Millwall manager Kenny Jackett says Town’s valuation of Lions midfielder James Henry was so low that it caused his chairman to laugh. On Tuesday, Blues boss Paul Jewell revealed that Town had had the second of two offers for the 22-year-old turned down.

Jackett, who feels that selling any of his first teamers would destabilise his squad, told Southwark News: "Ipswich's valuation was very, very low. My chairman was laughing when he heard it."

Millwall are understood to rate the former Reading man in the £2.5 million bracket, while the Blues are likely to have offered at most somewhere around £1 million below that figure.

Having had the second bid turned down, Jewell said the Blues are unlikely to make another offer: ”They’ve told us he’s not for sale. That’s probably dead that one, so we’re looking elsewhere.”

DiamondGezzer added 06:58 - Jul 22 Sorry to detract back to earlier posts, but last night I was talking to an ex Ipswich scout about the Cambridge game. His view was, that literally nothing should be read into the result as the opposition would have been really up for it and kicking lumps out of our boys for the bragging rights down the pub. I seem to recollect it did get a little fiesty at times. His oppinion.
