One game down, forty-five to go as far as the 24 teams in the Championship is concerned, but what did the opening weekend of fixtures tell us? Many regard Doncaster’s 1-0 win at Derby as the performance of the weekend, but that’s only working on the assumption that Rovers were playing League One football last term, while their opponents were in the top flight.

It’s clear that the Pilgrims need new reinforcements after Paul Wotton, Lilian Nalis and Peter Halmosi all left the club this summer. Many fans expect next season to be a tough one at Home Park, especially with Ebanks-Blake no longer around to bang in the goals, as he did during the first part of last season.

Plymouth Argyle winger Peter Halmosi has been a long-term target of Premier League new boys Hull City, with Tigers manager Phil Brown admitting his interest publically last week.
Brown was met with semi-positive responses from Pilgrims manager Paul Sturrock:
We’re trying to keep our best players, but like everything they’ve all got prices and at the end of the day Peter’s got a price like anyone else.
However, Hull now look to have a battle on their hands, with promotion-gunning Sheffield United entering the race, with Blades gaffer Kevin Blackwell stating:
He is a good player and as such I am always interested in good players. In that regard, then, he would be in a list of good players I would be interested in.
It is thought that the two clubs will now battle it out for the £3million-rated Hungarian’s signature.
Halmosi has not gone public with any comments and it remains to be seen if the 28-year-old would prefer a Premiership relegation battle at the Kc Stadium or a Championship promtion race at Bramall Lane. Thoughts?

The king is dead, long live the King. So said the French in the 15th century (the wonders of Wikipedia know no bounds) as they discussed the replacement of Ian Holloway with Paul Sturrock at Plymouth Argyle.
Paul Sturrock? ‘Didn’t he used to be the manager of Plymouth, the most successful in their history?’ we hear you say (you know your lower-league West Country football). Well, yes he did, two championships and the beginning the ascent Argyle have been making since finding themselves in the basement division in 2001. So why come back? According to thisiswiltshire.co.uk he will be leaving Swindon for Plymouth because…
Plymouth have upped their interest in Sturrock since senior players met chairman Paul Stapleton late last week and discussed his return.
It is understood Paul Connolly, Lee Hodges, midfielder David Norris and club captain Paul Wotton gave their approval for the Scot, who managed them in his first spell.
Returning to the club, like getting back into a comfy old sofa, might sound nice for the players. But will this old pals’ act prove a winner, or is it always the case that YOU SHOULD NEVER GO BACK?
