Big game for Salisbury at Ipswich too… a game that was always going to attract some heavy artillery.

Royalty at Portman Road - the last time we had Salisbury in the championship we scored in the 97th minute against Southampton on Easter weekend. Wouldn’t mind something similar on Saturday. I’ll be at Portman Road for the first time since December so hoping to see a win and a good officiating display. On another note, good to see Salisbury back from injury.

Busby back in the middle this week and a TV game for Macho Man.

Brilliant appointment for Howard, absolutely buzzing for him!

Great appointments all round!

Harrington riding solo in the VAR booth on Sunday! 😂 (Since been updated - Thanks Ben!)

Sam Allison could have fun after the FA Cup matches between these two the other season
