 Wednesday, 2nd May 2012 06:00 Boss Paul Jewell says there will be plenty of Championship clubs looking to push on and make a more serious promotion challenge next season. Town are just one of a number of sides with Premier League aspirations who have failed to make a significant impact during this campaign. Jewell said: “This league is full of teams who have got [it in them to push on next season]. “You look at teams that are outside the top six just now, Leicester, ourselves, there are some big teams. Coventry were a Premier League team not so long ago. “We’re all in the same boat and everyone is probably trying to chase the same players. Now that we’ve had a full season at it, I’m not going to make any false promises, all the promises I’ll make are that I want to get to the Premier League and I feel that Ipswich is a club which can get there. When we’re going to get there is a moot point.” He admits that this season’s 15th place finish was well below par, although it could have been much worse given the run of seven successive defeats before Christmas: “I think we all hoped to mount a promotion challenge, but if you’d have been at some of our games in November or December you’d have thought we’d have had a good season [to finish in mid-table]. “At the end of the day we’re disappointed but we are where we are. I’ve had a year at the club now, a full season. Last season was difficult because we came in in January, but now we’ve had a full season and we’ve got to improve.”
