30.08.1992 A spectacular goal by Jason Cundy (his only strike for the club) earned Spurs a draw on their visit to Portman Road.

With all eyes on debutant Teddy Sheringham, Cundy stole the limelight when, with half an hour gone, he challenged for the ball on the half-way line and his contact lofted into the air and over Craig Forrest in the Ipswich goal some 50 yards away !! 

John Wark equalised with a goal when he looked offside to share the spoils and take Spurs off the bottom of the table.

21.12.1985 Ipswich came to White Hart Lane one place off the bottom and left in a worse position after a 2-0 Spurs win.

Clive Allen's 20th minute opener came from a cute Hoddle pass that opened space for the prolific scorer to lob over Cooper's head.  Hoddle headed home a second shortly after, going in low to convert Falco's header down from a cross by Chris Waddle.

10.04.1982 Spurs had been on the end of a good kicking from Barcelona in midweek and Ipswich were sitting second in the League, so it was a surprise that Spurs won this one at White Hart Lane.  Clemence saved a John Wark penalty to give Spurs confidence to go on to take the points with a shot from Glenn Hoddle with just nine minutes remaining.

03.04.1972 This First Division meeting at Portman Road ended in an Easter Monday win for the Suffolk side.

The score was 0-0 at half-time, but Spurs had lost John Pratt with a serious nose injury during that 45 minutes.  Into the second half, Tony Want put the ball past Jennings to give the home side the advantage, but Martin Chivers took a chance soon after to bring the scores level at 1-1.  However, turning in a good performance, Ipswich grabbed a deserved winner late on through striker Rod Belfitt.

02.10.1971 Spurs had to come from a goal behind to take both points in this Division 1 game at White Hart Lane.

Ian Collard had shocked the Tottenham fans by putting the Blues into the lead with an early goal that saw them turn around ahead.  In the second period, Spurs started to gain the ascendancy and when Martin Chivers steered home the equaliser, it looked as though Ipswich would crumble under the pressure.  Tottenham eventually gained the winner when Martin Peters scored from a Cyril Knowles free-kick to secure the victory.

14.03.1962 Alf Ramsey's return to White Hart Lane as manager of second place Ipswich Town could not have gone better for him.  His team's organisation was the key and striker Ray Crawford gave the visitors an early lead, but Jimmy Greaves got Spurs an equaliser just before the break.

21.10.1961 The demand to see this match between the current champions and the team who were currently top of the table meant that the gates had to be closed before the kick-off with a record crowd already inside.

Cliff Jones' two goals had put Spurs into a half-time lead, with Ted Phillips netting one for the home side.  The game was turned in Ipswich's favour by two Ray Crawford goals in three second half minutes.  With Spurs pressing on the Town goal, the home side managed to hold out for both points.
