Ipswich Town fans are set to line the streets outside Portman Road to cheer on the Blues ahead of Saturday's crucial game with Exeter City.

Kieran McKenna's team, having dispatched of promotion rivals Barnsley on Tuesday evening, know they will be promoted to the Championship if they win at home against the Devon side.

Influential fans' group Blue Action is now encouraging supporters to welcome the team bus ahead of the League One match, which kicks off at 3pm.

The game with Exeter, who are 14th in the division, will be Town's final match at Portman Road of the season – assuming they finish in either first or second place in the league.

 

 

Blue Action has described the game with the Grecians as "one of the biggest in recent years".

The group said in a social media post: "We are calling on fans to line the streets of Sir Alf Ramsey Way and Constantine Road to welcome the team coach into the ground.

"The coach is due to arrive between 1.15pm - 1.30pm, so get there in good time.

"Bring your scarves, flags and banners and give McKenna and the players a proper Suffolk reception as we bid to secure promotion back to the Championship."
