Scroll down to see what the inspiration for the kit was
IPSWICH fans have been left divided as the club debuted its Ed Sheeran collaboration third kit – but it certainly brought them luck anyway.
Before the season began, Town announced they would have a special third kit for the season designed with musician and Tractor Boys superfan Sheeran.

The kit finally saw the light of day as Ipswich paid a visit to Tottenham in the Premier League, with Sheeran in attendance in North London.
However, the pink colour scheme inspired by “Suffolk Pink” left fans divided.
Taking to social media, one fan said: “Ed Sheeran disasterclass.”
A second said: “[It] Hurts my eyes.”
Another said: “That Ipswich kit is so clean.”
A fourth added: “That Ipswich kit is gorgeous.”
A club statement when the kit was revealed in the summer said: “Inspired by ‘Suffolk Pink’, representing the iconic cottages scattered across the county, the new shirt features the silhouette of Framlingham Castle, made famous by Ed’s track ‘Castle on Hill’.
“The Wolsey Gate, which inspired the turrets at the top of the Town crest, is also included in the design.
“Ed Sheeran x Ipswich Town’ appears inside the neck whilst an Ipswich Town heart motif takes its place on the back of the shirt.
“Soundwaves created from the cheer of the crowd as players run out of the tunnel also appear on the front of the shirt, along with a representation of the 60 miles of Suffolk coastline, running from Felixstowe to Lowestoft.”
Before the Spurs game, Kieran McKenna’s side were winless in the Premier League, having racked up five wins and five defeats from the opening ten games.
Two of those draws had come away from home.
However, they might be wishing to wear the kit more often in the future, as they earned their first win of the season with a 2-1 win over Tottenham – which was their first Premier League victory in 22 years.
Goals from Sammie Szmodics and Liam Delap before half-time gave Ipswich something to hold on to, which they managed to despite Rodrigo Bentancur pulling one back for the hosts.
Boss Kieran McKenna said of Sheeran and the kit afterwards: “It was nice to see him. He congratulated the boys.
“We had his designed kit on today – so maybe it brought us a little bit of luck.
“Everybody knows he has been an important part of the club in the last few years with the support he gives us. Nice for him to be here.”
