Town boss Mick McCarthy was delighted with his side's 2-1 win against Burnley at Portman Road thanks to goals from DJ Campbell and Daryl Murphy.

Speaking to the Official Club Website in relation to the win, McCarthy said: “It wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t sexy football. It was dogged and determined but that’s what we have to do.

"It wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t sexy football. It was dogged and determined but that’s what we have to do,” the Town boss told Ipswich Player. 

“If we are safe with six games to go, perhaps we will ping it around the pitch then but this league is all about scrapping it out. 

“I was pleased that when they scored, we didn’t look like conceding another and that’s not been the case much this season. We went and got a terrific winner as well. 

“We had two or three good opportunities in the second-half but we didn’t make them count but they kept at it. I’m pleased for the players. 

“The fans were terrific as well. They have not had much to cheer at home lately so I’m delighted for them that we’ve got the three points.”

Next up for Town is the trip to Leicester City on Saturday the 17th where Town will be hoping to build on their success at Portman Road.
