IPSWICH Town manager Kieran McKenna was in buoyant mood following his team’s promotion to the Premier League and pledged to “work really hard over the summer” in time for the new season.
The dominant victory over Huddersfield secured their elevation following a 22-year absence as they beat a forlorn Terriers outfit thanks to goals from Wes Burns and Omari Hutchinson.
It heralded back-to-back promotions for the Tractor Boys and confirmed the visitors’ relegation to League One.
Town boss McKenna has overseen a remarkable turnaround in the club’s fortunes and promotion this season saw them become the first team since Southampton in 2011 and 2012 to win successive promotions to the Premier League from League One.
McKenna said: “To get here so far so quickly, a lot of hard work, everyone together, it’s amazing what you can do.
“They’re incredible (the players). I’ll speak to them over the next few days, they have been an absolute privilege to work with, my first managerial job. I’ve been fortunate with the group of players, group of people that I’ve come across.
