Ipswich, unlike the rural beauty of Suffolk that surrounds it, has never been seen as much of a destination. The former industrial town has lost its way, searching for its post-manufacturing identity. But with every down-turn there is an opportunity. We meet some of the people here, who are determined to change the narrative around the town. Meanwhile the football club is starting to flex its new financial power on the pitch.

For every football club, there is a place and a community. Ipswich Town FC and Ipswich the Town have been neighbours for a long time. The club is undoubtedly the biggest export here and dominates the discourse. But is there more to one of the oldest towns in England than meets the eye? And could a sharing of the spotlight from the club help the town, in need of its own revival?

Who owns our football clubs has never been more critical. A good owner can send a club soaring, whilst a bad one can push it to the brink of collapse. After 14 troubled years, Ipswich Town have new owners and a renewed sense of optimism circles around Suffolk. But who are the people now in charge down at Portman Road? And why did they choose us? With the help of some expert voices, we dive into the murky world of football club ownership and explore who owns our football clubs and why.

Ipswich Town Football Club is a storied, much-loved institution. But a lack of investment, ambition and a whole lot of disconnection had rendered the club a tired, underperforming mess. Suddenly, thanks to a change of ownership and approach, the club is flying again. But what impact is this having off the pitch, in the town the club represents. For the first series of Rolling with the Punches, we’re in Ipswich to ask what is the true value of a football club to its local community?
