Trust Collecting Signatures at Boro Game - Ipswich Town News

Ipswich Town Ist, the Supporters Trust, will again be by the statue of Sir Alf Ramsey collecting signatures for their petition calling on the club to opt for Category One Academy status before Saturday’s game against Middlesbrough. The petition, which was launched last month, has already topped the 5,000 mark.

The Blues are still to decide whether to choose Category One or the cheaper Category Two option with other clubs, including Norwich City, already having committed to the former.

The Trust has also launched a new website here which includes a recent exchange of letters with Blues chief executive Simon Clegg on the club’s plans for the Academy.
