Debentures Going Well - Ipswich Town News

Town chairman David Sheepshanks says that the debenture scheme is on target. The scheme allows fans to buy season tickets for 10 or 20 years.

Fans could register their interest in debentures up to last Friday and are now starting to receive their forms. Sheepshanks says he is pleased with the way things are going: "We have had a very encouraging response and we are pretty much on target of attracting the amount of people we expected.

"What we need to do now is crystalise that interest and the important thing is people return the application forms by the end of the month."

The club say that any supporters interested in the scheme who are yet to inform them can still register their interest.

Up to yesterday more than 7,000 season tickets had been sold with the majority of supporters normally renewing in the last week of the early discount. We understand that the club is targeting 16,000 season ticket holders.

Fans are being told they will have to wait until around two weeks after the may discount deadline before they receive their actual tickets.

Chairman David Sheepshanks has chaired a number of meetings over the last week with investors interested in the loan stock scheme.
