Town to Face Kiwomya's Notts County in Pre-Season - Ipswich Town News
TWTD understands that Town are close to confirming a pre-season friendly against Chris Kiwomya’s Notts County at Meadow Lane on Saturday 27th July.
The proposed friendly at Norwich City had been pencilled in for that weekend, the last before the 2013/14 Football League season proper gets underway, prior to being abandoned earlier this month.
Town were last at Meadow Lane in September 2003 for a Carling Cup tie which the home side won 2-1.
Former Blues striker and coach Kiwomya was handed a three-year deal as boss of the Magpies in March having taken over after Keith Curle’s departure.
