:00:15. > :00:20.Evening. It was derby day in the Skybet Football League on Saturday,
:00:20. > :00:24.with six games providing local bragging rights for the winners, not
:00:24. > :00:27.to mention two of the top three squaring up in both the Championship
:00:27. > :00:31.and League Two. Leroy is with me to run the rule over the day's big
:00:31. > :00:35.winners and losers - and here's a taster of what's coming up... Going
:00:35. > :00:38.well in the league but yet to record a win at home this season, Derby
:00:38. > :00:41.County welcomed Reading to Pride Park earlier today. Nigel Adkins'
:00:41. > :00:44.Royals looking to build on a much-needed late win against Leeds
:00:44. > :00:47.in midweek. Millwall turned the Championship on its head on Tuesday
:00:48. > :00:50.with a crucial win over then leaders Blackpool - we have extended
:00:50. > :00:56.highlights of their South London derby at Charlton. With six goals in
:00:56. > :01:02.seven games, have Peterborough unearthed yet another goal-scoring
:01:02. > :01:09.gem in Britt Assambalonga? I'm at London Road for Peterborough's derby
:01:09. > :01:12.against MK Dons. And as ever, we have all the goals and plenty of
:01:12. > :01:14.talking points from another hectic day from all three divisions of the
:01:14. > :01:22.Football League. First to Pride Park then, for a
:01:22. > :01:27.contest involving two sides expected to be in the mix come the end of the
:01:27. > :01:29.season, as Derby took on recently-relegated Reading. Nigel
:01:29. > :01:32.Clough's young team have been particularly impressive on the road,
:01:32. > :01:35.with some big wins, but were looking to break their duck at home at the
:01:35. > :01:38.fourth attempt, with Reading suffering just the one defeat in
:01:38. > :01:49.seven. Commentary from Martin Fisher.
:01:49. > :01:57.Redding have won on four out of their last five visits here. Derby
:01:57. > :02:02.have managed just one point and one goal in front of their own
:02:02. > :02:05.supporters so far this season. Nigel Clough knows that has to change
:02:05. > :02:12.quickly if his team are to Mount a serious promotion challenge. Craig
:02:12. > :02:16.Bryson got three against Millwall, one week ago. Redding make five
:02:16. > :02:40.changes. Reading sitting very deep, as Derby
:02:40. > :02:44.tried to play their way forward. Russell has gone for the return, and
:02:44. > :02:52.he has got the shot away, punched away by McCarthy. It almost fell
:02:52. > :02:56.invitingly for Derby County. Russell, whose confidence should be
:02:56. > :03:02.very high indeed, having scored a brace against Bolton on Tuesday. He
:03:02. > :03:15.got the return pass from Forsyth. It was a smart stop from McCarthy. Five
:03:15. > :03:21.in white in the box. Pogrebnyak clears it, but Ward gets to the
:03:21. > :03:29.loose ball first. Will Hughes with the shot. The latest in a series of
:03:29. > :03:35.loose ball first. Will Hughes with pretty comfortable saves made by the
:03:35. > :03:44.Reading goalkeeper. Will Hughes has got away from Baird, and that is the
:03:44. > :03:50.best save yet from Alex McCarthy! That effort from Hughes brought the
:03:50. > :03:55.best out of him. It was heading for the bottom corner, and it was a
:03:56. > :04:07.marvellous stop. Reading have gone to sleep here... And a chance at the
:04:07. > :04:12.back post, and by his reaction, Adam Smith feels he should have got it on
:04:12. > :04:14.target. From one full-back, very nearly to the other, and very nearly
:04:14. > :04:34.1-0. Grant cannot get there, and it is
:04:34. > :04:43.in! Pogrebnyak has scored, his eight-month drought is over. And
:04:43. > :04:46.Reading go in front just one minute after the restart. From Derby
:04:46. > :04:54.County's point of view, this is a very, very sloppy goal. The kick was
:04:54. > :05:00.deep, and nobody in White responded swiftly enough. Buxton could not
:05:00. > :05:20.keep it out, and the Russian's shot went through the hand of Grant.
:05:20. > :05:30.Nicely done by Baird, and here is McCleary. Pogrebnyak, 2-0! More
:05:30. > :05:37.awful defending by Derby. And didn't you just know it, Pogrebnyak,
:05:37. > :05:45.without a goal for so long, has now scored twice within 15 minutes. It
:05:45. > :05:50.looked as though the danger had gone, but Graveney act was in
:05:50. > :05:59.quickly to make the most of that error by Russell.
:05:59. > :06:08.Smith has lost his man. And arriving is McCleary! That was a very
:06:08. > :06:12.presentable opportunity, which would have put the game beyond Derby
:06:12. > :06:15.County. Garath McCleary applauds the quality of the centre. He will want
:06:15. > :06:50.to forget the quality of his finish. Hughes! And Derby have a goal back.
:06:50. > :06:52.McCarthy, finally beaten, and a Gollum goal out of absolutely
:06:52. > :07:04.nothing from 18-year-old Will Hughes. It dropped somewhat
:07:04. > :07:08.fortuitously for him, and he found just the finish required to bend it
:07:08. > :07:21.beyond Alex McCarthy. Can Reading hang on, or will Derby comeback to
:07:21. > :07:24.complete their recovery? Goalkeeper Grant thought about coming for it
:07:25. > :07:35.and then went home. Blackman is arriving to wrap it up for Reading,
:07:35. > :07:41.and he has! Nick Blackman ensures that Reading stretch their unbeaten
:07:41. > :07:46.run to four games. He made up ground terrifically well here. Derby had
:07:46. > :07:55.pushed plenty of bodies forward. Robson: Was strong, and his Arkley,
:07:55. > :07:56.after an initial touch which seems to be pushing him away from goal,
:07:56. > :08:06.recovered admirably to finish. We played well for the majority of
:08:06. > :08:15.the game today. After they scored We played well for the majority of
:08:15. > :08:20.two goals, a lot of positive elements get lost in the result.
:08:20. > :08:23.Derby are an excellent side. We lost several players through injury. We
:08:23. > :08:28.have had to utilise the squad, some of the young players, and we have
:08:28. > :08:31.come with a game plan and it has worked a treat. Pogrebnyak has
:08:31. > :08:36.scored a couple of goals. What is the problem here? We are conceding
:08:36. > :08:43.soft goals, look at the goals we are scoring at the moment and they are
:08:43. > :08:47.soft goals, look at the goals we are extremely goals. Nobody is giving us
:08:47. > :08:50.anything. They are dealing with the majority of what we are giving them.
