Old Boy and Loanee News - Ipswich Town News

Former Town midfielder Steve Sedgley has resigned from his position as manager of Ryman League Kingstonian while a former youngster is also on the move.

Stuart Niven has left cash-strapped Barnet by mutual consent after hardly featuring this season. Niven made two appearances for the Blues before joining the Bees on a free transfer back in 2000.

As for the Blues' loanees, Matteo Sereni made his second appearance of the season for Brescia as they surprisingly beat Juventus 2-0 while Ulrich Le Pen was in the Strasbourg side which lost 3-1 at home to Rennes.

Both Leyton Orient and Boston are out of the FA Cup so neither Justin Miller nor Richard Logan were in action for their respective loan clubs this weekend.

Miller's third month of his spell with the East London side is up on Saturday with Orient keen to sign him on a longer term loan or permanently. The South African's contract with Town is up at the end of the season.
