  1. SUBSTITUTION

    Will we get a goal in this one? Nathaniel Clyne is bleeding from his nose after a tussle but Saints have lacked any cutting edge up top so far. They have though brought on Dusan Tadic.

    It's kicking off again - on the pitch this time. Referee Mike Dean is a busy man, a classic 'arms by the sides' stance from the official as he takes his time to sort out this melee. Lee Cattermole is summoned, and booked. It was a poor challenge too, he just kicked David Meyler in the Achilles and triggered some pushing.

    Championship

    Cardiff step up their game putting three goals past Rotherham in the space of 10 minutes. Wolves get a goal back against Bournemouth to level the score through striker Benik Afobe, Huddersfield also go square against Brentford through Harry Bunn. Charlton take back the lead to go 2-1 up at The Valley. Goals from Patrick Bamford and Kike make it 2-0 for Middlesbrough against Millwall.

    League One

    Rochdale score from the spot from Ian Henderson against Crewe. Gary McSheffrey pulls a goal back for Scunthorpe just before half-time in their game against Fleetwood, while MK Dons lead Chesterfield.

    League Two

    Accrington get a goal to put them level with Shrewsbury. Northampton, Morecambe, Dagenham and Redbridge, York, Carlisle and Bury are leading 1-0.

  4. CLOSE!

    Gus Poyet on his phone high up in the stands is almost out of his seat as John O'Shea flicks a header wide. Hull instantly counter and Nikica Jelavic finds Dame N'Doye inside the box. Finish it - No! N'Doye hits it - I would estimate - 80 feet over the bar. Complete mishit.

    "A great chance. A superb delivery from Chris Brunt and it should have been 1-1. Welcome to the game West Bromwich Albion."

  6. CLOSE!

    Big chance for Albion! Craig Dawson get away from Jose Okore to meet a wonderful delivery from Chris Brunt at the near post, and he heads over! Tony Pulis does a Tim Sherwood impression, decking it to his knees.

    He has to hit the target there. Has to!

  7. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Palace should be ahead! First Yannick Bolasie gets clear and hits a tame shot right at Fraser Forster, poor effort, and then seconds later Wilfried Zaha skims a low shot against the far post!

    Jose Fonte could have cleared his lines but took far too long and allowed Zaha to get the ball down and get a shot away.

    "Gabriel Agbonlahor has been like a terrier, he has put it in all the way through the night. He chased down a ball from about 40 yards away and the only way Joleon Lescott would have stopped him is by fouling him."

  9. YELLOW CARD

    A bit of confidence and Gabriel Agbonlahor is a new man, skinning three defenders with a powerful run, slaloming past two before Joleon Lescott is booked for taking him out. Ashley Westwood bends the free-kick over the top.

    Albion have been below average, a long way below so far, but when there's one goal in it you fear for Villa.

  10. Gus PoyetGetty Images

    Gus Poyet has taken an executive view for the second half from high up in the posh seats. Can his side show the same fighting spirit as he did in this half? They've created nothing, Sunderland so far.

  11. Palace have a shot on target - it's their first one! Yannick Bolasie crosses from the left, Jason Puncheon twists out of a tackle to get a shot off and Fraser Forster stands up strong to punch it away. Better from the visitors.

  12. A few of you are tweeting in to ask for a penalty when Ben Foster half saved that earlier chance from Gabriel Agbonlahor - but where is Foster supposed to go?

  13. KICK-OFF

    And last, but not least, back under way at Hull.

  14. KICK-OFF

    Game on at Villa Park.

  15. KICK-OFF

    Back under way in Southampton.

    "Leave it Steve! He's not worth it!"

  17. AS IT STANDS

    Aston Villa

    Aston Villa are on track for a first win in 12 Premier League games, and are on track to climb out of the bottom three too. A big second half coming up.

  18. Bruce v Poyet

    BBC Radio 5 live

    Alistair Yeomans at KC Stadium: "It was quite bizarre. Jack Rodwell went down in the box and referee Mike Dean booked him for simulation. The Sunderland drinks cabinet was knocked over and there was water everywhere. Mr Poyet said too much and suggested Mr Bruce had involvement in his booking. There was then a coming together between the two and had to be separated."

  19. What's happened to Southampton's early-season pep? A dismal first-half at St Mary's, really drab stuff.

  20. Former Scotland international Pat Nevin

    "If it was 2-0, I do not see how West Brom could have come back. they have offered very little going forward. This is a relegation dogfight and West Brom cannot afford to get complacent.

    "There was a deadness around the place at Villa Park. They needed something new. Quite often that is not the fault of the manager. Any number of manager's can come in and lift the place. It did not happen straight away but has done in this game."