:08:50. > :08:56.The troubles continue at Pride Park and there is no denying that Reading
:08:56. > :09:01.have won after what was a commanding second-half performance? It was a
:09:01. > :09:05.good game plan from Reading. They seemed to funnel Derby to where they
:09:05. > :09:08.wanted to go. They did not get into areas where they could really hurt
:09:08. > :09:10.Reading on a regular basis. For Nigel Adkins, the fans that Reading
:09:10. > :09:12.have been asking for a goal-scoring Nigel Adkins, the fans that Reading
:09:12. > :09:17.striker but Nigel will be delighted Nigel Adkins, the fans that Reading
:09:17. > :09:20.to see Pogrebnyak back on the scoresheet since January. He was
:09:20. > :09:24.eventually, in comparison to Derby, more clinical question might
:09:24. > :09:28.Stronger, more powerful, that is what he is, a big striker. He has
:09:28. > :09:32.played at the highest level as well. When the chances fell to him, he was
:09:33. > :09:37.clinical and that was the difference between the two sides. As soon as
:09:37. > :09:41.Reading got their noses in front, you knew it would be difficult for
:09:41. > :09:42.them to get back into the game. Instinctively he gets on to it under
:09:42. > :09:45.pressure and sticks it in the back Instinctively he gets on to it under
:09:46. > :09:51.of the net. What about Derby? We have seen great team goals from them
:09:51. > :09:55.particularly away from home. Is that because they are more effective away
:09:55. > :09:59.from home? Away from home teams are going to come onto them and I think
:09:59. > :10:02.they can then pick people off a lot easier. At home, teams are going to
:10:02. > :10:05.they can then pick people off a lot sit off and allow them to come a
:10:05. > :10:09.certain amount of the way but not where they want to go. Is that why
:10:09. > :10:14.Derby were more reliant on efforts from long range because they lack
:10:14. > :10:18.that penetration? I think Nigel said if they score a goal it has to be a
:10:18. > :10:22.good goal and it when they got into the box they showed the inside where
:10:23. > :10:27.the keeper wanted them to go and he was always set for their attempts
:10:27. > :10:30.from outside the area. It had to be a very good goal and it was a very
:10:30. > :10:35.good goal that the eventually scored but you are not going to score too
:10:35. > :10:38.many in this division. Let's have a look at how the early front runners
:10:38. > :10:43.in the Championship got on starting with the leaders QPR, who travelled
:10:43. > :10:48.to Yeovil. Gary Johnson claimed Joey Barton earned more on his own than
:10:48. > :10:50.the club and management combine. Fortunately games are not decided by
:10:50. > :10:59.payslips, or are they? Harry Redknapp has had some testing
:10:59. > :11:04.trips during his career, this is one he can add to that list. Yeovil went
:11:05. > :11:10.for his side from the off. Joel Grant but Rob Green at full stretch.
:11:10. > :11:13.QPR's wage bill is rumoured to be 50 times bigger than that of the
:11:13. > :11:17.Somerset club, not that you will notice. Liam Davis the next try his
:11:17. > :11:21.luck as Green came up with the goods once more. The former England keeper
:11:21. > :11:24.performed more heroics in the second-half as the home side
:11:24. > :11:30.continued to trouble the Football Leaguemeanest defence. Green refused
:11:30. > :11:35.to be beaten. Yeovil were looking far from a team that have lost five
:11:35. > :11:39.of their previous six matches. Davis defied for a second time. Then the
:11:39. > :11:46.inevitable soccer punch. Charlie Austin, who had been kept in check
:11:46. > :11:50.for long spells, made a beeline for goal and was blocked off. Gavin
:11:50. > :11:53.Ward's decision to give the spot kick up the fans in Robert Austin
:11:53. > :11:57.had its cool -- kept his cool to edge Rangers in front with 15
:11:57. > :12:02.minutes to go. The leaders were on course to stretch their unbeaten run
:12:02. > :12:12.to eight matches but Gary Johnson's men refuse to give up the fight. QPR
:12:12. > :12:15.got their first -- their fifth 1-nil game of the season. We hung in there
:12:15. > :12:19.and defended for our lives. We were not at our best today, that is for
:12:19. > :12:23.and defended for our lives. We were sure, but you have to give credit to
:12:23. > :12:31.Yeovil. They made it a cup tie atmosphere and played like a cup tie
:12:31. > :12:34.and they were unlucky, very unlucky. Adaptability has been the key for
:12:34. > :12:38.Blackpool so far. Such is their lack of numbers Chris Basham says he has
:12:38. > :12:42.played in six different positions this season against Leicester he
:12:42. > :12:47.turned up on the end of Ricardo Fuller's cross. This towering header
:12:47. > :12:51.was enough for a first half lead. The Foxes stepped things up after
:12:51. > :12:56.the break. Jamie Vardy should have put them level from David Nugent's
:12:56. > :13:01.pass but Nugent was no more clinical in front of goal, volleying
:13:01. > :13:05.Knockaert is down and out. Leicester eventually levelled from the penalty
:13:05. > :13:10.spot. Vardy was hauled down by Liverpool loanee Jack Robinson.
:13:10. > :13:13.Konchesky did the business from 12 yards, knocking in the first goal at
:13:13. > :13:18.Blackpool have conceded at home all season. The Tangerines had a 100%
:13:18. > :13:23.record at Bloomfield Road before this game but two minutes later a
:13:23. > :13:30.screamer from Andy King had them on the brink of back-to-back defeats.
:13:30. > :13:32.This calculation from Schmeichel saw Blackpool take a point after he
:13:32. > :13:36.This calculation from Schmeichel saw clattered into Gary MacKenzie Tom
:13:36. > :13:40.Ince combated an injury time penalty which keeps these two sides neck and
:13:40. > :13:46.neck in the early season promotion race. It is always dangerous to
:13:46. > :13:50.neck in the early season promotion think you have done enough. Today,
:13:50. > :13:55.we have had to settle for one point, where I think once we have
:13:55. > :14:01.got ourselves in front and the way we were controlling the game, we
:14:01. > :14:06.should have had all three. Burnley striker Sam Vokes was back
:14:06. > :14:10.on familiar territory, once a Leeds loanee he returned to Elland Road
:14:10. > :14:13.and was soon threatening that United goal. The Clarets impressive winners
:14:13. > :14:17.in the week carried on where they had left off against Birmingham city
:14:17. > :14:22.last time out. Trippier's costs finally found a way to through to
:14:22. > :14:26.Scott Arfield, who at the second attempt made his mark. They held
:14:26. > :14:33.onto that lead despite the best efforts of Leeds and Luke Vardy in
:14:33. > :14:39.particular. Tom Heaton with a smart save. The Clarets' second goal came
:14:39. > :14:46.from Vokes. Paddy Kenny saved the initial header but the striker
:14:46. > :14:51.followed up with maximum effect. United's response saw Michael Tonge
:14:51. > :14:58.go agonisingly close. But Leeds were out of luck. They finally got on the
:14:59. > :15:05.scoresheet when substitute Matt Smith headed home late in
:15:05. > :15:09.proceedings but it wasn't enough. Austin couldn't quite find an
:15:09. > :15:13.equaliser. Frustrating times for the Yorkshire club. Leeds have allowed
:15:13. > :15:18.-- now lost three of their last four league games. Are desperately
:15:18. > :15:25.frustrating week. Really frustrating, I am glad to see the
:15:25. > :15:28.back of it. To lose at Reading and 2-nil down in front of our own fans,
:15:28. > :15:34.we have to keep doing what we have to do. We can't have performances
:15:34. > :15:38.like today. We had to defend in the end, the last 20 minutes. Leeds is a
:15:38. > :15:43.tough place to come. They put the big fellow on, Smith got in their
:15:43. > :15:50.early and scored a goal and it was nervy. We stayed resolute and we
:15:50. > :15:54.make two important saves. Macheda once helped Manchester
:15:54. > :15:56.United rescue the title. Four years after exploding onto the scene he is
:15:56. > :15:58.trying to rescue his career. South after exploding onto the scene he is
:15:58. > :16:03.Yorkshire will be his home for the next month and he is settling in
:16:03. > :16:06.nicely, making his first start he arrived on due to give Doncaster
:16:06. > :16:08.Rovers the lead. Forest weren't fortunate to be training --
:16:08. > :16:15.trailing, but five minutes later fortunate to be training --
:16:15. > :16:20.they were back on terms and Andy Reid teed up Chris Cohen, whose
:16:20. > :16:24.first of the season was a beauty. Forest's results have dipped of
:16:24. > :16:28.late, just one win in four prior to this. Sefton -- seven minutes into
:16:28. > :16:33.the second half, Macheda got his second. The first brace of the
:16:33. > :16:39.striker's career, but the home side were on course for their second win
:16:39. > :16:43.of the season. Reid backed up his manager's claimed that Forest never
:16:43. > :16:50.know when they are beaten. Forest earned a share of the points. He has
:16:50. > :16:55.been scoring good goals, no doubt, but at the start of the season, we
:16:55. > :17:04.are working progress club, we know that. We have fitness to get other
:17:04. > :17:09.guys into the side, but all in all a point is something you have to
:17:09. > :17:17.accept. We need to move on. What we wanted to do today was be brave, we
:17:17. > :17:22.went with three strikers. We wanted to send a message across to the
:17:22. > :17:28.players that although Forest are top team, we will try to win the game
:17:28. > :17:31.and we were close to doing that. The Championship's top scorers
:17:31. > :17:36.against its leaky as defence. Goals were always on the cards at Oakwell.
