Maybe I'm the only one but I didn't realise we solely owned the stat/record "to fail to score in their first three games in consecutive top-flight campaigns" until Aston Villa did it yesterday.
I know the man utd haven't lost at-home from winning at half time since ipswich did it in the 80s
Also the obvious 9-0
Also we haven't lost at home in Europe stat.
Is there anything else? |  | | |  |

Bit niche, we were the last opposition to score at Goodison.
And we were the last team Liverpool scored against in front of the old standing Kop. |
That was Norwich not us 🤷♂️ | | | |

Ipswich were the last winners of the’Daily Express National 5-a-side ‘ tournament in 1977 beating Coventry 3-1 in the final at the Wembley Empire Pool before it was renamed Wembley arena.
It was a big and loved event at the time shown I believe on Sports night with Colman.
And we did not hold an open top bus parade! | | | |

Indeed we were, and he got a great reception from the town fans and I believe a memento from our board of directors. Just as you would expect from ITFC. |
I was there in West Stand on the tunnel side and he got a standing ovation from the whole stadium. He was visibly moved. Richly deserved too. |  | | |

In the time of the Cobbolds we had the only Boardroom where the drinks cabinet was regularly drunk dry and then a crisis meeting had to be held over the lack of white wine... |  |

Ipswich Town were the only professional club in England to cease playing football during WW2. Portman Rd was also not used for football in WW1. It was turned over to the army for storing horses, guns etc. The then amateur ITFC returned to action in Sept 1920, nearly two years after WW1 ended.
In 1927 Sidney Norman Webster won the Schneider Trophy air race in Venice in a Supermarine S5 seaplane (designed by Spitfire chief designer RJ Mitchell). He made 69 appearances at full back for ITFC and was a former club captain. No other club can claim that! | | | |

The irony being that nowadays if you're representing itfc on match days you are not allowed to drink alcohol, that's reserved for the visiting dignitaries only. |  |

Alas. The last English team to play Manchester United's "Busby Babes" before their tragic Munich Airport plane crash in 1958. | | | |

We've never had an empty trophy cabinet, unlike you know who |
Well it was probably pretty empty in 1878, possibly all the way until 1937 when we won the Southern League. (hat tip: Wikipedia)
Not sure what of note might have gone in there prior. |  |

I’m sure there was another match that summer. I can’t remember whether that was an international or they squeezed in the Charity Shield before closing the place down. |  |

'On 7 October 2000, England met Germany during the qualifying stages of the 2002 World Cup. It was the final match to be played at the original Wembley Stadium.'

[edit: 'Last matches
On 20 May 2000, the last FA Cup final to be played at the old Wembley saw Chelsea defeat Aston Villa with the only goal scored by Roberto Di Matteo... The final competitive club match there was the 2000 First Division play-off final on 29 May 2000, between Ipswich Town and Barnsley, a 4–2 win resulting in promotion to the Premier League for Ipswich..
The last club match of all was the 2000 Charity Shield, in which Chelsea defeated Manchester United 2–0. The last international match was on 7 October,.. in Kevin Keegan's last game as England manager. England were defeated 0–1 by Germany, with Dietmar Hamann scoring the last goal at the original Wembley.... On that day, Tony Adams made his 60th Wembley appearance, a record for any player... Adams also claimed England's final goal at the stadium, having scored in the previous home fixture against Ukraine on 31 May 2000...'
