Ipswich Town are up to second in League One after a comprehensive 4-0 victory over Wycombe Wanderers at Portman Road, the Blues’ eighth league win in a row equalling a club record previously achieved in the 1953/54 Third Division South title-winning season. George Hirst and Conor Chaplin set Town on their way with goals in the first half before Wes Burns and a Freddie Ladapo penalty sealed the three points in the second as the Blues kept their ninth clean sheet in a row and went ahead of Sheffield Wednesday, who again dropped points.
Town dropped to second in the League One table following a 1-0 defeat to Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park, the Chairboys’ first ever victory over the Blues. Brandon Hanlon skipped his way into the area before slotting into the net five minutes before half-time with Town dominating the second half but rarely looking like finding an equaliser against a determined Wycombe side.
