Friday, 15th May 2026 18:40

Town have added general counsel Laura McCallum and chief revenue officer Andrew Wood to the board of Gamechanger 20 Ltd.

McCallum, the club’s first ever in-house general counsel, began working at the club in September, while Wood joined the Blues in November.

Chairman Mark Ashton said: “We are delighted to welcome Laura and Andrew to the board of Gamechanger 20 Ltd.

“Both have been excellent additions since they joined us towards the end of 2025 and will bring a wealth of experience to the board, as we continue the club’s growth at a time when we are preparing to return to the Premier League.”

McCallum has also been appointed the company secretary of Gamechanger and Ipswich Town Football Club Ltd with chief financial officer Tom Ball having previously been in that role.

Meanwhile, chief operating officer Luke Werhun has joined the board of Paradigm Sports Intelligence Ltd, the club’s data company. McCallum has also replaced Ball as the secretary of that company.

Absolutely 100% we need a chairman or chairwoman, if GC20 haven't learned from what happened then I really don't know what it takes. Ashton has bags of energy and passion, but he gets carried away on a wave of his own ideas - sometimes they're great, sometimes they are disastrous. That's why it is the standard model in business that CEOs are answerable to a chair. Come on GC20, do the right thing.

captaincrunch added 14:24 - May 17 Good to see the club growing in different departments. It would be wrong to assume this is not optimal unless there was a good reason to suggest otherwise. But that goes without saying but you do always get some folks saying they know different.
