Ipswich Town like a ‘religion’ for Norwegian supporters club

Jan Frode Antonsen, 56, has supported the club for 50 years and is also over in Ipswich this week.

“This is my third trip and fourth match now this season, I just love it,” he said.

“It’s like a religion, it means a lot for me.

“When Ipswich wins the weeks, the days are a lot better for me and I wake up every day with a smile, it makes me very happy.”

This is his first time over in the UK with the supporters club which is said has been “really fun”.

The fan, who has a whole room in his house dedicated to Ipswich Town, still remembers the moment he decided to become a fan.

A young Mr Antonsen asked former captain of Manchester United Lou Macari for an autograph when he was once over in Norway.

However he was refused.

“I decided I will never support Manchester United and I will never support a red team,” he joked.

Like the other supporters he has high hopes for promotion.

“I would love it, I have a lot of friends who support Manchester, Liverpool, Arsenal and nobody thought that Ipswich would be top of the Championship,” he added.
