Ipswich Town turned in a disappointing performance on Tuesday night, drawing 0-0 at home with Northampton Town.

The Tractor Boys have been poor under Paul Lambert of late, winning just two of their previous seven games before welcoming Northampton to Portman Road.

Ipswich couldn’t win this game either, only managing a 0-0 draw as Flynn Downes was sent off in injury time.

The game saw Josh Harrop make his first start for Ipswich since arriving on loan from Preston in January, having previously made two substitute appearances.

The 25-year-old only lasted 59 minutes on his debut, making little impact as Ipswich only managed one shot on target.

Preston are looking for the playmaker to find some form and consistency with his move to Ipswich, but fans didn’t seem impressed with his full debut.

Some feel that Harrop is no better than what Ipswich already have, at least based on his performance last night.

Others suggest that he did nothing and was a passenger, which really isn’t what Preston want to see; let’s hope he finds some form soon once his match sharpness improves.
