Ipswich Town midfielder Alan Judge has broken his silence on the incident that happened between him and referee Darren Drysdale during a recent League One game.

The incident happened during the clash between Ipswich Town and Northampton Town in League One on Tuesday night where referee Darren Drysdale appeared to square up to Alan Judge.

Judge was claiming a penalty after going down in the Northampton box in the 90th minute but the Irish man’s appeal was met with what looked like an aggressive reaction from Drysdale.

The game finished 0-0 with Ipswich manager Paul Lambert saying: “It should have been a penalty on Judgey at the end but it is a results business,

“The aftermath of that incident needs to be looked at.”
