Edited - Changed the title from - 'Is this year ITFC best season ever? Here is some stats' to the new thread title above. Many apologies. I was eating last nights left over pizza when I typed that part in.
I woke up a tad excited after last nights result so wanted to see how this season has gone to seasons gone previously. However it seems I've got a tad carried away Anyway thought I share my findings. Tried to put the current season into bold so it stands out from the other seasons but far to dense to to do it. Anyway hope everyone is well.
Also, If you see any errors please leave a comment so I can change it.

Bobby Moore & a Mick Mills goal. Oh & the other link is a 3-1 Fa Cup win against Chelmsford in 1973 (50 years ago)
Anglia TV Match Of The Week November 1969 Snowy conditions at Portman Road Ipswich 1-0 West Ham Commentator Gerry Harrison #ITFC#WHUpic.twitter.com/Ja1Sld5i8t
The first game at Portman Road is from 15/11/68 & is viewed from behind the North Stand goal & is filmed in Black & White. John Jackson who once played for us & died recently started in goal for Palace. David Hill registered his first goals for the towm in this game & it was John ORourke's last game for us. https://www.prideofanglia.com/page.php?page=matchReport&level=1&day=15&a
Game starts 42:14 (Palace at home) If the link does not work. You will find the game by searching the youtube engine by putting in "15/11/1969 - The Big Match"
Game Starts at 42:22 (Palace Away) If the link does not work. You will find the game by searching the youtube engine by putting in "28/03/1970 - Football"
Where we hammered Spurs 4-0 when the Portman Road Stand was under construction on both sides to expand it.
The first goal we scored we only had nine men on the pitch (Trying to remember another time we done that) A peach of a header from Beattie for the 2nd A well deserved third for Lambert after having a perfectly good goal disallowed minutes before & Osborne with his 1st goal for the club to make it four
Edit if the link does not start where it should its 31:07 in
The year shown is where they finished in League one that particular year. & where they finished the following season in the Championship is in brackets. Hope that makes sense.
As I Said in another thread. In the last four years no team promoted from League one has finished higher then 15th in the Championship the following year.
