Last updated : 31 August 2002 By
Ipswich defender Hermann Hreidarsson has rejected a move to West Brom for the second time, after Albion moved back in for him on Friday. Megson has already broke the Transfer record twice this week with the signings of Tranmere midfielder Jason Koumas and Coventry striker Lee Hughes for a combined £4.75m.

Hermann felt that one one the reason he decided not to come to the club was because he thinks Ipswich will make an instant return to the Premiership.
Hreidarsson said: "I still think Ipswich can win promotion back to the Premiership. The club and fans have been brilliant to me and my family are very settled."

New signings Lee Hughes and Jason Koumas are expected to go straight into the first team today and make thier debuts. Koumas is expected to replace the suspended Derek McInnes ang Hughes will partner Jason Roberts upfront.
