Departing loan keeper David Stockdale says he enjoyed his five months on loan at Portman Road. The 26-year-old was recalled by parent club Fulham yesterday.
Stockdale told the club site: "I loved my time at Ipswich and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Great set of lads, great manager, great coaching staff and I can't speak highly enough of the place.
"The fans have been brilliant as well. They've been behind the team every game. It's been an up and down season so far but they've stuck by the players, which means a lot and I'd like to thank them.
"I really hope that sooner rather than later they can be watching their side playing in the Premier League because their support deserves it."
The former Darlington and York man says he could return to Portman Road once Mark Schwarzer is over his neck injury: "There may be a chance of me coming back. That's not really up to me and at the moment I just want to concentrate on getting back and doing my best for Fulham.
"If the chance came for me to come back and it suited all parties then it is definitely something I'd look into though.
"Fulham have got some big games coming up - especially Man United and Chelsea - so I want to do well and show people what I've learned at Ipswich and show what I've been doing in games and training, working along some great coaches such as Malcolm Webster.
"I just want to thank everyone at Ipswich for giving me this chance and I really have learned a lot from the experience.
"It would have been nice to have stayed and tried to have got the club into the Premier League, but I've got to concentrate on doing my best for Fulham now. I know the club are being left in good hands though as Wrighty and Arran are two great keepers."
