Joe Royle has called on Town fans to make Portman Road a 'cauldron of noise' ahead of the Play-Off clash with West Ham on Wednesday night.

The game is a total sell-out with all 30,000 tickets snapped up my Monday afternoon and the Town boss is adamant the Blue Army can play their part in helping the Club reach the Play-Off Final.

"There's something special about playing under the floodlights and that will add to the occasion I'm sure," Joe told the Club website.

"I loved it as a player in evening games. They are extra special and the atmosphere is always that much more intense. I'm not sure that there's a scientific reason for it but evening games always seem to create those special atmospheres.

"And the crowd can certainly play a massive part for us on Wednesday night and help bring the best out of the players.

"There have been times this season when they've really got behind us vocally and we've gone on to do well and we'll be looking for more of that against West Ham.

"Let's do to them what they did to us last year, they made it quite hostile for us down there and I'm looking for all Tractor Boys and Girls to get right behind the team and make it a real cauldron of noise."

Supporters are advised to get to the game early to avoid hold-ups with the gates opening at 6.30pm.
