Town host Burton Albion on Saturday in the first of two games in four days at Portman Road against teams from League One s lower reaches but with manager Kieran McKenna focusing only on the Brewers’ visit.
General manager of football operations Lee O’Neill believes taking caretaker charge of the Blues is a good opportunity for first-team coach Matt Gill to add to his experience and could perhaps even put him in with a shout of the role permanently, but if not he and goalkeeper-coach Jimmy Walker will remain at the club under the next boss.
TWTD understands first-team coach Matt Gill and academy head of coaching and player development Bryan Klug will take caretaker charge of the Blues following Paul Lambert and Stuart Taylor’s departure last night.
Boss Paul Lambert’s pre-match press conference ahead of Saturday’s crucial home game against Reading will be shown live on TWTV from 1pm this afternoon.
