The Remarkable Rise of Ipswich Town
Ipswich Town finished 11th in League One in the 2021-22 season, the club's joint lowest league finish in over 60 years, whilst getting knocked out of the FA Cup, EFL Cup, and EFL Trophy by Barrow, Newport County, and Arsenal's under-21s.
It felt like an all time low, but just two years on, Ipswich have won promotion to the Premier League, defying all the odds to beat Leeds and Southampton to automatic promotion in the Championship.
In this video, HITC Sevens charts Ipswich's remarkable rise over such a short period of time, the people who have masterminded their success, and what to expect from the Tractor Boys in the Premier League.

    Otro Anglosajón que no se entera de la película. Vini Jr, Fede Valverde, Rodrigo, Carlos H. Casemiro, Carvajal, Nacho, Lucas Vázquez...ODEGAARD, all these players came from the young team "Real Madrid Castilla" on 2onB division. More years before Raúl, Hierro, Casillas, Guti, Butragueño, Pirri..... etc etc etc. Please don´t make a video with mistakes about "la Fábrica". It's better that you watch NFL or NBA because you don't know NOTHING about Real Madrid's History or spanish football.

    It is crazy how fast Ipswich Town turned up. No one expected them to get promoted from the Championship especially with how strong the Division is this season. I think they will do just fine in the Premier League if they get some good summer signings. They just have to be careful about other Premier League teams poaching their players.

    I think what makes the Premier league so huge is the fact that in the mid/late 90s they started televising around the world even in the smallest of countries and third world countries. I grew up watching English Premier League in South Africa. So the following was installed in us and even now most would rather watch EPL over any other league due to the rivalry and tribalism that was created over the years.

Here are the reasons: 1) EPL teams have to have overrated English players while other teams don't have to have any. 2) The weather 3) Anybody who watches football on tv which all players do, dislikes the arrogance and attitude of the English 4) Even the English would rather live in Spain.
