Formed on 16 October, 1878, Ipswich Town remained staunchly amateur for the first 58 years of their existence. Most of their players in those early days were drawn from Ipswich Public School. In 1880 the club merged with Ipswich RUFC and took up residence at Portman Road, which had been the rugby club's ground. The club's first president was Thomas Clement Cobbold, the Tory MP for Ipswich and a member of the famous brewing family. Although Thomas died in 1883, the family has remained associated with the club right up to the present.
