barnsley. The Blues started brightly and went in front through Pablo Couñago, but a series of errors at the back gifted the home side a comfortable victory and Brian Howard a hat-trick.
Town s two-match away winning run came to an end as Liam Lawrence s fine 25-yard strike gave Stoke a 1-0 victory at the Britannia Stadium. The Blues were the better side before the break but fell away in a second half in which Jim Magilton was sent to the stand.
Jim Magilton will be looking to win three away games in a row for the first time as manager when the Blues travel to top-of-the-table Stoke City on Saturday afternoon. Magilton has a full squad from which to pick his side and may name the same eleven for the third successive game.