:17:36. > :17:41.There were three in the opening 18 minutes. First the flag stayed down
:17:41. > :17:45.for Troy Deeney, after Peter Ramage unsuccessfully attempted to play him
:17:46. > :17:49.offside. The first incidence of what David Flitcroft calls completely
:17:49. > :17:55.inept defending. Not that the mistakes were restricted to
:17:55. > :18:01.Barnsley. Watford's but -- dwelt on the ball and the Tykes were level.
:18:01. > :18:08.Barnsley's joy was short-lived. Watford regained the lead moments
:18:08. > :18:11.later. The Tykes offering to growing resistance as David Faraoni tapped
:18:11. > :18:19.in. It was the same story at the interval approached. The Hornets
:18:19. > :18:22.made it 3-1 as Anya found Forestieri the most switched on man in the
:18:22. > :18:27.sixth of -- in the six yard box. Watford added two more goals in the
:18:27. > :18:30.second half. Sean Murray found the corner as the Hornets made sure of
:18:30. > :18:37.their first win at Oakwell in 13 years. Anya made it 5-1, having won
:18:37. > :18:41.the war on the edge of his own box the Scottish international had the
:18:41. > :18:46.pace and the composure to score the 22nd goal that Barnsley have let in
:18:46. > :18:52.this season, the worst record in the whole of the Football League. An
:18:52. > :18:57.excellent victory. Against a tough pitch, where last year we lost three
:18:57. > :19:03.points, vital points, so we knew that we were required to play the
:19:03. > :19:07.match. There is a group of players I have trusted for six or seven months
:19:07. > :19:13.and they have let us down. They have let us down as a club and is as a
:19:13. > :19:17.group and I am not in denial. I will not accept complacency, which I have
:19:17. > :19:24.said from day one. David Croft hardly mincing his words. Watford
:19:25. > :19:28.break the 100 goal barrier, 104 goals in 54 games he has been in
:19:28. > :19:30.charge at Vicarage Road. A great statistic. He made five changes for
:19:30. > :19:45.the game at Oakwell. He got a deserved performance. David
:19:45. > :19:47.is disappointed with his players but it shows the depth in Watford's
:19:47. > :19:54.squad and the attacking options. Also they are brilliant away from
:19:54. > :19:57.home. They are up to 19 goals. They are difficult to play against and it
:19:57. > :20:01.was always going to be hard for Barnsley. Burnley living up to their
:20:01. > :20:04.label as the early surprise package in the Championship, up to second
:20:05. > :20:11.tonight. It is the highest they have been in the Championship. He is
:20:11. > :20:16.getting terrific consistency from his players, Sean Dyche? It is not a
:20:16. > :20:20.surprise any more. We expect Burnley to support -- Burnley to perform
:20:20. > :20:24.like this. He has made two changes in his side and it shows in the
:20:24. > :20:31.consistency of displays. Sam Vokes got on the scoresheet. I was picked
:20:31. > :20:34.to see Arfield get on the scoresheet. They have been great
:20:34. > :20:39.performances this year. David Jones has an injury, it will be
:20:39. > :20:45.interesting to see how Burnley cope. Credit to Queens Park Rangers, their
:20:45. > :20:51.lead after a 1-nil-macro when at Oakwell. They came up against Rob
:20:51. > :20:55.Green, in inspirational form. For Gary, how long does he carry on
:20:55. > :21:00.talking about bad luck? It must be so dispiriting for him and the
:21:00. > :21:03.players. It is better than getting thrashed every week. They are
:21:03. > :21:09.nowhere near that. They are writing games. They could have got something
:21:09. > :21:11.out of this game. QPR have been strong. They have to keep going. If
:21:11. > :21:14.you are getting beaten you have to strong. They have to keep going. If
:21:14. > :21:18.have a performance and he has been getting at. Having suffered a
:21:18. > :21:22.nightmare start to life at the Den, Millwall boss Steve Lomas celebrated
:21:22. > :21:28.his first win on Tuesday by impressively ending Blackpool's
:21:28. > :21:31.unbeaten start to the season. It was the perfect all that going into the
:21:31. > :21:33.South London derby against Charlton, who have struggled for form.
:21:33. > :21:37.Charlton made one change as Joe Pigott was given his first league
:21:37. > :21:40.start. Millwall were unchanged following their win over Paul
:21:40. > :21:52.Ince's side. Coventry from Kevin Keatings. -- commentary.
:21:52. > :22:02.A useful cross, very well defended by Beevers. Lovely ball in from
:22:02. > :22:15.Wiggins. The defending good enough from Beevers.
:22:15. > :22:29.A deflection and in. An own goal from defeat. -- from Dorian Dervite.
:22:29. > :22:39.He completely wrong-footed the goalkeeper, Ben Hamer. Millwall are
:22:39. > :22:43.heading the London derby. -- are ahead in the London derby. You can
:22:43. > :22:49.hear the boos from the home fans. Millwall are going well in the
:22:49. > :22:54.London derby at the Valley. There is a chance. It is wide, for Walford.
:22:54. > :22:59.Set up beautifully for Martyn Woolford. He had been eyeing his
:22:59. > :23:14.third goal of the season here. Hamer having to get down to make a
:23:14. > :23:25.save, that was on target from Liam Trotter. Great lay-off from the

:23:31. > :23:37.enough. That was really awkward, he saw that late. The cross was from
:23:37. > :23:48.Cameron Stewart. The defender gets it out of harm 's way at least for
:23:48. > :23:56.now. Deep one this time. The referee, not interested in the
:23:56. > :24:03.claims of the youngster, who was certainly being held by. Beevers
:24:03. > :24:11.That is an excellent pass by saw Dell, but it was a weak shot in the
:24:11. > :24:28.end. It was a routine save for David Forde in the end. Nicely worked by
:24:28. > :24:35.Millwall. Scott Malone! That was the chance to win the game certainly for
:24:35. > :24:47.Millwall. Excellent move, the away side bided their time and eventually
:24:47. > :24:58.got her substitute, Champlow, free, and it really should have been a
:24:58. > :25:01.goal. If Millwall can escape with a clean sheet here, it is an extra
:25:01. > :25:07.bonus, but maybe Charlton will have one last opportunity. Cameron
:25:07. > :25:11.Stewart! And that is a good save by Forde. He has not had too many to
:25:11. > :25:15.make, but that is his most crucial one. It was just creeping in. That
:25:15. > :25:23.is a good Very disappointed last weekend and
:25:23. > :25:28.it was hard to come in, but all credit to the boys, they apologised
:25:28. > :25:32.in the right way by putting that effort in on Tuesday night, and once
:25:32. > :25:38.we got that win, we needed to back it up with another performance, and
:25:38. > :25:42.we have done that. We did not have that spark in the first period,
:25:42. > :25:50.second-half, we gave a bit more, but games like this, you want to make
:25:50. > :25:56.sure you stay in it. It was tough for us. Two sides who were desperate
:25:56. > :25:58.not to lose, but for Millwall, that is some turnaround after no
:25:58. > :26:06.not to lose, but for Millwall, that victories in six. He will be
:26:06. > :26:13.delighted. It was a scruffy game, won by a scruffy goal. The ball was
:26:13. > :26:27.lost in midfield, and Millwall did this all the way through. They were
:26:27. > :26:31.prepared to counterattack. It was unfortunate for Dervite there. But
:26:31. > :26:35.you look the players who have come back into the fold, they are
:26:36. > :26:42.absolutely crucial, especially the captain, Paul Robinson. They looked
:26:42. > :26:45.very strong today. As for Chris Powell's side, it has been a
:26:46. > :26:51.bitterly disappointing start to the season, after exceeding expectations
:26:51. > :26:55.last season, I suppose. We counted no more than two shots on target. No
:26:55. > :27:01.doubt they missed the likes of Yann Kermorgant. They do, they miss his
:27:01. > :27:06.experience and leadership. The young lad worked hard up front, but it is
:27:06. > :27:12.tough there at the moment for Chris Powell's side, but they need to get
:27:12. > :27:19.some tempo going. Maybe they need to start pressing high up the pitch.
