Ipswich handed Uefa place for fair play

Bryan Hamilton admitted it was "terrific news" that Ipswich have won a Uefa Cup place next season - but insisted the priority was still an instant return to the Premiership.

Town were one of two names drawn out of a hat containing the 17 national associations ranked highest in Uefa's Fair Play League.

They had only the fourth-best disciplinary record in the top flight but the three teams above them - Manchester United, Liverpool and Newcastle - had already qualified for Europe through their position in the Premiership.
