McCarthy in France - Ipswich Town News
Town boss Mick McCarthy was spotted travelling to France on Sunday morning.
If the Blues manager was making a scouting trip, there were only a few games taking place in France yesterday, just three in Ligue 1.
In the afternoon, Strasbourg defeated Troyes 2-1 and Nantes and Lille drew 2-2, while his former club Lyon were beaten 2-0 at home by Rennes in the evening.
While McCarthy and MD Ian Milne have both said in the last few days that no decision has been made on whether the 59-year-old will remain at Portman Road after the end of this season, the Town manager has said he is working as if he will still be in charge beyond the summer.
"I will continue doing that until the season finishes or whenever my future is determined,” he said speaking just over a week ago.