:27:19. > :27:22.Our last look at the Championship starts with Tony Mowbray's
:27:22. > :27:27.Middlesbrough, who came close to pulling off a shock win at inform
:27:27. > :27:29.Nottingham Forest in midweek. Could they manage all three points this
:27:29. > :27:37.time against Bournemouth have never won on
:27:37. > :27:42.Teeside, but their manager, Eddie Howe, must have thought their luck
:27:42. > :27:45.was about to change when they raced into a 2-goal lead inside 15
:27:45. > :27:51.minutes. Both goals came from the penalty spot. Rhys Williams conceded
:27:51. > :27:57.the first, and Brett Pitman accepted the responsibility. The Cherries had
:27:57. > :28:01.got their early breakthrough goal. When Lewis Grabban's header was
:28:01. > :28:05.handled by Frazer Richardson, Bournemouth have the perfect chance
:28:05. > :28:16.to extend their advantage. Same penalty taker, same outcome, Brett
:28:16. > :28:19.Pitman had a brace. Rowe's start to this league campaign has been
:28:19. > :28:30.disappointing. At least Kei Kamara's strike gave them a route
:28:30. > :28:36.back into the match. Tony Mowbray's team continued their comeback with
:28:36. > :28:40.an equaliser before the interval. Carayol's deflected shot went in.
:28:40. > :28:45.Middlesbrough went in front for the first time, 16 minutes from the end.
:28:45. > :28:50.Grant Leadbitter made the difference, as this high-scoring
:28:51. > :28:54.affair took another twist. There was later trauma to follow, as the
:28:54. > :29:00.unfortunate Jonathan Woodgate put through his own net to hand
:29:00. > :29:05.Bournemouth eight point from their longest trip this season. To make
:29:05. > :29:11.matters worse for Middlesbrough, they had Williams sent off for a
:29:11. > :29:19.challenge on Wes Thomas, as the home side finished the game with ten
:29:19. > :29:23.men. It was an eventful afternoon. Credits to them for coming here and
:29:23. > :29:30.playing the way they did. Credit to our team for having the character
:29:30. > :29:37.and drive and desire to come back. The game had everything, great for
:29:37. > :29:45.the neutral, not so great for it had great quality. Both teams showed
:29:45. > :29:49.character. With the Championship's two leading marksman on the same
:29:49. > :29:53.pitch, surely goals were guaranteed. Backbone's Jordan Rhodes is second
:29:53. > :29:58.only to James Vaughan in the scoring charts. The Huddersfield striker
:29:58. > :30:03.chipped the paintwork as he looked to move into double figures. The
:30:03. > :30:07.former Everton front man is always likely to get a chance, especially
:30:07. > :30:11.with wide men like Adam Hammill on the field.
:30:11. > :30:16.with wide men like Adam Hammill These penalty appeals were in vain,
:30:16. > :30:21.and the game looked destined to finish goalless. Blackburn's had for
:30:21. > :30:26.a third successive home win was slipping away. Adam Hammill's clever
:30:26. > :30:34.back header might have changed the scoreline. We grew into the game. I
:30:34. > :30:47.am disappointed that we did not take one of the chances that we had. It
:30:47. > :30:53.was Spanish day in Brighton. Spanish dress, Spanish food and beer and a
:30:53. > :30:55.Spanish own goal. David Lopez, or Spanish Dave, as he is known to
:30:55. > :31:02.Brighton fans, joined in the frivolity with this one. Bolton were
:31:02. > :31:08.already experiencing their worst league start in more than a century.
:31:08. > :31:16.The Trotters had luck at both ends in the first half. This effort from
:31:16. > :31:19.Lua Lua hit the woodwork. There are of course so many things that
:31:19. > :31:24.English foot all could learn from the Spaniards. Jay Spearing was
:31:24. > :31:31.determined to do just that, levelling matters with an own goal
:31:31. > :31:34.of his own. That was the first of three Brighton goals in forming its.
:31:34. > :31:38.of his own. That was the first of Another Spaniard, Inigo Calderon,
:31:39. > :31:43.put the seagulls ahead with his first goal in almost a year and a
:31:43. > :31:47.half. It was a morale boosting turnaround for Brighton, who have
:31:47. > :31:51.had to juggle their resources to cope with a lengthy injury list.
:31:51. > :31:54.Will Buckley came back into the starting line-up for this one, and
:31:54. > :32:02.as Bolton's second-half siesta continued, he helped himself to the
:32:02. > :32:10.pick of the goals. A first win in this for Brighton leaves Bolton
:32:10. > :32:18.rooted to the foot of the table. We had three tough games this week,
:32:18. > :32:23.and three great results, and the players deserved this win here in
:32:23. > :32:32.front of our fans. We are disappointed with the result, it was
:32:32. > :32:38.a crazy without a win at St Andrews, Birmingham City manager Lee Clark
:32:38. > :32:41.had indeed a debut to Jesse Lingard, signed on a one-month loan from
:32:41. > :32:47.Manchester United. The player marked the occasion in style. Chris Guillem
:32:47. > :32:53.Bauza saved this effort from Chris Burke, but Lingard was following up.
:32:53. > :32:59.-- Chris Guillem Bauza saved this effort. Lingard then claimed his
:32:59. > :33:05.second goal of the game. Lingard was revelling in the limelight. The
:33:05. > :33:08.player who came through the Old Trafford Academy completed his first
:33:08. > :33:18.half hat-trick, after being played in by Paul Robinson. The second half
:33:18. > :33:29.saw him adding to his tally. Birmingham heard an unassailable
:33:29. > :33:39.lead. Kamil Zayatte headed a consolation goal for Wednesday. For
:33:39. > :33:45.Jesse Lingard, it was a debut to remember. Four goals on debut does
:33:45. > :33:51.not happen often - talk me through them, particularly the first one. To
:33:51. > :33:56.be fair, but obviously, the first one was the best one. The 'keeper
:33:56. > :34:05.has parried it, and I got my confidence up. Hat-trick in five
:34:05. > :34:09.minutes, it tells you something. We switched off at vital times again,
:34:09. > :34:17.and all of a sudden, you can end up chasing the game. It is probably the
:34:17. > :34:21.worst I have seen us play for a long time. It does not bode well for Dave
:34:21. > :34:26.Jones and Sheffield Wednesday at the moment, but as debuts go, that has
:34:26. > :34:31.got to be the best we have seen on the Football League Show.
