Jim Injury

Ipswich Town captain Jim Magilton is minor doubt for Tuesday game against Cardiff city with a calf strain.

The 35-year-old midfielder started against Nottingham Forest but was replaced at half time by Darren Currie after picking up a calf problem during the first half and will have treatment tomorrow.

Jim himself didn’t mention his injury during his post match interview, instead choosing to praise his team mates, Jim: “Getting the win was what it was all about today and then to put on a performance like that was fantastic and it hopefully gets us back on the winning road.

“Nobody hid and there was plenty of heart shown; everyone wanted the ball - it was great!

“To be honest, they couldn't live with us. Right from the first whistle, I felt the tempo was right; you get a feeling early on in a game and I felt that one goal would open a floodgate.

“More pleasing than anything was the way we went about our business today: to a man we passed the ball very well and we were all very positive. The true test of a team is when things are not going well and I always knew that there was character in abundance in our dressing-room.”
