Ross Halls looks at how Ipswich Town's loan players got on for their clubs last night...

CORRIE NDABA

The Irishman continued his recovery from injury as he played the full 90 minutes for Kilmarnock's development side as they suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Ayr United in their final SPFL Reserve Cup group stage match. 

Ndaba has been out of action with an ankle injury for nearly a month and will look to add more minutes when Killie host Hearts in the league on Saturday.

KYLE EDWARDS

The winger started but played just the first half for Oxford United as they drew 0-0 with top of the table Bolton Wanderers in League One. 

Edwards impressed during the first 45 minutes but was replaced due to him still working his way back from his hamstring injury.

He will hope to make another appearance as the U's host League Two side Grimsby Town in the second round of the FA Cup this weekend.

​GASSAN AHADME 

The forward played the full 90 minutes and was booked for Cambridge United as they were beaten 3-0 at home to Lincoln City in the third tier. 

The U's duly parted company with head coach Mark Bonner after just one win in their last 13 league games.

Bonner, who only signed a new long term contract in September, had been in charge since January 2020. 

Ahadme has made 20 appearances and scored four goals during his loan spell so far.

The U's switch their focus to the FA Cup as they host Fleetwood Town in the second round of the competition on Saturday.

IDRIS EL MIZOUNI 

The Tunisian midfielder captained and played the full 90 minutes for Leyton Orient as they drew 1-1 with Bristol Rovers in League One. 

Former Town midfielder Grant Ward opened the scoring for the Pirates, but a late own goal helped Richie Wellens' side to secure a point at the Memorial Stadium.

ZAK BRADSHAW

The youngster started for Woking as they beat Colliers Wood United 3-2 at home to progress to the third round of the Surrey Senior Cup. 

The Cards are back in league action on Saturday as they host fourth place Gateshead in the National League.

Bradshaw scored on his debut in the reverse fixture against the Tynesiders in August. 

FINLEY BARBROOK

The young midfielder was not involved for Chelmsford City as they won 1-0 at Halstead Town to secure their place in the fourth round of the Essex Senior Cup.

Former Town midfielder Anthony Wordsworth was given a straight red card in the second half.

The Clarets currently sit 10th in the National League South and return to league action on Saturday as they travel to Bath City.

MATT WARD AND HARRY BARBROOK

The duo played the full 90 minutes for Braintree Town as they won 1-0 at Stanway Rovers to progress to the fourth round of the Essex Senior Cup. 

Former Town midfielder Reggie Lambe scored from the spot in the second half to win the game for the Iron. 

They return to league action on Saturday as they host Weymouth, who sit 18th in the National League South. The Essex club sit 7th in the table. 

JACK MANLY AND FINLAY CORRIGAN

Midfielder Manly played the full 90 minutes and opened the scoring for Leiston in their 2-0 win at Alvechurch in the Southern League Premier Division Central. 

Forward Corrigan came on for the final few minutes as the Suffolk club made it back-to-back wins in the league. 

They are currently 16th in the table and host Nuneaton Borough on Saturday, who are fifth. 

BEN HADDOCH

The midfielder played the full 90 minutes for Stowmarket Town as they were thrashed 8-0 at Witham Town in the Isthmian League North Division. 

The Old Gold & Blacks are now bottom of the table after this heavy defeat and are still without a win this season in the league. 

They travel to Basildon United on Saturday, who are sitting third in the table.

David McGoldrick scored his eighth goal of the season for Notts County as they beat Crawley Town 3-1 at Meadow Lane in League Two.
