Episode Notes

All the latest from the Championship, League One and League Two with Tom Clarke and Gregor Robertson.

Another big win for West Ham sends them top, Southampton are climbing, Swansea and West Brom are surprise packages with Wolves and Middlesbrough looking good - could they all win the Championship? Is it down to just two or three or are there outsiders who are yet to show their best?

At the bottom Preston sack Heckingbottom after another defeat; could Nicky Hayen at Burnley be next?

In League One Russell Martin got a huge win for Leicester City and gave an emotional interview discussing the hostility directed towards him, but will his win away at Stockport be enough to turn around an unhappy fan base at the King Power.

Wycombe sack their manager Michael Duff and immediately get a win; Neil Harris works his magic at Cambridge and quickest team goal at Plymouth.

In League Two are York City looking at back to back promotions and Gregor's old club Grimsby have a candidate for goal of the weekend.

Plus the usual goal, moment and result of the weekend in each division.
