MICK McCarthy has been charged with driving Ipswich Town up the table and ensuring they avoid relegation - but where will he start?

Will he be able to make any changes before Saturday’s match against Birmingham City? Will Town be able to secure three vital points at St Andrews?

Who will be in McCarthy’s starting line up?

And what about the rest of the season, is there still time for McCarthy to take down to mid table, or higher?

Or will they face a relegation battle come next spring?
