It is a good time for managers with seemingly no achievements under their belt. Not only if Gary Megson now in charge of Nicolas Anelka, but now the man with the face of a librarian and the voice of Stuart Pearce is back in employment, yep someone loves Glenn Roeder and that someone is Norwich […]

While many people may have been distracted by Arsenal and their showing off at the Emirates, the Championship continued to show itself to be as unpredictable as Rafa Benitez’s substitution policy last night (Zing! An oldie, but a goodie). Charlton were leapfrogged by Plymouth, who beat them 2-1 at The Valley. Sheffield United won for […]

It was back to the rat-race for Championship players at the weekend and they looked more than happy about it; turning in some great performances.

Like the first day back at school after half-term, domestic football returns tomorrow and it doesn’t look too appealing. But wait, don’t run off to MFI to buy that decking for garden just yet, their are some appealing fixtures in the Championship. How about Neil warnock’s first game in charge of Crystal Palace?

Steve Bruce 13-2
It’s too early for Bruce to be interested, he has another couple of months at Birmingham, and surely Paul Jewell will wait for something […]

Peter Grant has left Norwich after a year in charge, as Delia searches high and low for someone to take the canaries back to the Premiership.
Grant wasn’t making excuses for his less than impressive reign though, saying:
“Unfortunately for me, I feel that the balls haven’t bounced the right way for me over the last 12 […]

Warning: none of the following rumours/facts are that interesting in themselves. But put them all together and they create something beautiful, a picture of the Championship on October 5th 2007. So…
High-flying-Bristol City (TM) have confirmed 34-year-old midfielder Alex Russell will be spending a second month on loan at Northampton. Quel surprise.
