Town have announced there will be a minutes silence and a prayer just before kick-off of Town’s game against Leeds on Saturday.

The Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich will say a prayer for the 5 woman who have been killed in Ipswich over the last few weeks.

 

Leaflets will also be distributed around the ground requesting information that may help police with their enquiries.

 

Town Chairman David Sheepshanks: “This has been a perfectly miserable and ghastly week for the people of Ipswich and Suffolk as a whole.

 

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims' families and friends. Major rewards are being offered for information leading to the conviction of the culprit/s which we can only use our best efforts to support.

 

“It is most appropriate that we pause to reflect on the heinous events of the last two weeks before the Leeds game and the Club will welcome the Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich, the Rt. Reverend Richard Lewis, who will say a prayer preceding a minute's silence before kick-off.”

 

Leaflets will be distributed around the ground asking for people with any information about the killings to come forward.
