Judge’s Verdict Goes Against Ipswich

Alan Judge has decided his future lays back at Blackburn where he started his career.

The 24-year-old, who plays for former Town star Chris Kiwomya’s Notts County, has been courted by the Blues, Derby and Charlton but his relationship with Blackburn caretaker-manager Gary Bowyer who he played under as a youth teamer.

Judge has been widely linked with Town for a long time but it appears Mick McCarthy has already made alternative arrangements and is close to landing Blackpool’s Kirk Broadfoot.
