Alun Loan Extended? - Ipswich Town News
Bradford boss Bryan Robson says he is keen to extend Alun Armstrong's loan spell with the West Yorkshire club. Armstrong scored the winner on Saturday as the Bantams defeated Norwich City 1-0.
Robson said after the game: "I thought Alun led the line very well not just with his goal but also with his build up play.
"He brought Ben Muirhead and Danny Cadamarteri into the game well after the break. I'd like to keep him for longer than a month but that's up to Ipswich and my board."
Armstrong joined Bradford at the turn of the year and has so far made three appearances and scored one goal. The Bantams are meeting part of his wages while he is at Valley Parade.
