Former Republic of Ireland internationals Sean St Ledger and Noel Hunt have joined Mick McCarthy's Ipswich Town.
St Ledger (29) has signed as short-term defensive cover until the end of January while Hunt has been loaned from Championship rivals Leeds United, where he has struggled for game time this season.
St Ledger recently told RTÉ Sport of his frustration at being unable to find a club after being released from Leicester City in the summer.
Striker Hunt (31) joins his older brother and fellow international Stephen at former Ireland boss McCarthy's Tractor Boys, who are currently fourth in the table, four points behind leaders Derby.
