Friars, currently on loan at Portadown, beat three men before squaring to Maurice Harkin who hit home in the game against Malta in Corradino. The 20 year-old has been told he will be offered another one year deal at Town, but many Town fans must still wonder why a player who has been well regarded by successive Northern Ireland managers has still only made one appearence for Town. That was as sub in the victory over Crewe at Portman Road in November. | Keegan Speaks Out on Wright Tue 28th Mar 2000 13:37 England manager Kevin Keegan has told Richard Wright that he must be playing Premiership football next season if he is to take his England career any further. Keegan was speaking prior to the England U21s play-off with Yugoslavia tomorrow in Barcelona (KO 6pm) which Wright is likely to start. If Town fail to win promotion Wright is now almost guaranteed to leave Portman Road in the close season with his price-tag the only question left to be answered. Over the years virtually all the top clubs have been rumoured to have an interest in Wright, who made his debut back in Town's days in the Premiership. Town have also been linked with keepers this season, most notably Shay Given, others mantioned include Barnet's Lee Harrison. Wright, who hopes to be part of the full squad for the European Championships in the summer, will have one year left on his current Town contract at the end of this season and Town will want to cash-in prior to his being available on a possible Bosman at the end of the 2001/2 season. |
