From Doncaster to Hereford

Guy Ipoua was with Doncaster last season although he didn't see that much action with the club. In fact he spent two spells on loan.

Firstly he went to Mansfield last October:

Mansfield boss Keith Curle feels loan signing Guy Ipoua was his secret weapon in the Stags' win over Notts County.(could be again tomorrow?-ed)

Curle has recruited Ipoua for a month from Doncaster and handed the former Gillingham and Scunthorpe forward his debut in Saturday's 3-1 victory.

"I'd like to apologise for not making public that we had signed Guy. I wanted to keep the element of surprise," Curle told his club's website.

"It probably threw a large spanner in the workings of County's gameplan."

Secondly to Lincoln City last February:

Lincoln City have signed their 567th striker of the season, with the loan signing of ex-Iron Guy Ipoua on loan from Doncaster.

The 29-year-old Cameroon forward joins the Imps for a month, after failing to make an impact on Doncaster's first-team.

Lincoln boss Keith Alexander said: "Guy has got plenty of experience and knows what is required at this level."

Meanwhile the Pennies from Heaven un-official Doncaster site seem to be glad Ipoua was leaving Belle View. They commented:

Who's stupid enough to sign Guy Ipoua!

Guy Ipoua - Going to Hereford. Oh joy, oh joy, oh joy! Never mind betting odds, I'll pay his train fare and buy him a cup of coffee and a paper for his journey.
