Calderwood: “I have to say yes (I will be talking to Town) because there are lots of pluses (about becoming our next manger), but I know very little about it at the minute.

“There would have to be a bit of investigation and it would depend on what other people say about it and what information they could give me.

“I know very little about Ipswich Town and their season because my concentration has been elsewhere.

“They are a Championship club and anyone playing at that level gives you a chance of getting in the Premiership.

“That is an obvious attraction but at the minute I don't see it as a fast road out of Northampton. That's not what I'm looking for.

“There's still a lot to be achieved with Northampton I feel. It's important to feel you've got a chance of being successful wherever you are. That's the reason the phone has rung, because we've had a bit of success.

“There are all sorts of considerations when you go and talk to other clubs, but I think we've got a chance of getting into the next league.

“I want to have another end of season like the one we've just had and at the minute all thoughts are really about doing that with Northampton.”
