Town Have Top Pitch

By Aston
April 21 2005

The pitch at Portman Road has been voted best in the football league championship for the second year running.

Alan Ferguson’s pitch has been given many awards over the last few years but this is the first time he, his team and his pitch have picked up back to back awards.

Ferguson: “We're obviously thrilled that the pitch has come out on top again and it's testimony to all the hard work the team has put in through the year, we've had a lot of matches to deal with this year and how often the pitch is used is considered when the marks are handed out.

“It's the first time we have won the award in successive years as well so we have to be delighted with that achievement.”
