A message from Ipswich Town Chairman, Mark Ashton. ⤵️





Nigel Farage’s visit to Ipswich Town this week has sparked a major backlash. Fans have accused the club of allowing itself to be used for political purposes, but there is also internal dissent at the club’s handling of the affair. The Athletic can now reveal that the club’s depiction of the visit, as presented to both staff and media, is being heavily disputed. This is the inside story of a chaotic 72 hours. 📝 @Dan_Sheldon_ 🔗 nyti.ms/3Pxq08A







I’ve never been too bad on the right wing. ✍️⚽️

Following Monday’s visit by the Reform party and its leader, Nigel Farage, the club would like to issue the following statement: Ipswich Town Football Club has, over several years, hosted representatives from a range of political parties. The club remains apolitical and does not support or endorse any individual or party. The club will continue to engage with representatives from across the political spectrum as part of its role within the community. Ipswich Town is proud to be an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming organisation that supports all members of the local and wider community. This commitment remains unchanged.

No Official Town Involvement in Farage Visit - Reform UK leader Nigel Farage visiting Portman Road yesterday had no official involvement from the club, TWTD understands. twtd.co.uk/ipswich-town-n… #itfc #efl #championship #LocalElections #Mayelections

Farage Number 10. ⚽️
