play-off 2000
As the 1999/2000 Division One season came to a close, long-suffering Ipswich fans prepared themselves for their team's fourth consecutive appearance in the play-offs. Further heartbreak seemed on the cards as their semi-final opponents Bolton raced into a 2-0 lead in the first leg, but the tie was level by the final whistle. High drama followed in the return match with Ipswich snatching a last-minute equaliser to take the tie into extra-time - which they duly won. The Wembley final saw Ipswich's nerves jangling yet again with Barnsley taking an early lead, but class ultimately told as the Suffolk side ran out 4-2 winners. All the action from the three games is captured here.