:34:31. > :34:35.Outstanding debut. I do not know a lot about him, on loan from
:34:35. > :34:39.Manchester United, I know he had a good pre-season tour of Asia, but he
:34:39. > :34:44.has hit the ground running for Birmingham. He looks like a real
:34:44. > :34:49.prospect. Wednesday, still looking for their first win Dave Jones, over
:34:49. > :34:55.the summer, did not make wholesale changes. He kept the squad together,
:34:55. > :35:01.and signed players on longer deals. Is that now coming home to roost? I
:35:01. > :35:06.just think he wanted that group to develop. At the start of last
:35:06. > :35:09.season, got quite a few loans in, and I think he wanted a different
:35:09. > :35:14.approach. This season, they have been in a lot of games. I think he
:35:14. > :35:18.felt it was only a matter of time before they got three points on the
:35:18. > :35:24.board, but that was a real shock to the system today, to be out of the
:35:24. > :35:27.game just after half-time. It was an atrocious performance, it has to be
:35:27. > :35:29.said. And Bolton, also looking for their first win of the campaign.
:35:29. > :35:37.said. And Bolton, also looking for They lost to Brighton. I remember
:35:37. > :35:45.last year, Bolton made a sluggish start. This time last season they
:35:45. > :35:50.were 17th after eight games. They fell just short of the play-offs in
:35:50. > :35:54.the end. What about this time? That was a great goal from Will Buckley,
:35:54. > :35:58.but the other goals they are conceding are absolutely appalling.
:35:58. > :36:02.That will be the real concern for Dougie Freedman, the type of goals
:36:02. > :36:07.they are conceding. They are avoidable. I think they have only
:36:07. > :36:11.had one clean sheet in 44 away games, it is absolutely staggering.
:36:11. > :36:14.If you go away from home not feeling that you can keep a clean sheet,
:36:14. > :36:20.invariably, you will come away with nothing. To League One, and what you
:36:20. > :36:28.might call the Peterborough effect, and now, with a reputation for
:36:28. > :36:40.unearthing all scoring talent, have Posh now unearthed the best yet?
:36:40. > :36:46.Hoovering up young, hungry, lower league players and polishing them
:36:46. > :36:49.for financial reward has turned Peterborough United into one of
:36:49. > :36:57.English foot will's premier talent factories. Craig Mackay Smith sold
:36:57. > :37:03.to Brighton for £2.5 million, Aaron McClain to Hull City for £1.25
:37:03. > :37:13.million, Paul Taylor to Ipswich town for £1.5 million. And then there is
:37:13. > :37:18.their most astute bit of business. Three years ago, Dwight Gayle was
:37:18. > :37:22.playing for Stansted in the ninth tier of English football, in front
:37:22. > :37:26.of 20 people. Last weekend he ran out for Crystal Palace at Old
:37:26. > :37:31.Trafford in front of 75,000, but only after Peterborough had bought
:37:31. > :37:38.him for £450,000 from Dagenham in bed which in January. They then sold
:37:38. > :37:46.him six months later in a deal which could we worth an eye watering £8.5
:37:46. > :38:11.million. What do you reckon about all of this? £25 million. We have
:38:11. > :38:16.got a good record. Any player that has come here and left, has two say
:38:16. > :38:22.they have improved. But the latest recruit has broken the mould. After
:38:22. > :38:31.15 goals in League two on loan at Southend United last season, Peter
:38:31. > :38:35.borough paid £1.5 million that this player and he has paid them back
:38:35. > :38:42.with six goals in seven league games and was named the full all league's
:38:42. > :38:53.Young player of the month. He is only 20, he is a great player. He
:38:53. > :38:58.wants to learn, improve his game. We, at Peterborough United love to
:38:58. > :39:05.buy talent from the football league, lower than those and still keep the
:39:05. > :39:10.club having a few quid out of it. Dagenham have made over £1 million
:39:10. > :39:15.from us. We are delighted, we help them make more. Your new signing has
:39:15. > :39:25.friends in high places. Show me this. This is a Real Madrid shirt
:39:25. > :39:35.and it has been said to you. " to Barry, great signing, West wishes
:39:35. > :39:42.from Gareth Bale". That seal of approval would receive justification
:39:42. > :39:49.although the day did not get off to a good start. Peter borough were
:39:49. > :39:56.reduced to ten men just seven minutes in. The lively atmosphere
:39:57. > :40:03.was met by a lively start to the game. Just five minutes after the
:40:03. > :40:09.red card, Posh made light of their numerical disadvantage. They earned
:40:09. > :40:32.their fifth penalty of the season. MK Dons came into the Derby
:40:32. > :40:37.in their last eight league games and gave themselves a chance of
:40:37. > :40:43.extending that run when the substitute pounced with 17 minutes
:40:43. > :40:50.left. Posh continued their record of not winning any points from winning
:40:50. > :41:01.positions, despite going down to nine men.
:41:01. > :41:06.It has been one of those days when the centre forward has had to do
:41:06. > :41:11.more than put the ball in the back the centre forward has had to do
:41:11. > :41:16.of the net? I did not think we were going to go ten men down. But then
:41:16. > :41:23.nine men down. Credit to all of the boys. Everybody had to convert to
:41:24. > :41:29.different positions. Playing with one up front and we had to grind it
:41:29. > :41:36.out. A day when your new centre forward was overshadowed by other
:41:36. > :41:38.events? Yes, that is the game, football decisions can change the
:41:38. > :41:48.game. We wanted a fair game, 11 football decisions can change the
:41:48. > :41:49.against 11, I think everyone did. But unbelievable performance from my
:41:49. > :41:54.players. The determination to win But unbelievable performance from my
:41:54. > :42:03.was outstanding. What an amazing game. Stats say Peter borough had
:42:03. > :42:09.four shots on goal, MK Dons had 33. They have fight in them, don't
:42:09. > :42:13.they? They certainly have. People always think Peter but are an open,
:42:13. > :42:19.entertaining side who will score more goals than you. You have do
:42:19. > :42:23.have desire to score goals. With what is going on at London Road, you
:42:23. > :42:28.have to fancy them when they go to Sunderland in midweek? I do.
:42:28. > :42:33.Sunderland will find it difficult. They will be happy to go there and
:42:33. > :42:39.be happy to have possession. They have a striker in tremendous form.
:42:39. > :42:44.It is a shame the cup tie is not on a Saturday. Wolves were looking to
:42:44. > :42:49.respond to the first defeat of the season against Shrewsbury Town.
:42:49. > :42:52.Graham Turner, it was his first competitive meeting with his former
:42:52. > :43:02.club since leaving Molineux in March, 1994.
:43:02. > :43:08.Wolves began this son with a point to prove after the home defeat to
:43:08. > :43:16.Walsall and they almost had the perfect start. A record crowd for a
:43:16. > :43:26.league game were treated to plenty of drama, if not goals. Wolves did
:43:26. > :43:35.not have the monopoly on near misses. This one might go down as
:43:35. > :43:41.one of the best of the season. It proved a very costly. With just six
:43:41. > :43:47.minutes to play, this header was blocked by Jon Taylor and to
:43:47. > :43:56.Shrewsbury Town's disbelief the referee thought and arm was used.
:43:56. > :44:00.The home side's resentment lingered. I have watched it on reruns from
:44:01. > :44:07.behind the goal, reruns from the side, slow motion and it is still
:44:07. > :44:12.inconclusive. It was a massive game for Shrewsbury Town. You could see
:44:12. > :44:18.the capacity crowd and the atmosphere was something we had to
:44:18. > :44:23.overcome. Walsall served up shop of the season
:44:23. > :44:28.so far in league one with that midweek when over Wolves. If that
:44:28. > :44:36.was intoxicating, this was more sobering. Rather run were looking
:44:36. > :44:49.for a fourth straight win. After Molineux, Walsall were not keen on
:44:49. > :44:55.becoming rather's victims. Marlon King's arrival has been met
:44:55. > :45:00.with mixed reaction by the fans. David Weir was hoping he would
:45:00. > :45:06.sharpen an attack. But they were restrict did too half chances and
:45:06. > :45:11.the pressure was heaped on David Weir when Kevin Davies played in
:45:11. > :45:20.Stuart Bevan midway through the second half as North end extended
:45:20. > :45:24.their win. Gillingham manager, Martin Allen is
:45:24. > :45:28.still waiting for his side to win this season. He will not have been
:45:28. > :45:32.impressed with the way Jones's Corner found its way through. They
:45:32. > :45:41.were heading for a fourth successive defeat, and despite gymnastics, Kobe
:45:41. > :45:47.Macdonald summed up how things are going at Rhys Field at the moment.
