Do You Remember ... 2001/2002
...Blues' recent European Tours?
When David Sheepshanks became Chairman in 1995, Blues having been relegated to the second tier earlier that year, he boldly stated that his aim was to bring Premier League and European football back to Portman Road. After the repeated play-off heartbreaks of the late 1990s it seemed as though Burley's Boys would fall short of the Chairman's goals but, having won promotion in 2000, Blues shocked the establishment by winning a UEFA Cup place with three games to spare and even threatening to take one of the coveted Champions League positions on the final day of the season!

Do You Remember ... Sunday 8th May, 1994
The Great Escape!
When John Lyall's Blues won the Second Division Championship for the third time in the club's history in 1992, it marked the end of an era for English football. Why? That August, after over 100 years of being the top League competition in England the Football League gave up that title to the newly formed FA Premier League, and Blues were therefore one of its founder members. The season began exceedingly well and by the New Year were in fifth place, having lost only two out of 22 League games. A post-Christmas slump saw Blues finish the season in 16th place, but the following season the fans had renewed optimism as Blues won their opening three games and were perched near the top of the table. One of the best teams in the land, perhaps..?

Do You Remember ... February/March 1981
When Town scored 11 goals in a week... all away from home?
At the height of their powers, and chasing honours in three competitions, Bobby Robson's team were taking on - and beating - all-comers in the Spring of 1981. Coming off the back of six straight home games - all won - Blues faced a tricky week involving all three competitions.

Do You Remember... 1973
...when the kids came good?
Bobby Robson had been at Ipswich for three and a half years when the 1972/73 season got under way. In that time the Club had not managed to finish in the top half of the First Division, but the board at Ipswich had patience in abundance. They would have known, and seen, the year-on-year improvements that Robson was making around the Club, notably the building of the impressive Portman Road stand in the summer of 1971. Knowing that the Club could not afford to buy success, Robson had focused on developing the youth structure at the Club, which had been started by Jackie Milburn, and was afforded the time to allow this to bear fruit. Young players such as Mick Lambert, Laurie Sivell, Geoff Hammond, Clive Woods and Trevor Whymark were all given their first team debuts by Robson in these early years, and the new season started with yet another home-grown debutant - the 18-year-old Kevin Beattie.
