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

 

 

 

FINLEY BARBROOK

The midfielder returned to action for Chelmsford City as they secured their highest ever National League South finish with a 1-1 draw on the final day of the regular season.

Barbrook recovered from his minor injury and played the full 90 minutes for Robbie Simpson's side.

The Clarets finished second in the table with a record club total of 84 points, which means they will have a home playoff semi-final against Braintree Town or Bath City next weekend.

ELKAN BAGGOTT

The defender played the full 90 minutes for Bristol Rovers as they closed out their home 2023/24 campaign with a 2-0 defeat to League One promotion-chasing Peterborough United.

Matt Taylor's side dropped down to 15th in the table and play their final game of the season when they travel to Wigan Athletic next weekend. 

GASSAN AHADME

The forward featured for Cambridge United as they were beaten 1-0 at home by Derby County, who moved one step closer to promotion to the Championship.

Garry Monk's side remain 19th in the third tier, five points above the relegation zone and will be safe if they win either of their two remaining games, or if Cheltenham fail to win both of theirs.

The U's return to action when they host Wycombe Wanderers on Tuesday night.

PANUTCHE CAMARA AND FREDDIE LADAPO

The duo weren't involved for Charlton Athletic as they drew 1-1 with Shrewsbury Town to extend their unbeaten run to 14 games in League One.  

Addicks manager Nathan Jones didn't name a single loan player in his matchday squad and was asked if the absence of loanees was due to them not being factored into longer-term plans.

He said: “It’s a bit of a coincidence and a bit of that. We’ve had loan players in here – I don’t like taking loans because if we believe in the work we do, I don’t want to develop other players for them.

“We want to develop our own players. We have got good enough young players here and players here that we can develop our own assets – that’s what I like doing."

The Addicks play their final game of the season when they travel to Wycombe Wanderers next weekend. 

NICK HAYES

The keeper played the full 90 minutes and kept a clean-sheet for Solihull Moors as they beat York City 1-0 at home in the National League. 

Andy Whing's side end their regular season in fifth place with 76 points, meaning the Moors have a home tie in the play-offs as they host Gateshead on Tuesday.

 

 

RYAN CARR

The midfielder featured for Aveley as they beat fellow promotion chasers Bath City 2-0 at home in the National League South. 

Danny Scopes' side secured the final play-off spot with this victory, finishing the regular season with 73 points.

The Millers will travel to Maidstone United in the play-offs on Wednesday. 

JACK MANLY AND ASH BOATSWAIN

The duo featured for Leiston as they drew 1-1 with play-off chasing Leamington in their last home game of the 2023/2024 season in Southern League Premier Central. 

Former Town academy graduate Albie Armin opened the scoring for Darren Eadie and Chris Wigger's side, who remain 12th in the table. 

The Blues finish their season with a trip to bottom of the table Long Eaton United next weekend.

SETH O'NEILL

The Ambers travel to Horsham on Tuesday night as they look to stay in the division.
