Keeper Henly Set to Move On
Monday, 9th May 2016 12:12
TWTD understands that keeper Jon Henly will be leaving the Blues this summer.
The 21-year-old joined Town after a trial in August, signing a one-year deal with an option for a further season, having been released by Reading at the end of the previous campaign.
Capped once at U21 level by Scotland prior to his time at Portman Road, Woking-born Henly was on the bench for the first team games against Reading, QPR and Bristol City in February but without making a senior debut.
Town have already confirmed that midfielders Jay Tabb and Larsen Touré and striker Luke Varney can move on with their contracts up this summer, while defenders Piotr Malarczyk and Josh Yorwerth and winger Cameron Stewart have been told they can find new clubs despite having a year left on their deals.
Ten-Man U21s Lose at Colchester
Monday, 15th Feb 2016 17:09 by James Ager
Femi Akinwande netted an 87th minute penalty as Town’s U21s were beaten 1-0 at Colchester United this afternoon, skipper Joe Robinson (pictured) having been shown a straight red card in the incident which led to the spot-kick.
Mark Kennedy named an unusually experienced team with Paul Digby partnering Robinson at centre-back, Jay Tabb and Larsen Touré featuring in midfield, and Luke Varney starting up front.
The former Blackburn striker came close to opening the scoring early on when Shane McLoughlin played him through, but Varney s left-foot shot across Dillon Barnes struck the far post before the ball was cleared to safety.
Varney, Touré, Tabb and Digby in U21s at Colchester

Luke Varney, Larsen Touré, Jay Tabb and Paul Digby will be involved with the U21s when they take on Colchester United at their Florence Park training ground this afternoon (KO 1pm).
Having lost nine on the trot, the U21s beat QPR 1-0 at home and then drew 1-1 at Brentford last week and will be looking to continue their improved form.
Those results have lifted Mark Kennedy’s side off the bottom of the Professional Development League Two South table.
U21s: Henly, Emmanuel, Digby, Robinson, Kenlock, Tabb, McDonnell, McLoughlin, Touré, Varney, McKendry. Subs: Marsden, C Smith, Hammond, Guldbrandsen, Blanchfield.
McGoldrick Joins Bishop on Sidelines But Skuse Fit to Face Rams
Friday, 18th Dec 2015 14:13
Town striker David McGoldrick is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering what manager Mick McCarthy says is a “nasty tear” to his hamstring, while Teddy Bishop continues to be frustrated by his hamstring problems, but better news is that Cole Skuse will be OK to face Derby tomorrow despite breaking his nose at Fulham in midweek.
“He’s got quite a nasty tear in his hamstring so he’ll be out for a while,” McCarthy revealed regarding McGoldrick, who picked up the injury in training ahead of Tuesday’s 2-1 win at Craven Cottage.
