Not for the first time, the international break may have come at the wrong time for Albion as our 4-1 crushing of Leeds at the Hawthorns was followed by a fortnight off. However, we could hardly ask for a kinder return to action, as Friday night sees us venture to Portman Road to play bottom side Ipswich for the first time since they dumped RDM's Baggies out of one of our most promising cup runs of the modern age.

Of course, as we know from the trip up to Hull at the beginning of the month, what look like easy wins on paper can prove a nightmare in reality, especially for a team as weak on the road as Albion. However, if Big Dave can stick with the system that worked so well against Leeds, and if we can seize control of the game against Paul Lambert's men, there's no reason we shouldn't be hunting for three points here.
