Former Ipswich Town midfielder Matt Holland believes if Town fail to get promoted the squad is likely to be broken up.

Holland who left Town in 2003 could have gone in the summer of 2000 if town hadn’t won promotion at Wembley believes that a number of Towns squad will be sold this summer if Town fail to go up.

 

Holland: “In the year we went up there had been talk of Joe Royle being interested in signing me, Arsenal had been linked heavily with Wrighty and there would have been others that clubs would have liked to sign.

 

“This is a big year for Ipswich. If they don't go up, there will be interest in a number of players and the squad could break up. One or two could be sacrificed but they wouldn't need to do that if they get in the Premier League, so it's definitely a big year for the club.

 

“It's been a terrific season for the goalkeeper Kelvin Davis, and there's potential interest in a lot of players.”
