Town have confirmed that home matches will return to being played behind closed doors until further notice with Suffolk moving into tier four from Boxing Day following an announcement this afternoon.

The games against Portsmouth and Burton Albion were watched by 2,000 season ticket holders with the Blues then in tier two.

However, clubs in areas in tiers three and four are not permitted to admit supporters.

With the Boxing Day home game against Northampton off due to Town’s positive Covid-19 tests, the Blues are next due to be in action at Portman Road on Saturday 9th January when Swindon visit for a match which is being shown live on Sky Sports.

Season ticket holders will continue to receive an iFollow code for each home game.

In addition, Planet Blue will close at 4pm on Christmas Even until further notice.

Linkboy13 added 18:30 - Dec 23 With the seriousness of the present situation should we be playing football at all. I just think it sends out the wrong message especially to people who are not football lovers. I hope everybody has a very healthy Christmas and let's hope for a better 2021 .
