Loanee Jonny Williams says he loved every minute of his time with the Blues. The Crystal Palace man joined Town at the end of February and went on to make 11 starts and two sub appearances, scoring once.

“I loved every minute of my time at Ipswich,” the 20-year-old Wales international told the club site.

“It was good to finish the season on a high against Sheffield Wednesday but it was a real shame we didn’t make the play-offs.

“I can’t thank the manager, Mick McCarthy, enough for giving me an opportunity and I’d like to thank everyone else at the club for making me feel so welcome.

“It felt like I’d been at the club ages and it was a great experience. The supporters were fantastic to me and Ipswich has a special place in my heart.”

McCarthy has said he’d love Williams to return for a further loan next season but doesn’t know whether that will be a possibility.

The player is similarly in the dark about his 2014/15: “I’m going back to Palace now and looking forward to that. My main priority is to get in the team there but who knows what will happen in the future. I don’t really know where I will be playing my football next season.”

MaySixth added 14:13 - May 9 Fair play son. His skill on the wing at Brighton to deliver the cross for the second goal was up there as best moment of the season.

Suffolk_n_Good added 21:34 - May 9 A fantastic player, who has kept us on the edge of our seats, what a goal against Derby, will live in the memory. An absolute delight to meet Jonnie as he got off the coach at Watford, had a picture with my son & a chat, can only hope we have the chance to see him in a Town shirt again, if not, wish him all the best in his career :)

Cakeman added 09:05 - May 10 Well done Jonny, your flair and skill on the ball were a joy to watch and certainly cheered up the supporters that I know watched you. It would be great to see you back if possible, if not next season then the one after when we are back in the Premier league! From what I have read, you conduct yourself in an excellent manner which is refreshing and without mentioning names there are certainly several other professional footballers who could and should take a leaf out of your book. Very best wishes Jonny for the future wherever you play (not in a Budgie coloured shirt though please!)

planetblue_2011 added 09:53 - May 10 Sign him up on a season long loan at least. He's what we need in midfield or his attacking role behind the striker. Be great player for us if we get him! COYB!!

BlueandTruesince82 added 15:23 - May 10 Class all round. A player interested in actually playing as opposed to luving the life like Taylor. Proof that its down to attitude with Big Mick. Come vack Joniesta, the Town loves you

Ebantiass added 11:39 - May 11 Absolutely as everyone else has written a great player and a decent man off the pitch. Would love to see you here at PR next season for at the very least a season long loan.
