Stead Bristol City Move Off - Ipswich Town News
Striker Jon Stead is reported to have turned down his proposed move to Bristol City. The former England U21 international was due at Ashton Gate for talks yesterday with the clubs believed to have agreed a £200,000 fee.
Earlier in the summer Stead was expected to join former loan club Coventry City but that move collapsed after manager Chris Coleman was sacked.
