1978 FA Cup winnersYou are in: Suffolk > History > 1978 FA Cup winners > Ipswich Town scrapbook Sarah's ITFC scrapbook Ipswich Town scrapbookBy Sarah Springett May 6 1978 was a special day for local football, and one which will be remembered for years to come. Sarah Springett was 13 years old when Ipswich clinched FA Cup victory, and she developed a special scrapbook to record her memories. I can remember that everyone was very excited that ITFC had got to the FA cup final.Ìý Leading up to the match there was a lot of publicity and articles in the local newspapers, hence my reason for making a scrapbook.ÌýEveryone was euphoric when we eventually won.Ìý The next day on the Sunday, a civic reception and welcome was held in Ipswich on the Cornhill in front of the town hall. I was amongst the supporters on that day to welcome our winning team back to Ipswich.Ìý The team travelled around the streets of Ipswich in an open top bus, and there were huge cheers when the bus arrived on the Cornhill.Ìý The proper photos in my album were taken by my then biology teacher at school who allowed us to purchase them.ÌýWho would have thought that 30 years on my scrapbook would still be of interest to people? The current ITFC Chairman David Sheepshanks has signed the front of it. last updated: 20/05/2008 at 10:55 SEE ALSOYou are in: Suffolk > History > 1978 FA Cup winners > Ipswich Town scrapbook
