McGoldrick: We Owe Fans a Derby Win - Ipswich Town News

Striker David McGoldrick believes the players owe Town fans a derby victory, the Blues’ last win against their greatest rivals Norwich City having come back in April 2009 when Jim Magilton's side beat the League One-bound Canaries 3-2 at Portman Road.

"Since I have been here we have never beaten Norwich so hopefully we can end that,” McGoldrick said in an interview for Sunday’s match programme, which will also cover his future with Town and the Republic of Ireland.

"We have a good squad and perhaps they are not as strong as they have been in the past, although we know they are a good side. We’ll give it right go. I think we owe the fans a victory.

"It’s a great game for the supporters. Derbies always are. The passion, the intensity, it’s all there. I’m looking forward to it.”
