Bidding slow for Blues memorabilia

A collection of Ipswich Town memorabilia has failed to fetch its expected price at auction.

The mementoes and programmes were expected to fetch up to £6,000 in the specialist auction at Sotheby's in London.

The items were released by John Eastwood who co-wrote the official history of Ipswich Town.

He said he had found the auction a bit disappointing.
