Ipswich have been relegated from the Premier League following a 3-0 defeat to Newcastle on Saturday.
The result, their 21st league defeat of the season, means the Tractor Boys remain in 18th place and 15 points away from safety with only four games to go.
The club follow Leicester and Southampton back to the Championship after lasting just one season in the top flight.
Ipswich travelled to Newcastle needing a win and 17th-placed West Ham to suffer defeat at Brighton.
West Ham were beaten 3-2 late on by the Seagulls, but Ipswich fell short at St James’ Park with 10 men after Ben Johnson was sent off in the first half.
Ipswich’s fairytale rise to the Premier League had captured the hearts of football romantics after their successive promotions from League One and the Championship.
Head coach Kieran McKenna, 38, had earned plaudits for Ipswich’s attacking style during their surge up the divisions after his appointment in 2021.
But the former Manchester United assistant coach was unable to preserve Ipswich’s top-flight status.
“We’ve been through it the last few weeks, we knew it was pretty likely. At the end, we have fallen short, but it’s not for lack of effort,” McKenna said.
