Same here. My father also regularly tells the story of the day 'Ted broke the net'. | | | |

RIP Ted Phillips on 11:43 - Jan 9 with 5841 views | Steve_M | Yes, an important part of the club's history. I hope the club name something after him and Ray Crawford, it should be both as the two names go together as they did at their best.

RIP Ted Phillips on 12:02 - Jan 9 with 5810 views | bobwya | RIP Ted. I was a ballboy for 2 seasons 56 - 58 and although I remember enjoying it so much I was always worried when behind one of the goals that one of his thunderbolts would come straight at me! I recall we had rickety old changing rooms then and the scratchy old tannoy was operated from the room we changed in and Ted was often bringing in records to play - his favourite seemed to be Diana by Paul Ania! Truly a club legend RIP | | | |

Absolute legend, as were all of the title winning team. They were wonderful days in the history of ITFC. RIP Ted and thanks for the memories. | | | |

Indeed. It's hard to imagine any Town strike partnership ever matching the 70 they scored in 61/62. It would be great if the club could mark their contribution permanently. A statue of the two of them would be appropriate, although I'm not sure where it would go... Too many statues, what a problem... What else could the club do? Genuine question... Maybe other people on here have ideas...? | |

A statue might be an idea, would have to be entirely funded by supporters I would think and no idea what that would cost. I would think somewhere near the entrance to the back of the Co-Op Stand where the old ticket office was. Can't really rename three of the stands and the sponsorship of the fourth is useful - and if we wait for the Cobbold rebuild it will be a long time. | |

For a start, the club could inaugurate an award for the leading scorer every season (is there already one?) and call it the Crawford-Phillips Trophy. But, based on this evidence, I will certainly be raising a pre-match pint of beer to Ted before Saturday's match. http://www.eadt.co.uk/sport/memories-of-town-legend-ted-phillips-1-5347882 | |
