McCarthy agrees new three-year deal at Ipswich

Former Ireland boss Mick McCarthy and his assistant Terry Connor have agreed new three-year deals with Championship side Ipswich Town.

The duo took over at Portman Road in November 2012 and led the Suffolk club to ninth last season.

“I’m delighted,” McCarthy said. “I’m looking forward to it and I’m looking forward to the new season, forget the new contract. We’ll be here for another three years, hopefully!
