What is happening elsewhere in the Championship?
Birmingham City and Blackpool experienced differing results under new management this weekend, with Gary Rowett picking up a potentially valuable point with the Blues at West Midlands rivals Wolves while Lee Clark, sacked by the Blues, saw the Seasiders lose 2-0 to Ipswich Town.
The Seasiders yesterday completed the three-month loan signing of young Norwich City winger Jacob Murphy, as they desperately look to move off the foot of the table.
Watford are the new leaders in the division, with an in-form Bournemouth close behind in second while Brighton and Hove Albion manager Sami Hyypia remains under concerted pressure following another defeat, this time at the Cherries with the Seagulls sat just one place above the bottom three.
Plus, there are transfer rumours continuing to float around, with the loan window still open for business and presenting an opportunity for managers to bolster their squads.
