A big night in the Championship last night and by all accounts the league is really up and running

A big night in the Championship last night and by all accounts the league is really up and running. Early pace setters Burnley carved out a one nil win at Leicester courtesy of a neat Andy Gray header on the stroke of half-time. The Clarets hit the underside of the bar twice and Steve Jones saw his shot deflected off the line. But in reality Leicester had the better possession for large parts of the game. Unfortunately for them they failed to make it count. The managers had this to say:

Leicester boss Rob Kelly:
"It's not the start we wanted at home and I am very disappointed, especially for the supporters.

"We've now played 180 minutes of football and not scored a goal or won a game. We're not firing or igniting.

"What we have to do is roll our sleeves up and work hard to put that right. In the last two games, we've not reached the standards we are capable of."

Burnley boss Steve Cotterill:
"It's a good start but it is important we don't get carried away. At the same time, it's vital to get these points on the board.

"The lads have had a great summer programme. They have come back fit and strong, and I am delighted for them.

"We've got rid of two headaches and now we've only got 44 headaches to go."

Dear Steve Cotterill,

Would you like to buy some gold jewelery? I have all varieties and it's better than owt you can buy in Argos. Have a word with Micah Hyde and I'm sure he'll tell you what great value for money you're getting. He bought some gold pants from me and wears them everytime he goes out down Lava & Ignite.
Loads of the Man Utd players are wearing this shit nowadays, even Scholes and ginger folk have to be careful what they wear incase of it clashing.
Honestly mate it's class.

All the Best,
Big Jed.