:45:47. > :45:53.Colchester have not been able to win. August the term was the last
:45:53. > :46:02.time they collected maximum points. -- August the 10th. They conceded
:46:02. > :46:04.here. But they might have had an inkling this would not be the
:46:04. > :46:14.perfect afternoon when this happened. A well weighted ball, and
:46:14. > :46:20.the shot hit the crossbar. Win, lose or draw, Crawley have a habit of
:46:20. > :46:25.getting on the scoresheet and Emile Sinclair marked his debut with his
:46:25. > :46:34.first goal since the £100,000 move from Peter borough. Barca's side
:46:34. > :46:38.playing their 100th league game should have been in the lead. But
:46:39. > :46:47.the goalkeeper's outstretched leg stopped the ball. The ball in the
:46:47. > :46:51.net in the second half, but this time an offside flag.
:46:51. > :47:04.Frustrating for Billy Clark at Crawley. We always talk about teams
:47:04. > :47:08.on bad runs. What about this? He won't want to see it again, but we
:47:08. > :47:15.will. It was harder to miss than score. Nice to see you take the
:47:15. > :47:21.sympathetic approach. Sheffield United, it has gone from bad to
:47:22. > :47:24.worse for them. Has it been a case of David Weir trying to change too
:47:24. > :47:30.much too soon with their philosophy of play? Seems to be. He is trying
:47:31. > :47:37.to get them playing at the back, develop late. They have only scored
:47:37. > :47:42.five goals this season, so they have not created much. Marlon King will
:47:42. > :47:47.hopefully change things, but the players have not got to grips. If
:47:47. > :47:52.you look at the players he has assembled, they are
:47:52. > :47:55.underperforming? They are. He is a new manager, new philosophy, he has
:47:55. > :48:01.underperforming? They are. He is a money so there is pressure. United
:48:01. > :48:06.are a great scout for anyone in that division because they are a massive
:48:06. > :48:09.club. But they need to up the tempo of their game to apply more
:48:09. > :48:16.pressure. Teams are taking advantage. Gillingham, newly
:48:16. > :48:23.promoted and the frustration grows from Martin Allen. Interestingly, he
:48:23. > :48:26.admits he was sticking to the same formula that got them up in the
:48:26. > :48:31.first place and maybe now he is having to start all over again? It
:48:31. > :48:36.is understandable, sticking with the team that won them the championship
:48:36. > :48:41.last season. But they finished last season on a bit of a whimper. They
:48:41. > :48:45.did not win their last three games. Sometimes you carry the momentum
:48:45. > :48:52.from last season. They won the title so early. They played a Bradford
:48:52. > :48:59.side who went out flying. Martin has got to find form and get the
:48:59. > :49:07.momentum back. They have a massive workrate. He transfer listed for
:49:07. > :49:11.players last week, so the transfers may be just about to start.
:49:12. > :49:16.Another local derby, this time between Swindon and Bristol City.
:49:16. > :49:21.Swindon needed a good performance with Chelsea next in the league
:49:21. > :49:24.cup. Sean O'Driscoll's side were desperate for their first win of the
:49:24. > :49:30.new campaign. Aden Flint was expect dinged a

:49:35. > :49:41.minutes in did not endear him any further. City are without a win this
:49:41. > :49:48.season. Chelsea have this warning against their cup tie next week.
:49:49. > :49:54.Thomas put city in front again as he backed up his claims he is not
:49:54. > :49:59.affected by the pressure is winless league starts has brought. The first
:49:59. > :50:03.league meeting between the teams the seven news had been keenly
:50:03. > :50:12.anticipated by both sets of fans, and it did not disappoint. All level
:50:12. > :50:17.just before the break. City snatched a point later on in their last game,
:50:17. > :50:22.but have one taken away from them in the closing stages this time around
:50:22. > :50:29.as Ranger is allowed to turn and smash home three minutes from time.
:50:29. > :50:34.If you paid money to watch that, I don't think you were short changed.
:50:34. > :50:40.To play a different game today. It was a local derby, a battle and we
:50:40. > :50:49.had to win a different kind of way today.
:50:49. > :50:55.A six match unbeaten run had helped Coventry raise their ten point
:50:55. > :51:02.deficit. Wilson's ninth goal in as many games looked to have kept their
:51:02. > :51:17.momentum going. Vale were seconds away from ending orients's 100%
:51:17. > :51:23.record last week. The Coventry fans would have enjoyed seeing that goal.
:51:24. > :51:30.I will not have appreciated this in the second half. Weakness in the air
:51:30. > :51:34.proved to be their undoing again. The winner came from someone who
:51:34. > :51:39.started at Port Vale before moving to Coventry and then shared a
:51:40. > :51:43.dressing room with David Rackham at LA Galaxy before returning to Vale
:51:43. > :51:57.Park. As they continue to redevelop the
:51:57. > :52:03.stadium, Johnson's side remain a working progress themselves. Oldham
:52:03. > :52:07.have lost the first three league games but Oliver Turton puts his
:52:07. > :52:12.first goal in for the club. Paul up games but Oliver Turton puts his
:52:12. > :52:19.with crew as they pushed for a second. Defender and goalkeeper
:52:19. > :52:25.keeping out Max Clayton's effort. The sides boasted just three wins
:52:25. > :52:32.between them all season, so perhaps there was only one likely outcome.
:52:32. > :52:38.Charlie Mac Donald only able to strike the post. Oldham managed to
:52:38. > :52:43.end their losing streak with an equaliser typical of a scrappy
:52:43. > :52:53.second half. Macdonald bungling the ball in for his second goal of the
:52:53. > :52:58.campaign. Stevenage boss Graham Westley predicted Carlisle would be
:52:58. > :53:01.a tough opposition, and he will not have enjoyed being proved right.
:53:01. > :53:04.a tough opposition, and he will not have enjoyed being United went ahead
:53:04. > :53:09.on 27 minutes. Graham Westley demanded a response after their
:53:09. > :53:23.defeat to Preston last time out, and his side were act level just before
:53:23. > :53:24.the hour mark. Graham Westley had hoped that the long journey south
:53:24. > :53:29.would work in his team's favour, but hoped that the long journey south
:53:29. > :53:37.two late goals made sure it would be all smiles on the trip home.
:53:37. > :53:41.Robson's fine individual effort was followed soon after by a well worked
:53:41. > :53:45.counterattack, as the joint lowest scorers in the Football League prior
:53:45. > :53:49.to kick-off doubled their tally for the season. David Amoo popped up in
:53:49. > :54:02.the right place to convert the rebound. It has been a dismal start
:54:02. > :54:07.to the season for both clubs. Notts County started today with a solitary
:54:07. > :54:12.point, but Josh Lafferty struck early against his old club to lift
:54:12. > :54:19.spirits around meadow lane after Tuesday's hammering at Leyton
:54:19. > :54:26.Orient. Tranmere's so sure now but above the table last season now
:54:26. > :54:33.seems a fading memory. The result and the performance was outstanding.
