‘Amazing achievement’: McKenna full of pride as Ipswich savour promotion
Manager says leap to top flight has created ‘so much joy’‘It’s an incredible turnout … everyone deserves it’
Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna hailed his side’s “amazing achievement” as they celebrated promotion with a bus parade around the town. Premier League football awaits the club for the first time in 22 years after confirming promotion with a 2-0 win over Huddersfield thanks to goals from Wes Burns and Omari Hutchinson.
The Tractor Boys completed stunning back-to-back promotions on Saturday as they became the first team since Southampton in 2011 and 2012 to win successive promotions to the top-flight from League One.
