Goddard Back With Town - Ipswich Town News
Former Town striker, academy coach and caretaker manager Paul Goddard is back working with the club. Goddard, who left his position as first team coach at West Ham earlier in the season, is doing some part-time scouting with the Blues.
Chief scout Colin Suggett says he expects the ex-England striker to find a full-time job sooner rather than later: "Paul is scouting for for us on a part-time basis. He is a smashing lad and is looking at players.
"He naturally wants to keep his hand in and I am sure he will get a full-time post in the game again before too long."
