Liam Manning: Plenty of fond Ipswich Town memories but Dons win would be another
Liam Manning has plenty of fond memories at Ipswich Town, and he hopes to add winning there with MK Dons tomorrow.
Dons’ head coach Liam Manning is plenty familiar with Ipswich Town. The 35-year-old came through the academy at Portman Road, turned pro there and returned to spend nearly a decade on their coaching staff.
Today though, he heads back to familiar territory with MK Dons looking to get one over on the hand which once fed him.
