Ahead of Ipswich Town's match at Blackburn Rovers tomorrow, the Blues' managing director has defended Mick McCarthy in the wake of criticism of the manager from some supporters.

Ipswich are without a win or a goal in four matches, and have found the net on just four occasions in their last 11 encounters, but Ian Milne says McCarthy is still the right man for the job.

"I don't have any sympathy for those supporters who say Mick should go," Milne said. "Too many clubs have changed their manager too soon, and it hasn't been good for them.

"We finished seventh last year and have never been below ninth under Mick. 

"It's early days yet and we have got a strong team, so please keep the faith."

A new development to help regenerate part of Lowestoft, creating 24 new jobs, will retain part of the town's history, says Waveney District Council.

Permission has been agreed for old council offices on Jubilee Way to be demolished, making way for a Burger King drive-through restaurant.

However planners made it with the proviso that a historic wall on the site, known as the Coopers Building, be retained.

Waveney District Council leader Colin Law said they had always maintained when the council left the building that this part of town would not be neglected. 

He said: "I am also delighted that this development balances the importance of regeneration with the careful consideration we always seek to give to heritage assets. The retention of part of the Coopers Building recognises this and ensures we get the balance just right.”

The original town hall, adjacent to the site, will be retained for civic and community use, and is not a part of this new development.

She adds that the trust is really proud of the turnaround in their secure services, which are for people with a mental illness who require a greater degree of security.
