Town boss Mick McCarthy has been named the manager of the EFL’s Team of Easter after the Blues picked up six points out of six over the holiday weekend.
Friday’s 2-1 win at Burton Albion was followed by Monday’s 3-1 vanquishing of promotion-pushing Newcastle United, Town’s first back-to-back victories of the season.
The results have seen the Blues up to 15th and to safety. With three games remaining they have 55 points, 11 above the relegation zone.
Town are next in action at Rotherham on Saturday, before Sheffield Wednesday visit for Portman Road’s final game of the season the following weekend and then the season ends at Nottingham Forest on Sunday 7th May (KO midday).
