French champions Paris Saint-Germain equalled Town's 31-match ongoing European home unbeaten record by defeating Cypriot side Apoel Nicosia 1-0 in the Champions League this evening.
The Blues' record goes back to the European Cup preliminary round tie with Maltese club Floriana in September 1962, which was won 10-0, to the 1-0 UEFA Cup second round first leg victory over Czech side Slovan Liberec in October 2002.
PSG’s run stretches from November 2006 and they have won their last 12 European home matches. Unlike Town, who have never been beaten at Portman Road in Europe, they had been defeated at home prior to the current ongoing run.
In 2007 Dutch side AZ Alkmaar, Town’s 1981 UEFA Cup final opponents, surpassed Town's run by one before they were finally defeated by Everton.
Meanwhile, Blues striker Daryl Murphy has reached 10 league goals faster than any Town player since Ray Crawford in the 1968/69 season.
Murphy hit his ninth and 10th goals in Town’s 16th match - his 15th as he missed the Blackburn fixture - Tuesday's 2-1 victory over Wolves, while Crawford reached the same total after 12 games of the 1968/69 campaign.
Previously, Crawford (1960/61 and 1963/63) and his equally legendary strike partner Ted Phillips (1961/62) hit the 10-goal mark after only 11 matches, a club record.
Prior to this season Marcus Stewart was quickest to the 10-goal mark in the 2000s, getting there in 17 games of Town’s UEFA Cup-qualifying 2000/01 Premier League season.
Elsewhere, BBC Radio Suffolk commentator Brenner Woolley has apologised for referring to callers to the station's post-match phone-in as "the great unwashed" in a half-time conversation with summariser Mick Mills which was inadvertently broadcast on Ipswich Player on Tuesday.
A Radio Suffolk spokesman said: "We have spoken to Brenner and made clear to him that these comments are unacceptable. Brenner accepts this and has apologised.”
