Ah, here you go
"2. Kicking the bucket (January 2, 1965):
It was strictly come skating for goalkeeper Kevin Keelan and the City defence as they went two goals down by half-time at a partly frozen Portman Road. But worse was to follow. The referee asked ground staff to spread salt in the Churchmans end goalmouth, which Town 'keeper Ken Hancock had to defend in the second half, to try to make it less slippery. Incensed City fans ran on to the pitch to stop the salt being spread and kicked the buckets over, but to no avail. Town won the Division Two derby 3-0."
