Jewell Tight-Lipped on Collins - Ipswich Town News

Blues boss Paul Jewell is remaining tight-lipped on whether Stoke defender Danny Collins will be joining Town on loan. The 31-year-old was left out of the Potters’ 25-man Premier League squad on Friday and has been made available for loan.

Jewell said: "It’s not really my remit to talk about other players. He’s a good player and we did enquire after him, but as I have said on numerous occasions, we have made lots of enquiries.

"We are considering lots of options and I don’t think it is wise for me to talk about other players because if I ring Tony Pulis up, he might get the needle that I spoke about one of his players and if I wanted to do [a deal], he might not.”

Football League clubs are able to bring players in on loans of up to 93 days from Thursday.

Meanwhile, staff at Planet Blue have revealed that they came close to running out of Ls and the number one for the back of replica shirts in the days after Jimmy Bullard's return.
