Independent supporters group Blue Action has issued a statement disputing aspects of the club’s version of the events relating to their protest at Playford Road last Monday which led to training being suspended for 10 minutes.
After the demonstration, the club issued a statement having been approached by the national media, which read: "There was an incident at the training ground this morning where flares were thrown over a perimeter fence adjacent to the players.
"The flares caused signage on the fence to catch alight and in doing so put our staff at risk.
"The police were called and are investigating the matter. The supporters' group concerned have apologised for their actions.”
However, in a lengthy response released on social media, Blue Action dispute much of that account.
Suffolk Constabulary issued a statement regarding the incident last Tuesday: "Police were called at 10.30am yesterday (Monday 15th February) to reports of a number of people setting off flares on Playford Road in Ipswich.
"Those involved reportedly left the scene on foot, heading towards Rushmere Heath.
"Police attended and searched the area but found no trace of any suspects. Enquiries are ongoing.”
