Unusual friendly 20:30 - Jul 31 with 1244 views | emergencylime | I see (according to FlashScore) that Ndaba’s new club Lecce had a pre-season friendly against UAE today. Is this a thing i’ve missed, where a club plays a national team? If so, what country should ITFC play next summer? |  |

“Ipswich Town played an England XI in a testimonial match for Sir Bobby Robson at Portman Road in 1979. The game ended in a 2-2 draw, with Paul Mariner and Alan Brazil scoring for Ipswich. George Best played for Ipswich in this match. This event was part of a series of tributes to Robson, who managed both Ipswich and England.” |  |

Bizarrely it was Bobby Fergusons side midway through the 85-86 season It appears we played 4 games.... 2 each against Bahrain & Iraq 13th/14th Feb 1986 v Bahrain, winning 2-1 and 1-0 2/4th March 1986 v Iraq, winning 1-0 and drawing 0-0 I can't remember why there was such a massive break in the fixtures to allow this? Strike? Bad weather? |  | |  |

I'm sure the UK had bad snow around February 1986, from memory? I remember a programme cover for the game against Forest (I think) which was a heavily snow covered Portman Road. |  |
