Young Ipswich Town striker Billy Clarke says he loved making his senior debut for Town against Cardiff City last night.

The 17–year-old came on for Jim Magilton after 65 minutes but only lasted 20 minutes before being replaced by Darren Currie.

Clarke: “It was short and sweet but I totally loved making my debut, hopefully it will be the first of many games.

“The goal which Jimmy scored with a great free-kick came when their lad tripped me from behind so I played a small part.

“It was disappointing to come off but the manager said it was tactical and I understand.

“It was just brilliant to be involved. The whole thing, travelling up, getting stick off the lads who were fabulous towards me and helped me relax.”
