1993–94 Ipswich Town F.C. season

During the 1993–94 English football season, Ipswich Town competed in the FA Premier League.

Key Information

Season summary

[edit]

Ipswich Town looked to improve on their 16th-place finish of the previous campaign. Their initial form was promising, and in November they held Manchester United to a goalless draw at Old Trafford. But, as had happened a season earlier, their late season form took a dramatic slump and they found themselves in a relegation battle. The 5–1 home defeat to Arsenal was Ipswich's worst home defeat in 18 years.[1]

Ipswich failed to win their last 11 games but their survival was secured on the final day of the season after fellow strugglers Sheffield United were beaten by a late goal by Chelsea and Oldham Athletic failed to beat Norwich City.

Kit

[edit]

Ipswich Town's kit was manufactured by English company Umbro and sponsored by Ipswich-based chemical manufacturer Fisons.
