The flicker of hope is still burning. That's the message from Ipswich Town star Darren Currie as he assesses his side's chances of reaching the Coca-Cola Championship play-offs.

The Blues' hopes were dealt a hammer-blow on Saturday when they lost 1-0 at Wolves - one of their main rivals for a spot in the top six.

Town are now eight points adrift of sixth spot with 11 games left and Currie told the Evening Gazette: "If we keep producing that kind of football we have every chance.

"Losing the game was a real sickener because we played so well, so much so that I would have been disappointed with only a point.

"But I'm the kind of person who likes to look on the bright side. There were so many positives to take heart from and that should act as a great inspiration for the rest of the season."
