Jim: We Can Go All The Way

Ipswich Town midfielder Jim Magilton can not see a reason why Town shouldn’t be able to defy the critics and go up this season.

Town are guaranteed a top three finish after George Burley’s Derby County lost against Leicester City earlier in the week and Jim feels there is no reason why Town cant go up.

Jim: “People have been writing us off or under-estimating us all season. Your prediction for us finishing eighth, even my own prediction that top six would be a fantastic season. Now we have got there, and having been there for so long, I see no reason why we can't carry on and go all the way.

“Looking at the squad in the summer we were a bit bare, even though the Gaffer had made great signings in Jason De Vos and Kevin Horlock.

“They were experienced players who blended in very well with the whole squad. Even so, anyone looking at us would have thought top six would be a fabulous season for us. But now we have been top three for so long and top for a good period, it would be tragic not to finish it off.”
