McCarthy: No Suggestion of Not Seeing Season Out - Ipswich Town News

Town boss Mick McCarthy says he has no intention of leaving the club before the end of the season.

Speaking to BBC Radio Suffolk after last night’s 3-0 defeat to Hull City which took place in a fractious Portman Road atmosphere, he said: "I have no intention of doing anything other than seeing the season out.”

Asked again if he might move on before the end of the campaign, he added: "Not at all with nine games to play. I'm going to Bristol City on Saturday fired up as ever. There's no suggestion of that for me now."

McCarthy, who has been in charge of the Blues since November 2012, is out of contract in the summer but with owner Marcus Evans having an option to extend his terms for a further two seasons.

The Town boss is among a number of members of staff and players at the club's golf day at Ufford Park today.
