Mellor eyes Tractor Boys clash

Mellor underwent a hernia operation at the end of January after suffering with the problem since the end of November.The former Liverpool forward is hopeful of returning to the match-day squad when Ipswich visit at the end of the month."I am ahead of schedule," he told the club's official website. "Obviously it was a bit of a blow to find out it was a double hernia not just a single one."Everything seems to have gone well with surgery so I am out sprinting at the moment and almost there training which I will hopefully do in a few more days."Hopefully I will be back for selection for Ipswich."
