Just three points separate Ipswich from Middlesbrough in fifth place, and Clarke said it was up to everybody to rise to the challenge, no matter their level of experience.

“I don’t think you can just rely on people who’ve been there and seen it and done it. Whether you’ve played one game or 100 games, everybody’s opinion is valued, and we’re all going to be called upon at different times,”

Ipswich Town: Dan Neil – Jack Clarke can make difference in promotion bid

By Total Football News

Ipswich midfielder Dan Neil says his old Sunderland team-mate Jack Clarke could prove the difference in their quest for automatic promotion.

The 25-year-old winger stole the show in Saturday’s draw with promotion rivals Millwall at Portman Road, breaking the deadlock with his 14th goal of the Championship season, only for the Lions to hit back in the second half.

Neil played 97 times alongside Clarke across four seasons at Sunderland

Clarke double sends Ipswich second

By Total Football News

Ipswich’s stay in the automatic promotion places could last just 24 hours as Middlesbrough, the side they displaced, take on Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium on Wednesday night.

But Kieran McKenna’s side are undoubtedly a team with real momentum, racking up their sixth home win on the bounce and taking 16 points from the last 18 available.

Kieran McKenna’s substitutions paid off as Jack Clarke bagged a late winner against WBA at Portman Road with his fifth goal of the season.

McKenna threw on Clarke, Ivan Azon and Jens Cajuste and all three combined to score within seven minutes.

Charlton defender Macaulay Gillesphey will perhaps count himself lucky not to have given away a spot kick in the opening minute of the match as he had a handful of Carlton Morris’ shirt when the Rams striker tumbled in the box.

An uneventful first half sprung into life late on with a moment of quality from the Addicks attackers, all started by a long ball forward from goalkeeper Kaminski.

But Luton held on, surviving a nervy six minutes of stoppage time, to go up to 22nd in the table – and to within two points of safety as they attempt to avoid back-to-back relegations.

Clark’s goal came just after the midpoint of the first half and was a deserved reward for an impressive opening 45 minutes.

An angled Alfie Doughty shot almost doubled the lead before the break, but

The following season he helped the Rams narrowly avoid relegation, and returns with them in a similar battle for survival.

“As soon as I heard there was a possibility to come back I was over the moon,” Clarke told Derby’s website.
