Town are reported to have completed the signing of Derby County keeper Stephen Bywater on loan until the end of the season. Bywater comes in as a replacement for Neil Alexander, who joined Rangers yesterday.

Town have again been linked with Stockport County keeper Owain Fôn Williams, who is also said to be interesting Leeds, Sunderland, Burnley and Sheffield United. Leeds are said to be winning the race for the 22-year-old’s signature.

Colchester United boss Aidy Boothroyd has confirmed that Kevin Lisbie will be staying on loan with his club until the end of the season, unless the Blues find a buyer for the 31-year-old. Town boss Roy Keane had previously indicated that he would be recalling Lisbie once the transfer window opened.

Town frontman Tamás Priskin has told the Hungarian press that he has no plans to leave the Blues during the transfer window.

A Jon Walters goal after 13 minutes was enough to give the Blues a 1-0 win at Derbys Pride Park and completed Towns first double of the season. Late on, the home side were reduced to 10 men when Jordan Stewart was red-carded for a high challenge on David Norris.

First half goals from DJ Campbell – who had missed an earlier penalty – and Daryl Murphy saw the Blues to a 2-1 Boxing Day victory at Charlton. Former Blue Danny Haynes hit back from the spot for the Addicks after the break but despite being under the cosh for much of the second period Town hung on for the three points.

Town have been linked with a move for Derby County frontman Rob Hulse. Wolves, Newcastle and Middlesbrough are also said to be chasing the £2.5 million-rated striker but the Blues are said to be the frontrunners for his signature.

Town manager Paul Jewell could be one of a number of Championship bosses tempted by the loan availability of QPR striker Rob Hulse, according to reports in London. The Premier League club are said to have circulated the 32-year-old’s name along with those of several other fringe players ahead of Thursday’s 5pm deadline.
