Burley Commits to Town - Ipswich Town News
George Burley has moved quickly to quash the claims that he is in the running for the Rangers job. The Town boss, a Rangers fan as a child, wants to stay at Town and dig his side out of trouble.
Burley said: "The only thing on my mind at the moment is keeping Ipswich in the Premiership. I am totally concentrated on my job as manager of Ipswich and I can't see that changing. We have a big task ahead of us this season. In football you never know what is going to happen, but I have had no contact with Rangers and I am 100 per cent focused on my job at Portman Road."
