Ipswich Town have been relegated from the Premier League after Saturday’s 3-0 defeat to Newcastle United.
The result left Kieran McKenna’s side 15 points behind 17th-place West Ham United with four games remaining.
Ipswich are the third and final team to be relegated from the Premier League this season following Southampton and Leicester City. It means, for the first time in Premier League history, all three newly-promoted teams have been relegated from the English top flight for a second successive season. Sheffield United, Burnley and Luton Town all dropped back into the Championship in 2023-24.

Ipswich were promoted to the Premier League last season after finishing second in the Championship, their second promotion in successive years, ending the club’s 22-year absence from the top flight.
However, they have recorded only four victories from 34 league games this term and taken just 21 points.
Following last season’s promotion, McKenna’s position at Ipswich was the source of speculation; he was considered a frontrunner for the Chelsea job and was linked to roles at Brighton & Hove Albion and Manchester United. The 38-year-old ultimately committed his future to Ipswich and signed a new four-year deal in May.
Ipswich were the Premier League’s seventh-highest spenders in the summer of 2024 with an outlay of £106m, and had the top flight’s second-highest net spend of £104m as they attempted to turn a squad largely assembled in League One into one capable of competing in the Premier League.
However, the Suffolk side were the last team in the Premier League to win a game this season, taking until November 10 against Tottenham Hotspur to get off the mark, while December’s 2-0 victory over Chelsea is the club’s only home league victory.
They have dropped 27 points from winning positions over the course of the campaign — the most in the top flight — and Ben Johnson’s red card during the weekend’s loss to Newcastle was their fifth of the season, the joint most in the Premier League alongside Arsenal.
Ipswich’s hopes of staying in the division were significantly dented after being beaten by Southampton at home in February, in what was Ivan Juric’s only win as Southampton head coach, and April’s loss to relegation rivals Wolves all but sealed their fate.

Rizek elege time “convertido” em Barcelona no Brasileirão: “Bom pra caramba”
André Rizek, apresentador do SporTV (Reprodução) André Rizek, após o final do primeiro tempo de Flamengo x Corinthians, não aliviou para o Timão. Atropelado no Maracanã, o clube alvinegro sofreu três gols e, segundo o apresentador, fez o Rubro-Negro “emular” o Barcelona no Maracanã. Isso porque o nível dos comandados de Filipe Luís, bastante elevado dentro de um contexto normal, ficou ainda maior com o amplo domínio em campo. “O time do Flamengo já é bom pra caramba. Aí vem o Corinthians, com esse primeiro tempo pífio, e faz parecer o Barcelona do Messi.”, escreveu Rizek, na plataforma X.

Rapsfeld ist letzte Chance – Meister Leverkusen droht Lizenz-Entzug!

Ein Gebäude für den Großteil der aktuell 450 festen Mitarbeiter. Der kleine Wald in der Mitte würde bestehen bleiben, von einem eigenen Förster bewirtschaftet und von einer Jogging-Strecke umrandet. Mindestens 120 Millionen Euro teuer ist das Vereins-Zentrum, das ohne öffentliche Gelder finanziert wird. Das ist der Plan. Und der muss schnell umgesetzt werden.Der Lizenz-Entzug droht!

Shedeur Sanders prank call: Falcons DC Jeff Ulbrich’s son at center of stunt pulled during NFL Draft
Getty Images Shedeur Sanders' slide in the 2025 NFL Draft included a prank call from someone pretending to be an NFL general manager. That led to the league launching an investigation into the matter, and the source has been found. On Sunday, the Atlanta Falcons released a statement acknowledging Jax Ulbrich, the son of defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, and his involvement in the prank calls.
