Fans who go to away games regularly on 17:08 - Oct 3 with 2430 views | Timefliesbyintheblue | For the last few years we have been dearer than most other League one grounds for visiting supporters and one of the least inviting towns, which I think is sad. I travel to most away fixtures and the restrictions we put on visitors as to where they can drink is very rare. I can understand their frustration. |  | |  |

Agree. While they are provided with their own pub in an ideal location, how many people in Ipswich would normally visit the Station pub ? I wouldn’t. I remember a Tuesday night home match against Blackburn when a couple of their supporters were thrown out of a quiet pub after showing their shirts. There were only about a 100 of them that evening. |  | |  |

It's very, very quiet.

Fans who go to away games regularly on 21:04 - Oct 3 with 2132 views | Burns7 | We are too expensive for a League One club, and I thought frankly our tickets were a rip-off in the Championship too. I remember us being more expensive than half the top division at one point for football you wouldn't want to see for free some weeks. |  | |  |
Fans who go to away games regularly on 21:05 - Oct 3 with 2115 views | Bluefish | 25 is probably average |  |

Fans who go to away games regularly on 22:09 - Oct 3 with 2068 views | skinnybob72 | Burton was £18 for me and £5 for my son who is 8. Accrington was £20 for me and £5 for my son. Portsmouth is £24 for me and £7 for my son. However, Town add £1.50 to each ticket and another £1.75 to post them out. So prices vary a fair bit. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
Fans who go to away games regularly on 23:23 - Oct 3 with 2033 views | mattyhollandsirish | Sounds like a few Shrewsbury fans trying to justify why they'll bring about 200. Much like most other sides in this league. Nothing to do with price/covid rules. Not really meant to be a dig, just no one bar the Wednesdays, Pompey, Sunderland of the league etc travel. |  | |  |
Fans who go to away games regularly on 23:40 - Oct 3 with 2015 views | Swansea_Blue | It’s the least of your worries when you go away as well. Travel, food, etc., costs far more. |  |

Even with the restrictions Covid is still being spread at Portman Road. |  |

On average this season I have paid £25 for away tickets + surcharge/delivery on top. I think in this division anything <£25 is fine. Once it starts getting beyond that it feels unnecessary. |  | |  |

What restrictions are these? Do pubs in the town stop members of the public choosing where they want to have a pint? I find that hard to believe. |  | |  |

Got 6 tickets for Cambridge, paid the £1.75 postage and the club sent them in 6 separate envelopes... couldn't make it up |  | |  |
Fans who go to away games regularly on 17:03 - Oct 4 with 1671 views | Mullet | The cost of everything seems to be going up, but my returns to FPR always cost the most I think. I'm sure it's roughly £28 for a one off ticket in Churchmans. Still at least it's better than when Leeds charge you £40 to go to chuffing Leeds. |  |

Fans who go to away games regularly on 17:35 - Oct 4 with 1634 views | Vaughan8 | Yes we are expensive. However I paid £23 for a Stevenage v tranmere game a few years back in League 2 so in comparison to that...... We are epxnesive and they can rightly moan at that. The covid thing isn't really much is it? N ot sure why so many people have a problem with it. Aren't many other clubs doing it then? |  | |  |

If you are an away fan visiting Portman Rd, you will find it almost impossible to drink anywhere apart from The Station Hotel. More so if you are in a group or and wearing colours. Ipswich Pubs are told to be Home supporters only. |  | |  |

I would have been amazed if it hadn’t. However, the clubs rules re Covid vaccination and ID are hardly the draconian measures some visiting supporters seem to be suggesting. |  |

It's very, very quiet.
