Season Tickets Sales Receive Boost - Ipswich Town News
Town season ticket sales for next season are closing in on the 14,000 mark having received a major boost since Roy Keane was named as the club's new boss last week. More than 750 new applications have been processed since the managerial appointment last Thursday.
Prior to the change of manager the Blues had already sold around 13,000 season tickets but now look on course to match and almost certainly surpass last season's total of around 15,500.
The club relaunched their early bird ticket pricing late last week in the wake of Keane joining the Blues.
Meanwhile, Sunday's final game of the season at home to Coventry (KO 1.15pm) promises to be a sell-out. Tickets are still on sale from the Ticket Office, but are going quickly and the club are yet to decide whether seats will be available on the turnstiles.
