By Total Football News

“It has been frustrating,” says Howells. “The highs are really good. When things click, we are unstoppable like against City.

Tottenham Hotspur 1-2 Ipswich Town: Tractor Boys earn first win of season at Spurs

By Total Football News

Before Sunday’s game, Ipswich had led for a league-low 86 minutes this season, despite opening the scoring in five of their 10 league games.

A lively start saw
