Wigan Game Live on Sky - Ipswich Town News
Town’s opening League One game of the season at home to Wigan Athletic has moved to Sunday 13th September with a midday kick-off for live Sky Sports coverage.
Despite the game being broadcast live, Town season ticket holders will still receive a free pass to watch the match via iFollow Ipswich but non-season ticket holders will not be able to watch via that route.
Wigan, relegated from the Championship and in administration, have former Blues striker Joe Garner in their squad, while another ex-Town frontman, Will Keane, is currently on trial.
Fans won't need to be reminded that the Blues have a poor record on Sky having not won for 16 matches in front of their cameras. Their last success was the 1-0 defeat of the MK Dons at Stadium MK in December 2015.
