It has been an outstanding start to life back in the Championship for Ipswich Town.
Pundit Carlton Palmer believes Ipswich Town will maintain their promotion challenge in the Championship this season
The Tractor Boys have enjoyed an outstanding start to life back in the second tier following their promotion from League One last season, and they currently sit second in the table after picking up 25 points from their first 10 league games.
Kieran McKenna’s side are now five points clear of third-placed Preston North End after their 3-0 win over Hull City at Portman Road on Tuesday night, with goals from Wes Burns, Conor Chaplin and Marcus Harness sealing another impressive victory
Ipswich have the chance to extend their lead over North End when they host Ryan Lowe’s men on Saturday.
McKenna praised his side for their start to the season, but he insists his players must remain focused.
“We’ve had 12-18 months in terms of breaking records and stuff like that, but I’ve always said they’re things to look back on in the future,” McKenna told the East Anglian Daily Times.
“Tonight was a good night, I’m not going to shy away from the fact that it’s a night we should enjoy as a group of staff, players, a football club, supporters, everyone together.
But it’s one game. We’ve got Preston on Saturday and playing well tonight doesn’t get us six points from the two games
