Ipswich lost their Premiership status that year but Ambrose started brightly in the next season, scoring on his full debut in a 2-0 victory against Walsall. Throughout the campaign he impressed enough to be snapped up by Newcastle United for £1m.
Newcastle United
Ambrose was a success at Newcastle United with 25 appearances for the Magpies in his first season at Newcastle. However, in 2004-05 Ambrose only made 12 Premiership appearances for the Magpies and was sold to Charlton Athletic.
