Opened 1884
Portman Road has been Ipswich Town's home since 1884, making it one of the longest-serving club grounds in England, and it was expanded following the club's return to the top flight to bring capacity close to 30,000. Located in the centre of Ipswich just a short walk from the railway station, the ground's redeveloped North Stand and Cobbold Stand provide a compact and vocal atmosphere. The stadium holds particular historical significance as the setting for Ipswich's 1981 UEFA Cup triumph under Bobby Robson.
