Joe: Darren Will Stay - Ipswich Town News
Town boss Joe Royle says the club are yet to receive a second bid from Charlton for striker Darren Bent and the 20-year-old is likely to remain with the Blues.
Royle says he doesn't expect to lose the England U21 international before Tuesday's deadline: "We received an offer from Charlton, which we turned down.
"We have heard nothing since and my gut feeling is that Darren will stay."
Royle has named an unchanged side for today's home game against Wolves.
