Contribute to TWTD's Cup Final Special - Ipswich Town News

We're starting to put together the last fanzine of the season, issue 92, and as ever are after contributions. As the issue coincides with the 30th anniversary of the 1978 FA Cup final, we're after plenty of articles on one of the greatest days in the club's history.

In the current issue of the fanzine, David Huxley writes about his cup final day having travelled over from Holland and we're after more of that sort of thing. Plus any tales from other matches along the way, be they relating to clearing snow at Bristol Rovers, having bricks thrown at you at Millwall or anything else

If you're too young to remember 1978, feel free to write about anything else as we still want plenty of the regular stuff in addition to the FA Cup material. Send any articles to philip.ham@twtd.co.uk.

Issue 91 is still available and will be on sale at next week's home game with Cardiff City from our sellers around the ground. Alternatively, you can purchase a single copy or six-issue subscription here and have TWTD delivered to your door.

This issue contains and interview with chief executive Derek Bowden, while Gavin Barber uncovers more of Richard Scudamore's plans for the Premier League, the new signings are assessed, there's a feature on following lower league German football and specifically Union Berlin, advice to a newborn Town fan, a piece on women and football and much more.
