Town have issued a statement following the medical emergency which delayed the start of the second half of this evening’s 0-0 draw with QPR at Portman Road.

A fan underwent treatment in the Sir Alf Ramsey Stand during half-time before they were stretchered towards the tunnel with the second period delayed for 20 minutes as a result.

A club statement reads: “Ipswich Town Football Club can confirm a medical emergency occurred in the lower tier of the Sir Alf Ramsey Stand, during half-time of this evening’s game with Queens Park Rangers at Portman Road. 

“Our thoughts are firmly with the family and friends of the supporter, with the club offering full support to all those affected. There will be no further comment at this time.”
