Ground Reviews
"The ground itself."
The ground is really easy to find, you'll struggle to find an Ipswich fan who wants to kick your head in and everyone always seems to be in good spirits although the home fans can be a little quiet inside the ground. There is lots to do outside the ground with plenty of pubs and places to eat although KFC get really busy so get in there early. The concourse in the ground serves all the usual match day food but due to the fact that the concourse is a little small it can sometimes take you a while to get served. The view from the away end is fairly good considering they tuck you away in the top corner of the Cobbald Stand along the side of the pitch. When i say cram you in, they really do cram you in. Not a great deal of leg room and you can, at times, feel like you are sitting on the lap of the person next to you. We ended up losing 1-0 to Ipswich which was a bit of a dissapointment but despite the result it was an enjoyable day once again. Probably my favorite ground.
