Town Confirm Hunt Deal - Ipswich Town News
Town have confirmed that Noel Hunt has rejoined the Blues on a deal until the end of the season, as revealed by TWTD yesterday.
Hunt, the younger brother of Town winger Stephen, initially joined the Blues on loan at the end of November, scoring the late, late winner after coming on as a sub in the 1-0 victory at Charlton.
The 32-year-old Irishman made a further three appearances from the bench before his spell came to an end prior to Sunday’s FA Cup tie at Southampton.
Hunt’s Leeds contract, which was due to run to the summer, was terminated by mutual consent yesterday.

McKenna: An Inevitable DecisionTown boss Kieran McKenna says it was an ‘inevitable decision’ for referee Stephen Martin to abandon the Blues’ match at Blackburn Rovers and expects to return to Ewood Park to restage the contest.
Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Ipswich Town - Match AbandonedTown look set to face a return trip to Blackburn Rovers later in the season after this afternoon’s game was abandoned after 80 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch with the home side 1-0 up and with the Blues down to 10 men. Jacob Greaves was shown a straight red card four minutes after the break for hauling down Yuki Ohashi, then Rovers skipper Todd Cantwell netted a penalty on 59, but the heavy rain had made the game increasingly farcical the longer it progressed and in the 80th minute referee Stephen Martin took the players off and then 25 minutes later abandoned it entirely.
