Framlingham 1-11 Town Res - Ipswich Town News

A young Town side went on a goal rampage on Wednesday night, defeating Framlingham Town 11-1 in the memorial match for Fram fan Jean Frost, who recently lost her life in a car accident.

Jack Ainsley hit a hat-trick, Jordan Rhodes two, Craig Calver two, while Ed Upson, Liam Trotter, Luke Hyam and Liam Barrett were also on the scoresheet. In action for Framlingham were former Blues Mick Stockwell and Kevin Steggles.
