Ipswich's most famous fan and one of the club's investors is renowned British singer Ed Sheeran. In celebration of Ipswich's return to the Premier League, the league invited Sheeran to create a special video. In the video, Sheeran drives a tractor and sings a fan chant. The tractor symbolizes Ipswich's nickname, "The Tractor Boys."
