    They are based in an area of town called St James..... like the manly, male, hard rugby version of St Mary’s.... the girly, feminine, soft version.

    I am looking forward to seeing the Leeds v Fulham game later.
    With Brentford beating WBA, yesterday, and Fulham last weekend the top of the table is getting interesting.
    A Fulham win today will have 5 points covering the top 4, and with Brentford returning to football with a maximum 6 points, anything could happen.
    This is why I was so against WBA and Leeds being given automatic promotion, during the shutdown.

    My only hope for a happy season is if Leeds don’t get promoted

    Wow. Check out the bottom of the Championship. Unbelievable how tight it is. Those bottom dwellers will not give up!

    Stoke are in real trouble now. The biggest losers today. But Brum's late goal against Hull has eased their pain. Still very tight.

    Neil Warnock doing what Neil Warnock does.

    Killer late goal for Hull to concede.

    He's been saying that for ages hasn't he? I reckon he'll die while in charge of a club. Probably while giving the ref an earful.

    Has there been a better second tier manager in that time? Can't think of one.

    He'll be living out of a suitcase in a hotel while his mrs stays in the West Country. No way he's getting her to move up there. Take the money and run Neil. Unless he enjoys the peace and quiet!

    I think Steve Bruce has one more promotion to the PL (although Warnock can equal him in you include pre-PL top flight promotions). And from fewer seasons managing in the division.

    However, Bruce can't also throw in the record which Warnock has at the other end of the division too. So Warnock wins out for me.

    Tony Mowbray was also a good championship manager.

    I think red is fair enough, a bit like Stephens for us if it's a foul it's a red

    Extra time is just what Norwich didn’t need, especially a man down.
