Mrs Howarth, who lives in Colchester, has battled conditions such as " Knee Deep mud" in Bracknell to Russian military patrols when Ipswich.

" When we landed, there were armed Russian Guards under the aircraft. There was 1,000 town fans, equally met by 1,000 armed Russian soldiers. They looked bemused as to why they have been drafted in to rally up well-behaved Town fans, " She Said .

She has also seen Town at Inter Milan , Helsingborg and Ajax.
