Ipswich fan Andy Cumbers, 47, recently got a tattoo of BBC Radio Suffolk’s commentary of Jeremy Sarmiento’s winning goal against Southampton on Easter Monday.
On Kieran McKenna’s new contract, he said: “First and foremost I am relieved and delighted. I was always thought he would stay but the more the rumours on social media went on, the more I thought he could go. It would have been devastating after what we’ve achieved.”
Mr Cumbers believed the signing gave the club “security” and they had a good chance of staying up in the league.
“I think with [McKenna] working with Mark Ashton we’re going to be a dark horse for next season, a surprise package,” he added. “We need to continue with the momentum going forward. We go again next season – come on you Blues!”
Audrey Cobb, 79, became an Ipswich Town social media sensation after sending her glasses flying when punching the air in celebration during promotion celebrations earlier this month.
“I was in the car [when I heard the McKenna news] and I shot my arms up in the air,” she said. “I’m so, so, so pleased. Those other teams can get their own managers, they’re not going to have ours, we need him here.
“He’s staying in the right place, with the right people. I think given time Kieran will get the team to the top of the Premier division, I really think that.”
