Dear Mick McCarthy, Marcus Evans and Ipswich Town Football Club

We, the undersigned, ask demand that you offer Paul Anderson a new contract at Ipswich Town Football Club next season, inclusive of agreeable terms for the player. Anderson is one of five players out of contract this summer, and as yet there has been no agreement reached for the renewal of his contract. The Club MUST do everything it can to retain him.

Here are just some reasons for renewing Anderson's contract:

1) During the 2014/15 season, Paul Anderson achieved 7 assists. More than any other Ipswich Town player.

2) Paul Anderson enjoys an excellent relationship with the fans, making him one of a number of players who have re-connected Ipswich Town supporters with the team after years in the wilderness.

3) During the play-off semi-final against Norwich, Paul Anderson scored the equaliser at Portman Road, meaning that it was all to play for in the second leg.

4) One of the main criticisms of Ipswich Town this season has been a lack of width. Anderson is one of very few players at the club capable of genuinely offering that.

5) Anderson is a versatile player. When called upon this season, he has dutifully filled in at right-midfield, left-midfield, winger and full back. No doubt he'd be willing to try his hand at other positions if required.

6) He is a passionate player who is vocal about his love of The Club. This is rare in modern football.

Please, Ipswich Town, do not let Paul Anderson leave yet!

Ando's done really well considering he's been in and out of the team, come off the bench, played in a range of positions which are not his best. He's a real team player who has more quality than we have seen this season - well worth hanging on to.

Cant understand why he wasn't played more this season, was our leading assist maker all season. Should be offered a new contract, just wonder if he will accept a pay cut as do belief he is on more than average players at club

Don't want to undermine Mick and TC but we should do everything we can for a player who has 100% bought into the club, and says that scoring against the 'scum' was the highlight of his career despite not being raised locally. Above all he seems like a nice guy and connects with the Town fans. ITID

Gives 100% on and off the field. Always interacting with the fans, had about 20 favourites on Twitter in the past couple days from him. A player we need. Can score goals. Pace on the wing, and can deliever a good ball.
