New Turnstile Blues On Sale Saturday - Ipswich Town News

The 18th issue of Town fanzine Turnstile Blues will be on sale at Portman Road this Saturday.

The new issue is dedicated to Kevin Beattie, and features a variety of tributes to the Beat from a wide range of Town fans, including David Dymond of the Blue Monday podcast and Graham Blackburn from The Naked Football Show.

Memories of Beattie and Bobby Robson are also included in a lengthy interview with Anglia TV legend Gerry Harrison, who shares a vast array of stories from his days covering the Blues during Town's glory years.

There are also some reflections on Town's start to the season under Paul Hurst, and a reminder that other managers have found things tough when they first take on the job.

There are also some observations on Hurst's pre-season comments about Tom Adeyemi, and analysis of whether Huddersfield Town's success provides any kind of blueprint for getting promoted from the Championship.

TB18, priced £1 will be on sale from around the ground - most sellers will be located near to Sir Alf Ramsey's statue - from around 2.15pm on Saturday. If you can't make it to the game you can buy a copy from eBay.
