===Rushden & Diamonds===
====Rushden & Diamonds (loan)====
On 6 November 2009, Ainsley went on loan to [[Rushden & Diamonds F.C.|Rushden & Diamonds]]. He only made one appearance which angered the then Ipswich manager [[Roy Keane]] and the local press. Keane quoted in a press conference: "He certainly won’t be going back there. None of our players will be going there. It’s not the first time that club’s done that to a player. Not at this club, but I’ve spoken to other managers. If a club comes in and we feel he might get a reasonable chance we might send him out again, which is why we send them out on loan. When a player’s really not given an opportunity then you have concerns. But, as I say, I think it’s happened to one or two other players who’ve gone there. There’s a bit of history with their manager [[Justin Edinburgh]] you see. There's a bit of history with everyone.".

Jack Ainsley (born 17 September 1990) is an English footballer who plays as a defender for Felixstowe & Walton United.

Club career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Ipswich, Suffolk,[2] His father George Ainsley and brother Stuart Ainsley also were at Ipswich as youngsters but never broke into the first team. Ainsley first started his career as a striker with an impressive goal ratio at youth level but since his professional contract Ainsley has currently adapted to right back or centre back.

Ipswich Town

[edit]

Ainsley signed a one-year professional contract on 9 June 2009 with Ipswich Town despite interest from a number of Premier League clubs. Ainsley made his debut for Ipswich Town in a 3–3 draw with Shrewsbury Town after extra time in the League Cup, which was won 4–2 in a penalty shootout.[3]

On 30 April 2010 he signed a one-year extension with the club. On 7 August he made his Football League debut replacing Mark Kennedy in the 89th minute in a 3–1 win over Middlesbrough. In April 2011 he was awarded an initial six-month contract extension by the club.[4]

Ainsley made his first league start for Ipswich, playing as a centre back in their 7–1 away defeat to Peterborough on Saturday 21 August 2011. On 20 December 2011 Jack Ainsley signed a new contract keeping him at Portman Road until June 2013.

Rushden & Diamonds (loan)

[edit]

On 6 November 2009, Ainsley went on loan to Rushden & Diamonds. He only made one appearance which angered the then Ipswich manager Roy Keane and the local press. Keane quoted in a press conference: "He certainly won't be going back there. None of our players will be going there. It's not the first time that club's done that to a player. Not at this club, but I've spoken to other managers. If a club comes in and we feel he might get a reasonable chance we might send him out again, which is why we send them out on loan. When a player's really not given an opportunity then you have concerns. But, as I say, I think it's happened to one or two other players who've gone there. There's a bit of history with their manager Justin Edinburgh you see. There's a bit of history with everyone.".

Histon (loan)

[edit]

On 19 November 2010, Ainsey went on loan to Histon, struggling at the foot of the Conference National, on a one-month deal. He went straight into their squad for the match at Luton Town on 20 November 2010, but could not prevent the side from losing 5–1; Histon were relegated, having finished bottom of the table, at the end of the season.[5]

Chelmsford City (loan)

[edit]

On 26 February 2013, Ainsley joined Conference South side Chelmsford City on a month's loan.[6] On 27 March the loan was extended until the end of the season.[7]

Lowestoft Town

[edit]

In July 2013, Ainsley signed a two-year contract to play with Isthmian League Premier Division side Lowestoft Town.[8] This will see him line up alongside his brother Stuart, who was already at the club.[9]

Leiston

[edit]
