Episode Notes

A week is a long time in the football league, and West Ham used back-to-back matches to kickstart their season with two big wins.

Tom Clarke is joined by Gregor Robertson as Nuno Espirito Santo's team finally get moving in The Championship and there's more impressive results for Swansea, Middlesbrough, West Brom and Bristol City.

Elsewhere the guys wonder whether Jamie Vardy's arrival is really going to be enough to save Nicky Hayen at Burnley? And Tom is upset with Wolves manager Cesar Peixoto.

In League One it goes from bad to worse for Russell Martin and Leicester and it's screamers galore in League Two.
