Kieran McKenna: Calms situation down after Hull City draw with powerful message, ‘what a manager’
After tonight’s thrilling 3-3 draw with Hull City, Town manager Kieran McKenna contemplated the fantastic situation his team finds itself in.
The Blues need four points from their remaining two games to confirm their Premier League return
for the first time in 22 years. “It was an emotional game, I thought it was a wonderful game between
two good teams,” McKenna said. “I thought there were so, so many positives in our performance.
I saw so many of the things that I love about the team, that I love about the club and the way we’re
going about our business.”
Town boss Kieran McKenna reflected on the wonderful position his side is in following tonight’s 3-3 draw at Hull City.
It’s exciting to be engaged in the season’s business finale, which has a lot riding on it.
“Really pleased with the performance. Naturally, we believe that we could have won the game.
However, it’s a point away from home against a strong squad led by a capable coach and loaded
with talented players, who were giving it their all to try to salvage their season as well.
“I think there are a lot of good things to take away from the night—getting a point away from
home and remaining unbeaten in this final little stretch.”
When asked if he thought the game was a wasted opportunity or a step closer for his team,
McKenna replied, “I think we’ll always take the positive perspective from it.” We are aware of the significance of that, bringing us to 90 points. It’s an amazing accomplishment to score 90 points in
two separate divisions in a season twice in a row; I don’t think anyone has ever done that in
the EFL. Naturally, after the last two games, we know what we need, and hopefully tonight will
turn out to be a really, really important game.
“We are aware that, no matter what happens at this point, we will return to Portman Road on
Saturday morning with a chance to earn automatic promotion to the Premier League.
What a lovely thing to be a part of.
“We’ll accept that, but above all, we’ll heal and get ready to try to give a performance on Tuesday.”
