Town captain Jason De Vos says he wants to be the only Town player to speak to referees during games, in line with a possible new FA Rule. Last week the FA announced plans to test the idea of only allowing a club captain to speak to referees during games and De Vos fully backs that plan.

De Vos: There have been suggestions that only the captain speaks to the referee and I fully endorse that.

"I encourage that at Ipswich. I tell all our guys don't speak to the referee it will only aggravate the situation.

"I have never seen a referee change a decision when players argue with him.

"Referees are human and players at all clubs are guilty of behaving pretty appallingly to referees and human beings remember that sort of behaviour.

"If you are nasty to a referee and you later mis-time a tackle then he is not going to give you the benefit of the doubt, he will remember what you said to him earlier."
