US Fans in Town - Ipswich Town News
After the recent influx of Swedish fans into Portman Road, this week it's the turn of US-based supporters to pay a visit to watch the Blues in action. A number of members of the North American Branch of the Supporters Club will be over for the Southampton and Sheffield United games.
Amongst those travelling is Mick Scrivener, the secretary of the branch. Mick told TWTD that he is keen to add to their numbers: "I am trying to promote our group to increase membership. I am sure there are a lot of people in the US that do not know we are here, but read your site and listen to Naked Football or have friends and relatives that do.”
