Copies of 1980-81 The Greatest Season in Ipswich Town’s History signed by legendary Blues skipper Mick Mills are now on sale from TWTD. The book, written by Mel Henderson, Town's public relations officer at the time, is a superb account of the year in which the club won the UEFA Cup and just missed out on a treble.
1980-81 The Greatest Season in Ipswich Town’s History features interviews with all that season’s players, Sir Bobby Robson and Bobby Ferguson, as well as Mills’s top ten matches and top ten goals from the season.
The man who held the UEFA Cup aloft says all Town fans should own a copy: "1980-81 was an incredible season and I was proud to be part of such a great team. If you love Ipswich Town then you will love this book.”
