South-West Branch Evening With Skuse Plus Barbecue Invite - Ipswich Town News

The South-West Branch of the Supporters Club are holding an evening with Cole Skuse at The Old Fishmarket pub in Baldwin Street, Bristol on Friday 4th September (7pm for 8pm start).

The Yate-born midfielder was with Bristol City from the age of 10 until joining the Blues in the summer of 2013.

The South-West Branch have previously held similar events with Russell Osman and Tyrone Mings.

Meanwhile, fans based in the South-West - or elsewhere if they fancy it - are also invited, along with their families, to a barbecue being held by TWTD forum poster McCarthyEra on Sunday 16th August at his home eight miles north of Gloucester (noon until 5pm-ish).

McCarthyEra says there’s plenty of space to kick a football about and to bring something to drink and a donation to pop on the coals. Send him a PM here to get directions.
