Murray Unused Sub - Ipswich Town News
Blues striker Ronan Murray was an unused sub as the Republic of Ireland’s U21s drew 2-2 with Italy in a Euro 2013 qualifier Sligo last night. Murray has previously won two U21 caps.
One-time Blues reserves keeper Ian McLoughlin started but was subbed in the second half due to injury, while another former Town man, Conor Hourihane, also remained on the bench throughout.
Elsewhere, ex-striker James Scowcroft has been named first team coach of Bury Town. The role allows Scowcroft, who played at Ram Meadow at the end of his career, to continue with his media work next season.
