Cheltenham Match Town's Remembrance Fixture - Ipswich Town News

Town have announced that the Cheltenham match on Saturday 12th November will be this season's dedicated Remembrance fixture.

The Blues will wear shirts bearing poppies for the Bracknell FA Cup tie next Monday and when the Robins visit in the league five days later.

Matchworn and prepared shirts from the Cheltenham game will be signed and auctioned with all proceeds going to the Royal British Legion, who will be collecting outside the ground, in the FanZone and in hospitality areas at the match.

Soldiers from RAF Wattisham will be present along with a bugler from the East of England Co-op brass band performing The Last Post prior to the match. Troops from 7 Para RHA will be in the FanZone.

Town have branded 2022 poppy lapel pins on sale in Planet Blue for a donation of £4.99 which are expected to sell out quickly.
