Crowe Joins Stevenage on Loan - Ipswich Town News

Blues keeper Michael Crowe has joined League Two Stevenage on loan until January 10th.

Wales U21 call-up Crowe spent time on loan at Woking last season when he made four appearances.

The 20-year-old has been on Town’s first-team bench on a number of occasions but is yet to make his senior debut for the Blues.

London-born Crowe, whose father is English and mother Norwegian, joined the Blues in the summer of 2012 from Kristiansand-based side IK Start, having been brought up in Norway. He qualifies for Wales through his grandmother.

Crowe is contracted to the Blues until the summer of 2016 with Town having triggered an option for an extra year on his contract in May.

Meanwhile, former Town central defender Tony Humes has resigned as manager of League One Colchester United after a run of one win in nine.

Former Blues youth player and academy coach Richard Hall - Humes's assistant - and ex-Town centre-half John McGreal are temporarily in charge.
