George Burley has promised Ipswich Town fans goals galore this season as their side bid for promotion from Division One.

The Blues boss is determined to bring success back to Portman Road by playing attacking, positive football worthy of the Premiership.

He and his troops get their first chance to put that philosophy into practice tomorrow when Ipswich kick-off their season at Walsall.

Burley told the Evening Gazette: "Our aim this season is not so much to worry about the opposition but make sure we get our own game right.

"That means lots of endeavour and plenty of excitement, because we know we need to score a lot of goals to get out of this division.

"Most of the games are going to be tight so it's down to us to cause problems and make sure we get things right in the striking department."

Burley will be without the injured Mark Venus, Finidi George, Wayne Brown, Keith Branagan and Ulrich Le Pen for tomorrow's clash, which kicks-off at 5.35pm and is being screened live by Sky TV.
