Jewell and McCarthy at Southend - Ipswich Town News
Town boss Paul Jewell and coach Sean McCarthy were at Roots Hall last night to watch Southend thrash their old side Bradford City 4-0. It’s not the first time members of the Blues’ staff have been spotted watching the Shrimpers, reserves coach Chris Kiwomya have watched their victory over Wycombe Wanderers in February.
On that occasion 18-year-old Kane Ferdinand, cousin of Rio and Anton, was said to be the reason for the visit and the Irish U19 international midfielder or defender, who recently signed a two-and-a-half-year pro deal at Roots Hall, scored one of last night’s goals. Ryan Hall netted twice and Barry Corr a penalty.
