Ipswich say goodbye to the Premier League - for how long?
Ipswich Town claimed just four wins in the league this season, and only one at home.

One Ipswich fan could be seen with "We'll be back" on the back of his shirt before the 3-1 loss to West Ham.
The words "I hope" were also printed underneath the figure 26, reflecting the optimism of football fans but also how chastening an experience their return to the Premier League has been.
They won just four in the league all season, with their solitary home success, a 2-0 win over Chelsea on 30 December, also the last time they kept a clean sheet.
Striker Liam Delap provided a bright spot in a dark and difficult season for Kieran McKenna's side, bagging 12 goals but having proved he can cut it in the top flight after his £20m move from Man City, he has been given permission to talk to other clubs.
The Championship is a notoriously tough division, and Ipswich have a huge task on their hands if they are be in the mix for a return to the top flight in 12 months' time.
