I remember going there a few months after the pub bombings and the twats started singing "There was a tavern in the town" and "Here we go round the Mulberry Bush." SHA,Coventry,SHA, Leeds,SHA, Millwall oh and SHA.It always annoyed me in '81 when the media were all over Ipswich and we pi**ed on their party.Apparently we only won the title because they were playing a lot of FA Cup and European games on top of their league schedule. Apparently they were a better team than us. Which is an interesting opinion considering in the following two years we went on to win the European Cup and European Super Cup and they won bugger all.

Why don't they ever bang on about how they should have won the league the year after, but Liverpool won because they cheated in some way, like by winning more matches than them?Worth pointing out that we finished miles ahead of Ipswich in the end, it would have been a bigger margin of victory if it was 3 points for a win.
Only thing is in their defence is that they beat us 3 times that season but we still won the league, happy days.

They got four points from their last eight games.
Maybe they shouldn't have prematurely started celebrating their title win in the dressing room at Villa Park. Because having recently read Kenny Swain's autobiography it really pumped the Villa players up.
