Coach Tony Mowbray says he wants to remain at Town next season. The former Blues' skipper expects to sign the new contract recently offered to him by the club.

Mowbray will take his ProLicence coaching badge in the summer, the highest qualification in the field, which will add to his already impressive coaching CV.

The man known as Mogga says that although he ultimately wants to manage a side of his own, he'll probably be at Portman Road for 2003/04: "I envisage that I'll be working here next season.

"As Joe said, I'm keen to be a manager in my own right and he has said he won't stand in my way should an opportunity come."
