I remember a very fruitless soggy afternoon at Gay Meadow or was that something else..............

Remember going there in some cup game Jim, when they had a future England goalie playing for them. Monty put one pass over the stand and into the river flowing alongside. We eventually won on penalties in what seemed one of the longest most tedious games I can remember watching.

My one and only visit was in the 80s and we lost 1-0 so it looks like '87, vaguely remember parking in a large Supermarket cart park not far away from the ground. January as well so might explain the shitty weather.

We had a 19 game winless run at Portman Road in league, Cup and playoffs between 1975 and 2010.

We also didn't beat them in the league home or away between 1993 and 2005 - a run of 18 games without a win. We did of course beat them in the FA Cup twice and knocked them out of the playoffs during that period.

We had a good league record at Portman Road against Ipswich under Bobby Robson. Drew 0-0 (1971-72), 1-1 (1972-73), won 1-0 (1973-74), won 1-0 (1974-75) and 1-1 in 1975-76. Apart from 1975-76, Woodward scored all our goals