:54:33. > :54:37.After Leyton Orient, it was a long way back home to Nottingham, the
:54:37. > :54:43.longest day of my life. Chris was winning the at two o'clock in the
:54:43. > :54:51.morning, discussing formations, and how we got beat. So, even after that
:54:51. > :54:55.game, we were on the ball. As Mick Jones said, it looks like Notts
:54:55. > :55:01.County learned their lessons from what happened in midweek, and
:55:01. > :55:04.tonight, we are hugely glad for Christie won the, picking up his
:55:04. > :55:11.first win of the season. It must've been a few days for them. It must've
:55:11. > :55:19.been difficult. I am pleased that he has got a result. Their win over
:55:19. > :55:21.Tranmere was Tranmere's fifth defeat has got a result. Their win over
:55:21. > :55:31.of the season. Bespoke about Gelling's season, but for Tranmere
:55:31. > :55:36.-- Chillingham -- they seem to have been in this run for ever. It has
:55:36. > :55:42.been a difficult one for them, 16 points from their last 75, it says
:55:42. > :55:47.it all. They have got to find a way of picking up results. We saw
:55:47. > :55:51.Bristol city, still looking for their first win after relegation
:55:51. > :55:55.from the Championship. They came unstuck against their West Country
:55:55. > :55:59.rivals Swindon. Is it fair to say that the relationship between Sean
:55:59. > :56:05.O'Driscoll and the fans at Ashton Gate could be turning sour? Some
:56:05. > :56:10.fans. Some firms were booing during the game. You talk about transition,
:56:10. > :56:16.and Sean O'Driscoll has got a very difficult job, but fans want to see
:56:16. > :56:23.progression on the pitch. That is now 17 games without a win. A tour
:56:23. > :56:28.of the game we saw earlier, at Port Vale, with the home team squeezing
:56:28. > :56:33.through against Coventry, who have done brilliantly well, considering
:56:33. > :56:40.their circumstances. An excellent goal from Franck Moussa, despite
:56:40. > :56:45.being on the losing side. It was great for Micky Adams. He has got to
:56:45. > :56:49.go in for his hip replacement now, so he will step down for a while.
:56:49. > :57:02.But Adam Birchall, another ex-have an AAA, also scored. Moving onto
:57:02. > :57:12.League Two, first took on second. -- another ex-Coventry player. Without
:57:12. > :57:20.doubt, League Two's Match of the Day. The leaders were quickly in to
:57:21. > :57:26.their stride. Goalkeeper Ryan Clarke was called into action to keep
:57:26. > :57:30.things level. At the other end, Oxford served notice that they would
:57:30. > :57:34.not surrender easily. Dean Smalley's header went wide. With
:57:34. > :57:41.half an hour gone, Ritchie Humphreys started and finished the move which
:57:41. > :57:45.delivered the decisive blow. It was a fitting way to celebrate the birth
:57:45. > :57:56.of his second child, who had arrived just 24 hours a day earlier. A fifth
:57:56. > :58:00.successive win was on the cards. When Andy Whing went flying in on
:58:00. > :58:05.oil, the referee could only make one decision. In the dying stages, Dean
:58:05. > :58:10.Smalley hit the woodwork, but the home side could have no complaints.
:58:10. > :58:17.We are obviously really pleased with that. My wife was OK for me to come
:58:17. > :58:23.and play today. I went and saw them this morning. To score, and to win,
:58:23. > :58:27.it was fantastic. When teams are on a roll, Mike Chesterfield, they have
:58:27. > :58:32.got a good side, they are strong in all departments, they find you out.
:58:32. > :58:37.If we had got something from the game, it would not have been
:58:37. > :58:39.deserved. Portsmouth's. Continues. An own goal sealed their fate
:58:39. > :58:45.deserved. Portsmouth's. Continues. against Fleetwood. Bradley was the
:58:45. > :58:50.fall guy, after John Sullivan had made the save. That was enough for
:58:50. > :58:52.Fleetwood's fourth straight win. Unlike pompey, they are living up
:58:52. > :58:56.Fleetwood's fourth straight win. their billing as promotion
:58:56. > :59:00.contenders. The whole arena and the crowd support they have got here, it
:59:00. > :59:07.is a fantastic place to play. I am sure the lads will have relished the
:59:07. > :59:11.occasion of the game, the whole thing. We just played, we did not
:59:11. > :59:18.occasion of the game, the whole think about the crowd. We were
:59:18. > :59:21.really happy with the three points. Newport County were chasing a first
:59:21. > :59:27.league success since the middle of August. Adam Chapman's long throw
:59:27. > :59:32.caused all sorts of problems in the Exeter defence, and Washington
:59:32. > :59:37.cashed in. Exeter's affect home record was under threat. Alan Gow
:59:37. > :59:42.will wonder how he failed to score here. It was a glaring miss, and one
:59:42. > :59:54.which proved costly, as Washington turned provider for the second. This
:59:54. > :59:58.time, it was a convincing finish. On paper, this was a home banker, with
:59:59. > :00:09.Wycombe are enjoying their best start to a season in five years. Sam
:00:09. > :00:12.Wood was not far away, and York boss Nigel Worthington felt an upturn in
:00:12. > :00:17.fortunes was just around the corner. His side carved out a series of good
:00:17. > :00:26.chances. Matt Ingram made the save on this occasion, before David
:00:26. > :00:32.McGurk scored to put the visitors into the lead. Six minutes later,
:00:32. > :00:40.Dean Morgan, who has now scored in into the lead. Six minutes later,
:00:41. > :00:49.his last four, got the equaliser, as Wycombe extended their unbeaten run.
:00:49. > :00:54.Four wins in a row had catapulted more come up the table, but someone
:00:54. > :00:59.else in the form gave them a jolt, as Abo Ogogo got his fourth in six
:00:59. > :01:04.games. The home side were gifted two own goals at Newport in their last
:01:04. > :01:09.game. Set pieces were the source of their success in this one. Padraig
:01:09. > :01:14.Amond was on the end of this cross for the first. Then, Mark Hughes got
:01:14. > :01:22.his first league goal for nearly four years. However, as four minutes
:01:22. > :01:32.of added time was about to expire, former Arsenal youngster Rhys Murphy
:01:32. > :01:36.ended the Shrimps' winning streak. Now, pay attention, you wonder
:01:36. > :01:41.whether a red card might have been shown for this challenge on
:01:41. > :01:45.Wimbledon's Michael Smith, or this one, on Zander Diamond. But no, it
:01:45. > :01:47.was an off-the-ball incident which had the referee reaching for his top
:01:47. > :01:54.pocket. It was Marcus Holness who had the referee reaching for his top
:01:54. > :01:59.was sent off. This was following him raising his hands. But the visitors
:01:59. > :02:06.responded well, straight from a corner, Adam McGurk's shot deflect
:02:06. > :02:07.ting in, as Burton raised hopes of a third successive away win. Wishful
:02:07. > :02:12.ting in, as Burton raised hopes of a thinking, as it turned out, it was
:02:12. > :02:17.Wimbledon working to extend their best ever start to a Football League
:02:17. > :02:21.season. From left, to write, to the back of the net, thanks to Michael
:02:21. > :02:25.Smith's fifth of the campaign. Wimbledon would not be in the league
:02:25. > :02:28.at all have they failed to beat Fleetwood on the final day of last
:02:29. > :02:35.season. The man who's winning penalty kept them up, Jack Midson,
:02:35. > :02:40.got his first goal since that game. From relegation near miss to early
:02:40. > :02:48.contenders for automatic promotion, Andy Frampton's header lifted
:02:48. > :02:52.Wimbledon up to third. After making a losing return to the Football
:02:52. > :02:56.League on the opening day, Mansfield have not looked back. They were
:02:56. > :03:01.bidding to stretch their unbeaten run to seven league games against
:03:01. > :03:04.strugglers Northampton. A peach of a free kick from Ben Hutchinson had
:03:04. > :03:08.them in front after half an hour. It was another blow for the side which
:03:08. > :03:12.has made its worst start in 12 years. Soon after, Sam Clucas hit
:03:12. > :03:16.the target for the fourth game running. Aidy Boothroyd has shrugged
:03:16. > :03:28.off recent criticism, but this latest setback left him fuming. It
:03:28. > :03:38.was a speck secular own goal from debutant Doumbe. The home side lines
:03:38. > :03:43.to fifth following this result. Remember, football fans, there is
:03:43. > :03:47.always someone worse off than you - unless you support Accrington.
