North Stand scoreboard sponsored by Broseley Homes with little spud shaped cartoon men celebrating a goal.
Not in the ground but I really miss the old club shop on PR…..as a kid I was overwhelmed by the amount of ITFC treasure laid out before me! The place was more like a large cupboard than a shop.

That shop was the nuts to a 10 year old! Cushions, tankards, mugs, a colour pic of every squad member, note books, pencils, anything you desired!

Public address announcements,like, 'Would Mr X please go to the Ipswich General Hospital as his wife's gone into labour '
Ha ha, I remember them.
One of them was something like - Would Mr Jones of Acacia Avenue please go home immediately as your house is on fire.
......
Boiled burgers - with boiled onions Woollen blue gloves with a couple of white stripes P1ssing where you stand Coins Vouchers Cash turnstiles - how much money must have been nicked?
“Hello, I'm your MP. Actually I'm not. I'm your candidate. Gosh.”

I remember an announcement that Mr Fred Jones (or such like) might want to know that his hot dog stand is on fire.

I do wonder why this doesn't happen. Quicker, cheaper and less waste.
And the water is fresher. I've had tea a couple of times in SBR this season and on both occasions the water was stale which suggests they don't empty the tanks after a game, or don't run the water for long enough before filling them.
