Ipswich already looking to the future after relegation
Ipswich's staggering rise to the top is now on the descent the club itself has been braced for.
Successive promotions from League One to the Premier League ended their 22-year exile from the top flight last summer, but they have been unable to stave off an immediate return to the Championship.
The Tractor Boys' fate was sealed on Saturday afternoon by Champions League-chasing Newcastle, who capitalised on Ben Johnson's first-half red card to secure a comfortable 3-0 victory.
Ipswich's relegation is not a huge surprise, even within Portman Road.
