Ed Sheeran to No Longer Feature on Ipswich Town Kits
After four seasons as Ipswich Town's shirt sponsor, Ed Sheeran will become a shareholder and will no longer appear on the front of the Ipswich shirt.
“Ed Sheeran has been an incredible sponsor a part of our huge shirt sales, which will probably break 100,000 this year - we thank him so much for that." said Ashton.
Ipswich Town said they would not put a gambling company on the front of their shirts because it did not fit with the club's values and culture, with Ashton also saying: "Ed Sheeran shirt sponsor replacement lined up"
