The best Johnson, and others
at 16:33 13 Aug 2025

I was wondering how Ben Johnson compares to the other Johnsons from down the years.

Which got me wondering about surnames that have been shared by multiple Town players. I've gone off https://www.worldfootball.net/teams/ipswich-town/10/ for the stats and had to keep it strict with only those of the same spelling. So while there are three Woodses and one Wood, they don't count together to reach the thresholds of four needed to be added below. And not even the Thompson, Thomsen, Thomson combo gets in.

Listed is their country, position and DOB.

Before scrolling, can you guess the clear winner of most common surname in Town history? (It's not Johnson.)

Youth shirt size guide
at 13:15 19 Nov 2023

Hi
The size guide for the Youth XL shirt doesn't make sense when you look at the cm and inch measurements. If anyone has one, can you please measure the width and length of the shirt - our nearly 13yo would be very appreciative.

Thank you!

The new shirts - children's sizing
at 22:41 27 Aug 2022

Hi
I'm going to order one of the new shirts for our lad and I believe the sizing is different from the Adidas ones. But I don't know if this means they come up large or small.

Does anyone know which size fits someone who wears 11-12 size t-shirts?
