Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Despite the efforts of Ray Harford to play down West Bromwich Albion's early success in the First Division, a fourth successive win at Ipswich today would represent their best start in 50 years. History is against Albion, who have won once in 14 visits to Portman Road.
Wolves take on Bury, the self-styled "new Wimbledon", at their bogey ground - Molineux. A draw and a defeat have maintained last season's sorry pattern. With Keith Curle the latest injury doubt, Mark McGhee may be down to 11 fit men.
No such problems for Nottingham Forest, who could afford to rest key players against Doncaster in midweek. Queen's Park Rangers challenge Forest's 100 per cent record having failed to win there in 18 attempts.
Sir Stanley Matthews will officially open Stoke's 28,000-seat, pounds 14.7m Britannia Stadium against Swindon, while neighbouring Crewe and Port Vale tangle tomorrow in a battle of wits between the League's longest-serving managers, Dario Gradi and John Rudge.
Rudge, in charge of Vale for 13 years, wondered yesterday what might have happened had he accepted Tony Waddington's offer to become his player- coach at Crewe.
Gradi, better known for selling players during his 14 years at Gresty Road, yesterday signed defenders Julian Watts on loan from Leicester and Marcus Bignot from Kidderminster for pounds 100,000.
