Dons Game Off - Ipswich Town News

Town have cancelled their controversial pre-season friendly against MK Dons. Fans had called on the Blues to cancel the planned game against the franchise club.

New boss Jim Magilton says that the game, set for July 12th, isn't in line with his pre-season schedule: "I have my own ideas about the tempo of our pre-season and want to mix it up a bit.

"Unfortunately the match doesn't fit in with the plans Bryan Klug and myself are drawing up for the start of the season."
