Almost 30K packed into Portman Road for that 1-1 1st leg play off in 2015. Did they get 3K? So that is 27K bouncing ITFC fans Mevans witnessed.

But......, fk all investment for 15/16 season.
It was all there at that time to really kick on, and the owner missed it,
it came that close to a statue of MM next to Sir Bobby Robson that night, that's football i suppose,

for someone so unpopular on here he can still get 3 pages on an Ipswich forum, 8)

i mean it was close considering the position the Town were a couple of seasons before, that was the time to invest in Mick to go one better the following seasons.


seeing today the sad news on Walter Smith RIP,

I always remember him being offered the Wolves job after MM's sacking
he turned the job down.
along with Alan Curbishley, Brian McDermott, and Gus Poyet

tells you something about our owners at the time, good managers wouldn't go near the place after what they did to Merlin, Graham Taylor, Dave Jones etc etc
