Town legend Russell Osman and former coach and manager Bobby Ferguson will be signing copies of On a European Journey: With Ipswich Town in Europe 1962-2002 in Planet Blue at Portman Road on Saturday prior to the game against Reading (midday to 1.30pm).

On a European Journey: With Ipswich Town in Europe 1962-2002, which is also available from TWTD, charts the story of Town's exploits in European competition and the fans' journeys to see them play, from Alf Ramsey's champions, through the Bobby Robson UEFA Cup-winning era, to George Burley's Premiership team and the bonus season in Europe under Joe Royle.

The book is written by the brothers David and Philip Houseley who were responsible for organising supporters' trips during the 70s and 80s, including the UEFA Cup win in Amsterdam in May 1981.

The book includes recollections from several fans and media commentators who accompanied the team in Europe, as well as a nostalgic collection of photos, programme covers and newspaper cuttings.

Ferguson has written the foreword for the book, and also gives pen pictures of the key players, as well as an insight into the tactics employed to bring down the great names of European football.

A further book signing is being arranged at The Apex, Bury St Edmunds for Saturday 10th December from 11am until 12.30pm, further details soon.
