ROY Keane is taking his Ipswich Town side back to his old home town for a friendly against Cork City.

The game will be played on Sunday July 19, in between games at Brentford and Southend.

Keane took Sunderland to the Republic of Ireland during the two summers he was manager there, while Town went to Jim Magilton's home city of Belfast for their last pre-season.
