Milne: Town Not Up for Sale - Ipswich Town News
Joint-managing director Ian Milne (pictured left) has dismissed claims that Town are up for sale. Rumours that owner Marcus Evans is looking to sell the club he bought in late 2007 have been circulating for a number of weeks, gaining pace on Twitter earlier today.
However, Milne, who took on the role of joint-managing director along with fellow board member Jonathan Symonds after Simon Clegg’s departure last week, has rejected the claims.
"Unsolicited interest has been expressed from time to time, but none have involved any serious offer or any attempt to follow up," he said. "The club is not up for sale.”
