Mick McCarthy: 'Draw wasn't a fair result'

Ipswich Town manager Mick McCarthy insists that a draw with Bournemouth in the Championship was not "fair" on his side.

Mick McCarthy has insisted that a draw "wasn't a fair result" in the Championship match between Ipswich Town and Bournemouth earlier today.

The Tractor Boys led for much of the match after scoring early on, but Kenwyne Jones marked his debut for the Cherries with a late equaliser to secure a 1-1 draw.

The Ipswich manager told Sky Sports News: "I can't honestly say it wasn't a fair result, they had a lot of the game. That said, of course I am disappointed to concede like that.

"They put on a very expensive acquisition [in Jones] and maybe he has started to pay some of that back with that goal.

"There is an irony that we are meant to be a direct, long ball team and they put someone on and launch it to him to score."

The result leaves Ipswich seventh in the table, outside the playoff places on goal difference.
