Pullen and Painter on Life's a Pitch - Ipswich Town News

Life’s a Pitch is live on BBC Radio Suffolk from the FanZone at lunchtime on Saturday with Blues kitman and former keeper James Pullen and Town-supporting darts star Kevin Painter joining regulars Mark Murphy, legend-in-residence Kevin Beattie, New Tractorboy and TWTD's Phil Ham (12-2pm).

Pullen is calling on fans to stage a minute’s applause in the 67th minute of Saturday’s game in tribute to his friend and colleague Dick Parker, who died suddenly last weekend.

Painter will be looking ahead to his first round match at the 2018 PDC World Darts Championship against Mensur Suljovic on Monday evening (7pm). The 50-year-old will be taking part in his 24th world championships, his 17th staged by the PDC.

Can Town continue their recent positive home form? Can David McGoldrick make a goalscoring return? Give us your thoughts on those questions or anything else via email, Mark’s Twitter or during the show by phone on 01473 212121 or text to 81333 starting your message with SFK.
