Scunthorpe United goalkeeper Joe Murphy has pledged his future to the club, even if they are relegated from the Championship.

The 26-year-old Irishman joined the Iron in the summer of 2006 from Sunderland and has made nearly 100 appearances for Nigel Adkins' side to date.

Murphy told the Evening Telegraph: "I have got another year left on my contract. I am happy, I am playing football and I came here to play football, not to move on.

"I have got nearly two seasons under my belt here and I am enjoying the football.

"I am not enjoying getting beat or anything like that. I don't want to get relegated, but as long as I am playing, I am happy."
