Collins in Reserves - Ipswich Town News
Town have named a provisional squad for tonight's home reserve game with the MK Dons (KO 7pm, Portman Road). Aidan Collins makes his return to action after a lengthy spell out after knee surgery.
The central defender was told he would be released by former boss Joe Royle a year ago but was offered another chance to prove himself by Jim Magilton.
Also included in Richard Hall's squad are Chris Casement and Scott Barron, while there is no place for reserves regular Darryl Knights, who is finalising a move to Falkirk.
Provisional squad: Barron, Brittain, Casement, Clarke, Collins, Haynes, Leabon, Moore, Peters, Plummer, Reason, Sito, Synnott, Trotter, Upson, Wilnis.
