'I just saw an Ipswich shirt' Thread 13:07 - Jul 12 with 18713 viewshatch

Not sure if this exists already but I'm forever seeing Town shirts out and about and on TV so thought we should document sightings to see how far spread we are and whether any posters have been spotted.

I'm not talking about those niche ones of the past, just any from now on or recent weeks.

My recents are:

Carer's Trust shirt walking through Tulse Hill the other day
Last season's shirt with a Swindon fan at Red Bull Soapbox races
Yellow vintage Town shirt front row at the Oval just now

A few years ago I gave a Town shirt to a sports bar called Jobos in Downtown El Gouna Egypt. It has typically many shirts of major football clubs from around the world draped over the 'ceiling'

Next year I went back and was thrilled to see that they had properly framed my Town shirt which sat proudly on the wall for all to see, the only framed one there.

I've been back a few times since and while the 'big' cubs shirts and flags have faded in the sun, our shirt is pristine.

Been back a few times since and it's still there!

Saw an orange away one at Edgbaston for Birmingham Phoenix vs Oval Invincibles on Sunday. I was wearing my blue one too but had a top on over it at the time I saw his - did manage an "Up the Town!" though.

Not an “I saw" as such. But in the early noughties, I was working in Amman, and wore my town shirt down to breakfast in the hotel, as was off to gym afterwards. The waiter came over all excited, and proceeded to explain to me that king Hussein's mother was from Ipswich.


Chelmo to be precise. Distant relative of mine!

In 2019 I was crossing the border between the very north of Thailand and Laos. It was very rural with no major tourist sites in either direction. I was on a bus about to go to across the border when an old Thai lady walked past in a green king 99/00 home shirt.

Not sure it counts unless anyone else was down there and saw us. But my two sons and I wore ours around Weymouth and the surrounding area the past week

Poll: Is it Pink home and away from now on in

This is possible the best post that I’ve ever read on here.

I was in Ecternach at the weekend, my wife pointed out an "Ipswich" shirt on the other side of the street...

I haven't told her that it was a Schalke shirt yet.

Saw a kid with this seasons Town training top with his family outside Waterloo today. And then walked into Waterloo and Flynn Downes walked past me, I’m guessing having just got in from Southampton. Double header.

Monday 7th August AM, Heathrow T3 arrivals, what I assume was a Dad wearing his ITFC shirt, meeting his son with a big emotional hug. Gave me a lump in the throat!

And then, the other day, a chap cutting his hedge in Bermuda. I was a bit disappointed by this one as I thought I was the only Blue in the village!

Slightly different angle on this. Just had a post training pint in Battersea in my white away kit and a bloke comes up to me and says “you a town fan? My dad’s Paul Mariner”.

Turns out it’s Joe Mariner (think that was his name!) and what a lovely bloke. Spoke for ages and he said how well Mark Ashton looked after him when he was on the pitch for the Ipswich v Plymouth game last season. Sadly he’s a Liverpool fan as he loved Robbie Fowler.

I think they used to have a supporters club many moons ago, not sure if its still active. My mate used to work on the ships and bump into them when docked, sure he had a polo top with Bermuda blues.
