Norwich 0-0 West Ham
Arsenal 6-1 Southampton
Fulham 3-0 West Brom
Man Utd 4-0 Wigan
QPR 0-0 Chelsea

Bolton 2-1 Watford
Brighton 3-0 Sheffield Wednesday
Bristol City 3-5 Blackburn
Cardiff 2-1 Leeds
Huddersfield 1-0 Derby
Hull 4-1 Millwall
Middlesbrough 2-0 Ipswich

Bournemouth 1-1 Hartlepool
Leyton Orient 1-0 Brentford
MK Dons 1-0 Yeovil
Portsmouth 1-2 Walsall

Aldershot 0-0 Morecambe
Burton Albion 4-0 Oxford
D&R 1-1 Accrington
Exeter 1-1 York
Gillingham 4-0 Bristol Rovers
Plymouth 1-3 Port Vale

St Johnstone 2-1 Celtic
St Mirren 2-0 Hearts

East Stirling 3-1 Stirling

So another week, and another round of fixtures. East Stirling recorded an emphatic 3-1 win against Stirling to register their first points of the season, and leave the ever-shrinking no wins club into the bargain. At the other end of the table, a 0-0 draw between Chelsea and QPR sees Chelsea lose the only 100% record in the league.

In the Championship, a last-gasp 5-3 win for Blackburn against Bristol City sees them top the Championship table, and show that Blackburn are the team to follow if you want goals, with 14 goals in their last two matches. Arsenal also hit goalscoring form this week, hitting six past a flailing Southampton.

Derby-wise, jbom's Norwich were unlucky to only draw 0-0 with GU's West Ham, with a similar result between mps247's Chelsea and al's QPR. Down in League 1 tractakid's Franchise FC sneaked a 1-0 win against Sam and Matt's Yeovil; far from the drubbing that Matt predicted that Yeovil would get in midweek!

In League 2, an emphatic 4-0 win for Gillingham sees them extend their unbeaten run and consolidate their lead at the top of the table. It would seem that even this early into the season, only a fool would bet against the Kent side lining up in League 1 this time next season.

I'll leave Neil to update the 'full' table, but the updated Derbies table can be found HERE

Just returned on the 320 miles round trip from Exeter to see a very lack-luster display and we fortunate to get a 1-1

Colour me foolish then, as 5 out of our six games have been against sides in the lower reaches of the table. After this week, playing Southend on Tuesday and away at Vale on Saturday we should have a better idea of where we stand.

Well, seems a lifetime ago since Yeovil were riding high at the top of the league. Tonight they suffered their 6th straight defeat in a row... :( :( :( :(

I've just done a quick mid-week update, and I discovered that a few of the numbers were wrong, so they've been adjusted. So if your team has gone down then that's where they SHOULD be.

Well now that Kean has gone from Blackburn, maybe Sam will turn her attention to getting rid of the useless sack of shit in charge of Yeovil.

(Note - I have no idea what I'm talking about, so feel free to ignore the above.)

But Yeovil aren't that shit, because it's QPR who are bottom of the league :(
We usually start well and sink like a stone as the season progresses, but this season we're obviously trying something different :?

What, start at the bottom and finish at the bottom?
