...ipswich town can stay up if the supporters have confidence in the team. this will affect the players by giving them confidence and make the player want to stay up in the premier league. also if the supporters are loud and keep a big atmosphere in the stadium and through out the match even when they are losing, then that will give the players a massive boost. i do not considor ipswiches squad to be small. when people think of lower league teams they dont really look at their players properly. if its not a known player that the average premier league team supporter knows then surly they are not good enough. for instance David Johnson who has heard of him befor ipswitch come in to the premier league man u fans may of because they are the ones that raised him at their acadamy. another example is man city they have bought players that have...

Advantages: Enjoyable, Attacking Footbal
Disadvantages: Lack of Confidence

...Ipswich Town's Premiership drive has finally paid off. But will they stay up? Definitely!! All the doubters and doom-mongers who predict instant relegation are misguided. Look at other Premiership survivors especially Sunderland. Led by a manager infamous for his reluctance to spend, they have thrived in the Premiership with their Div 1 side. Whereas local rivals Newcastle, with their "Geordie Messiah" Shearer, have struggled despite excesive transfer market activity. In short money does not guarantee Premiership success or failure. Ipswich must rely on playing their natural game of flowing, attacking football and not be intimidated by the Premiership's big names. The Team and supporters' determination cannot be doubted after they previous playoff nighmares. This coupled with the club's commitment towards George Burley must... Read review

Advantages: GOOD TEAM SPIRIT
Disadvantages: SMALL CLUB

...Who would have thought that Ipswich Town Football Club would have ever reached the dizzy height of THIRD POSITION in the Premiership!!! Whilst I appreciate that it is still early in the season,this is still quite an achievement. George Burley seems to be a prodigee of Sir Bobby Robson,one of the greatest football managers of modern times who gave George a tremendous example to build upon. The objective,this season,is to stay in the Premiership and,if this is achieved,I am confident that the club will be a force to be reckoned with at this level. Drawing with Manchester United--Winning at Leeds,this could not have realistically been predicted. The title of "TRACTOR BOYS" is a somewhat unpopular one but I AM SURE WE WILL PLOUGH THROUGH THE OPPOSITION AND SOW THE SEEDS OF SUCCESS AND HARVEST THE FINANCIAL BENEFITS!!!!!!!!!... Read review

Advantages: Very quiet
Disadvantages: Only caters for the garage people

...I have been in Ipswich for just over two weeks. My partner was offered a position at one of the towns biggest employers and so we moved from way up north in from the wild Yorkshire Moors to sunny Ipswich. Being an hour away by train from the bright lights of London I imagined that Ipswich maybe quite a hip and upcoming area, deep down I knew we would end up in a little old town where the 'next big thing' to happen was the once a month church disco. To be fair Ipswich does cater for the youth of Ipswich well at least some of it. The Opium Lounge and Buddah Bar are situated on Orwell street in the centre of town and cater for the garage and drum and bass listeners. However I would reccomend anyone to go in just to look at the decor. The Buddah Bar situated beneath the Opium Lounge is seperated into six little booths draped... Read review

Advantages: In Anglia
Disadvantages: Ticket Prices

...Firstly congratulations to Ipswich Town for working very hard and getting back into the English Premiership. It is great to have a team in East Anglia that are in the Premiership. Hopefully they will do well and not like they did last time in the Premiership and lose 8 or 9 (I forget!) to 0 against Manchester United. No doubt they’ll increase their ticket prices by 100% but then again it is worth it to see some Premiership action in my area! Best of luck to them in the future! ! !... Read review

Advantages: Great to see 'small' teams doing really well with few foreign players
Disadvantages: none

...Ipswich 2-0 Leicester The first half was dominated by the defences of either team and neither managed, or made enough attacking efforts, to break through. There were only 2 shots on target from either team - 1 from each - and neither really threatened a goal. At half-time Andy Gray suggested that Ipswich should really have a go and put Leicester under pressure, because he could see Ipswich the more likely team to score. Ipswich wasted no time in the second half and, ironically, as Ipswich were creating chances for themselves now, it was one of Leicester's most reliable players of the season, Gary Rowett, who conceeded posession on the Leicester city goal-line and the ball was played back and struck by Alun Armstrong. The shot was flying well wide when Marcus Stewart, my premiership player of the season so far, managed to get his... Read review

Advantages: NONE
Disadvantages: NONE

...Everyone was suprised when Ipswich were going to be returing to the Premiership, everyone had them as their favourites to go straight back down.....but they proved us wrong. George Burley has completley turned the team around, when he signed Marcus Stewart at the end of the season everybody said "oh he won't do anything in the premiership" but he has even pushed himself for an England call-up after scoring 18 goals in all competitions. The defence which consists of Bramble, Venus, Clapham and Wright have done ever so well being so young. Richard Wright has played outstanding this year between the posts and is also pushing for an England call-up. The midfield which is lead by captain Holland has been influential in making goals and tracking back to help defend. The attack which has been phenomanal and a goal scoring machine... Read review

Advantages: Feels safe, reasonable night life, clean, friendly people
Disadvantages: not enough clubs

...I live on the outskirts of Ipswich, in a little countryside village. Ipswich is only about 15 minutes drive away, so I'm always going out there. The shopping has improved recently, don't get me wrong - you won't find loads of amazingly unique shops or anything, but it has most of the shops that other towns have, and two shopping centers (The Buttermarket and Tower Ramparts). The nightlife in Ipswich is adequate. We have 3 main clubs - Fire & Ice, Liquid and Pals. On Monday nights people tend to go to Club Fire (cheap entry and cheap drinks and lots of cheesy music). Thursdays at Liquid are also popular. The pubs are pretty good - if you're a bit of a rocker then you should check out the Black Horse (near to the police station), which is a nice pub (although a little bit expensive). The Golden Lion is often packed at the weekends... Read review

Advantages: some good music
Disadvantages: needs more clubs

...I don't live that far from Ipswich but I feel that from the quiet secluded pubs of a traditional country town to the vibrant nightclubs which appeal to the younger generation.....Ipswich can cater for all I am a student and the nightlife in Ipswich can be good. There are several nightclubs in Ipswich you have Fire and Ice and Liquid these are the most popular ones and are situated near each other. On Mondays and Thursdays at Fire and Ice there is student nights, which means free entry with a leaflet or if you're on the guestlist or before a certain time mostly 9:30pm. The drinks alnight are £1.50 e.g. Jack Daniels and coke would be £1.50. Mondays are Rock night not the best music as it isn't really rock . Liquid also do rock night on Wednesday and R&B Thursdays. Fire and Ice is different to some clubs as they have... Read review
