Just 600 for Helsingborgs - Ipswich Town News

Reports over the weekend suggest that Town will get just 600 seats for the away leg of the UEFA Cup game with Helsingborgs. The capacity of their ground is reduced for UEFA games and only 12,000 are admitted.

No further ticket details are available at the moment, although it is likely that a priority of Away Match Passport holders, then Portman Plus Gold members, then season ticket holders and Portman Plus members will be put in place.

Titus Bramble was the only Town player announced in either of the two England squads. Bramble missed the last U21 match with injury but is recalled to David Platt's squad.

Squad: Chris Kirkland (Liverpool), Paul Robinson (Leeds), Stuart Taylor (Arsenal), Luke Young (Charlton), Wayne Bridge (Southampton), Stephen Wright (Liverpool), Ledley King (Tottenham), Gareth Barry (Aston Villa), Titus Bramble (Ipswich), Chris Riggott (Derby), Seth Johnson (Derby), Sean Davis (Fulham), David Dunn (Blackburn), Jonathan Greening (Boro), Mark Wilson (Boro), Scott Parker (Charlton), Owen Hargreaves (Bayern Munich), Michael Carrick (West Ham), David Prutton (Nott'm For), Luke Chadwick (Man Utd), Darius Vassell (Aston Villa), Francis Jeffers (Arsenal), Malcolm Christie (Derby), Tommy Smith (Watford), Shola Ameobi (Newcastle).

TWTD has Town Topics up on a number of subjects at the moment. There's one for your Moscow Memories. What was your stay in the Russian capital like? Was it ruined by problems on the official trip or did everything go swimmingly, including the result?
