Shrewsbury Town 0-0 Ipswich Town - Match Report
Tuesday, 4th May 2021 21:03
Town’s final away game of the season at Shrewsbury ended in their ninth 0-0 draw of the season. Clear-cut chances were rare at both ends with Troy Parrott forcing home keeper Harry Burgoyne into a couple of saves and the Irishman and Norwood both shot over for the Blues, while sub Dan Udoh looped a header onto the top of the Town cross-bar at the other.
Parrott replaced Teddy Bishop, who dropped to the bench, in a side otherwise unchanged from Saturday’s 2-1 win at Swindon.
Dai Cornell was again in goal with Kane Vincent-Young at right-back and Myles Kenlock at left-back with Stephen Ward again missing out.
Why did you choose construction as a career?
I am creative with an active, problem-solving mind, so becoming an architect was a natural fit for me. I have always been aware that construction is a male-dominated industry, but I grew up in rural Ireland with five brothers – they taught me how to handle myself.
What are you most proud of in your career to date?
Probably working on Paradise Birmingham with Argent. I have been so fortunate to have been working on this masterplan since my first few weeks at Glenn Howells Architects, back in 2010.
Phase one completed last year and the huge transfer trusses have just been installed for One Centenary Way (the first building of phase two). It has already transformed this edge of the city and it is so rewarding to walk through and hear passers-by commenting on how fantastic the place has become.
