That contrast matters for Ipswich Town U21. The Young Blues play theirs at the Academy Stadium on Playford Road, which holds 1,000. What the smaller ground has produced, though, carries further than its capacity suggests. Mick Mills and Terry Butcher came through the same production line decades apart.
The FA Youth Cup is where the age group's history is kept: won in 1972–73, again two years later, then not until 2004–05. League form has come in shorter bursts. The Professional Development League South Division was won in 2018–19 and again in 2021–22.