:03:48. > :03:52.Having already made the bottom spot their own, they shipped two goals to
:03:52. > :03:57.Rochdale inside 13 minutes. Matty Lund got the first, after Michael
:03:57. > :04:01.Rose had struck the woodwork. When hammering unmarked Scott Hogan
:04:01. > :04:06.headed home, Accrington's eighth consecutive defeat looked likely.
:04:06. > :04:14.But just before the half-hour, the flag stayed down, and Odejayi put
:04:14. > :04:19.Stanley back in it on his home debut. Their prospects improved when
:04:19. > :04:25.Rochdale were reduced to ten men in first half injury time. It was an
:04:25. > :04:29.innocuous looking challenge by George Donnelly, but it was deemed a
:04:29. > :04:32.straight red card offence. In fairness, Donnelly was not arguing.
:04:32. > :04:38.That Accrington could not make the most of the extra man. Odejayi was
:04:38. > :04:43.responsible for one of several near misses, but Accrington are stranded
:04:43. > :04:52.on just one point at the very bottom of the Football League. Scunthorpe
:04:52. > :05:05.had yet to record back-to-back victories. The game improved after
:05:05. > :05:10.the restart, as Sam win all help set up Esajas for his first goal for the
:05:10. > :05:15.club. The player is enjoying his new surroundings. This was Argyle's
:05:15. > :05:23.first visit here for four seasons, and it was one they would rather
:05:23. > :05:27.forget. Reid twice found the Scunthorpe net, only for both
:05:27. > :05:32.efforts to be ruled out. Scunthorpe substitute Dion Burton could have
:05:32. > :05:36.made the scoreline more comfortable, but for the crossbar.
:05:36. > :05:43.It did not matter, they had already done enough to register their second
:05:43. > :05:52.home win of the season. It has been a top survey week for Southend's Ben
:05:52. > :05:57.Coker, having got the match-winning goal, an own goal, last time out. He
:05:57. > :06:00.atoned for that with his first-ever proper gold in the Football League.
:06:00. > :06:04.But that was followed by an overload, as he picked up two
:06:04. > :06:09.bookings within seconds minutes late on in the game, the second one for
:06:09. > :06:10.kicking the way. And the Shrimpers would be made to pay in stoppage
:06:10. > :06:15.time, as this fixture ended 1-1 for would be made to pay in stoppage
:06:15. > :06:18.the fourth time in a row. Craig would be made to pay in stoppage
:06:18. > :06:29.Jones has the most assists in League Two, and he set up another one, this
:06:29. > :06:33.time for Anton Forrester. Hartlepool's wait for a league win
:06:33. > :06:38.ended last week at home to Accrington, and Jonathan Franks
:06:38. > :06:44.almost kept the revival going. Bristol Rovers have relied on their
:06:44. > :06:47.form at home for all of their points so far. Some classic centre forward
:06:47. > :06:54.play from Matt Harrold put them ahead. But they had barely a minute
:06:54. > :06:57.to enjoy the experience, as teenager Luke James produced another goal out
:06:57. > :07:03.of keeping with the lower reaches of the Football League. His second, the
:07:03. > :07:07.third of the game within a ten minute spell before half-time, was
:07:07. > :07:14.not quite as pleasing on the eye, but neither he nor his team-mates
:07:14. > :07:18.would have cared. And James almost completed a first career hat-trick
:07:18. > :07:24.after picking John-Joe O'Toole's pocket. But Steve Mildenhall bailed
:07:24. > :07:29.out his team-mate. The value of that safe was underlined in the final
:07:29. > :07:38.minute, as O'Toole ensured Hartlepool's journey back to the
:07:38. > :07:44.north-east would feel a lot longer. We have got something out of the
:07:44. > :07:50.game that was richly deserved. We made to lapses in that first half
:07:50. > :07:58.and it cost us goals. The second half, we dominated the game. We put
:07:58. > :08:02.a decent performance in. Went a goal down, turned it round. The
:08:02. > :08:08.disappointing thing for our lads is, to turn the game around, and Bristol
:08:08. > :08:15.Rovers through the kitchen sink at us in the second half. The Torquay
:08:15. > :08:19.boss had enough goofing around. One win from the opening seven games,
:08:19. > :08:24.their worst start to a season in four years. But this was the day
:08:24. > :08:30.they got the breaks. A helping hand to minutes in handed halon ball in
:08:30. > :08:42.his first goal since signing on loan from Derby. Cheltenham made their
:08:42. > :08:49.worst campaign for five years. But Torquay could rest up at half time
:08:49. > :08:56.knowing they have the lead and Ball, two games to his name. Time
:08:56. > :09:05.for Hawley to take centre stage within five minutes of the restart.
:09:05. > :09:11.His 11th goal of his career. United did allow them back into it as this
:09:11. > :09:15.all was squeezed home to set up an anxious finale for a Torquay side
:09:15. > :09:20.who have not won at home since mid April. At last they were dancing on
:09:20. > :09:28.the terraces as Jordan Chapel made certain of the points.
:09:28. > :09:42.As for the league to Match Of The Day, what about that victory for
:09:42. > :09:47.Chesterfield. Ritchie Humphreys? He plays the pass out wide. Having
:09:47. > :09:54.played further up the field, he has a terrific finish on him. That goal
:09:54. > :09:58.secured the three points. They have only conceded three goals this
:09:58. > :10:06.season. For Portsmouth, they came unstuck for the third time in four
:10:06. > :10:09.matches at Fratton Park. Just when you thought it could be a fortress
:10:09. > :10:17.for them, the early signs are not encouraging? Unfortunately, the own
:10:17. > :10:21.goal they concede. 60,000 at Fratton Park, teams are going there and
:10:21. > :10:24.lifting their game. That is something they are going to have to
:10:24. > :10:29.deal with if they are to move forward. You go to the atmosphere at
:10:29. > :10:34.Fratton Park, it is laying against them a little bit. We have got to
:10:34. > :10:41.mention AFC Wimbledon. A great result against Burton in what could
:10:41. > :10:51.be a good few days for the club? It looks like they are going back to
:10:51. > :10:55.their old stadium. I used to hate going there and playing against
:10:55. > :11:04.Wimbledon. It has been a very good week for them. We saw this goal
:11:04. > :11:08.which may have been an own goal, but there was no doubt about this one.
:11:08. > :11:20.Luck was not going Northampton's away on Saturday. Absolute quality.
:11:20. > :11:42.He will never better that. Let's have a look at the tables.
:11:42. > :11:44.Bolton and Sheffield Wednesday still searching for that first win of the
:11:45. > :12:27.season. 60 feet in a row for Accrington, who
:12:27. > :12:35.are yet to taste victory. -- 60 feats.
:12:35. > :12:37.That is almost it, but a quick reminder as to more football this
:12:37. > :12:55.weekend. We are back on Wednesday night with
:12:55. > :13:01.the third round of the Capital One Cup. Thanks for your company
:13:01. > :13:07.tonight. We will see you on Wednesday, but for now, good night.
