Ipswich Town fans have given their reaction to the takeover of the club by US consortium Gamechanger 20 Ltd.
The deal was announced this morning after year long talks finally ended in an agreement for Evans to sell the club to the investors from the States.
The deal has left long-suffering Town fans jubilant, especially with news that the new owners were determined to restore the club to it's former glory, with pledges to invest in the playing side of the team and the academy.
Karl Fuller, columnist and fan of the club for 42 years, said the deal brought some good news for the fans.

Joe Fairs, of the Blue Monday podcast, said his overall feeling was one of relief that the deal had been completed, and was hopeful the club could finally start moving forward.
