An Ipswich drummer is delighted he can keep bringing the noise after one of Town's stars bought him a replacement drum.

Ipswich Town defender Harry Clarke brought a drum for Nathan Parris, an Ipswich Town fan, after the instrument broke during the club's victory against Port Vale.

After an exchange on Twitter between the two, the star bought Mr Parris a new Tom Drum, which arrived the Friday before Ipswich's League One clash away at Peterborough United.

The player also signed the instrument after the 3-0 victory at the weekend, but it also turned out the club had also bought Mr Parris a new drum.

Mr Parris said: "Thanks to the club and Marcus Nash because apparently, they were getting so many emails coming in from fans saying 'are you able to get a drum sorted'.

"I will soon have two brand new drums, one I have currently and another is on its way which I am delighted about.

"It is a great thing and adds to the atmosphere so I am very grateful to the club and Harry Clarke."
