Murphy hopeful of winning new Tractor Boys contract

FORMER Bohemians keeper Brian Murphy is hoping he can win a new Ipswich Town contract in the remaining weeks of the season.

The 27-year-old has had little opportunity to show new Tractor Boys boss Paul Jewell what he can do having been out of action since December with a broken ankle sustained in training.

The Waterford man got back into action with Ipswich’s reserves last week, but it’s been a difficult few months for him, the injury coming only a few weeks before Paul Jewell took over the Portman Road hot-seat from Roy Keane.
