    GOAL: Hull City 0-2 Nott'm Forestpublished at 16:25 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Joe Lolley (64 mins)

    Two in two minutes?!

    Joe Lolley finds the back of the net, via a helpful deflection, and Forest pounce with a quickfire brace to edge in front at the KCOM Stadium.

    Hull have a decent record against Forest but the Reds are in control this afternoon.

    Joe Allen (61 mins)

    Stoke City have turned this game on its head!

    Thomas Ince is again heavily involved, but it's Joe Allen with the goal, smashing the ball home from close range to put the hosts in front.

  3. An unlikely comeback?published at 16:24 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Aiden McGeady has just halved 10-man Sunderland's deficit against Walsall.

  5. goal

    GOAL: Swansea 1-4 Norwichpublished at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Teemu Pukki (60 mins)

    Cometh the hour, cometh the man... who sounds like a Pokemon character and scores for fun.

    The fine-finishing-Finn was picked out superbly by Onel Hernandez, and eased himself into the right position to get the shot away and score. That's 11 in all this term.

    Fightback quashed? Canaries running away with it again.

    Sheff Wed 1-2 Derby

    Fernando Forestieri has passed up a sitter, of sorts. No chance is truly easy, but he was one on one with Scott Carson and we've seen him bury those.

    Wide of the target. Not a bad effort from the Owls, who are doing their best to eak their way back in.

  7. A rare lead for strugglers Nottspublished at 16:20 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Notts CountyImage source, Dan Westwell

    Second-from-bottom Notts County, who appointed Neal Eardley during the week, have taken the lead away to Morcambe in League Two.

    Cambridge goalscorer Paul Lewis has just been shown a second yellow against Bury, leaving the U's down to 10 men, while in League One Blackpool are now 3-0 up against Burton. It was 0-0 only 15 minutes ago.

  8. Postpublished at 16:19 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Preston 2-1 Blackburn

    Preston are indebted to goalkeeper Declan Rudd, who beats away a thunderous 30-yarder from Elliott Bennett to maintain the home side's lead.

    Rovers a different proposition in this second half.

  9. RED CARD (Brownhill)published at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Leeds 0-0 Bristol City

    Ah, this might open things up a bit.

    Bristol City have been well in this game but they're now down to 10 men at Elland Road. Josh Brownhill receives a second yellow card and the door is ajar for Leeds.

  10. Walsall & Blackpool flyingpublished at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Walsall have gone 2-0 up in the space of five minutes against second-placed Sunderland in League One.

    Not to be outdone, Blackpool have also scored another second-half goal to double their lead against Burton.

  11. Postpublished at 16:13 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Hull City 0-0 Nott'm Forest

    Hull City have come out swinging in this second half, typified by a sizzler from Kamil Grosicki, whose shot is just about held by Costel Pantilimon.

    Will someone have a moment of quality to settle this?

  12. Millwall-Bolton finally restartspublished at 16:12 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Millwall 0-1 Bolton

    After all those referee changes, it's no surprise that we're suffering major delays at The Den.

    Expect a late finish for this one.

  13. Postpublished at 16:09 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Leeds 0-0 Bristol City

    We mentioned earlier that Bristol City have more than held their own against Leeds so far - and now they've nearly gone ahead too.

    Niclas Eliasson's curling effort, having cut inside onto his favoured left foot, is just about deflected on to the roof of the net. Unlucky.

  14. goal

    GOAL: Preston 2-1 Blackburnpublished at 16:09 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Danny Graham (48 mins)

    Nice way to introduce yourself after coming on.

    Danny Graham makes his mark, steering in a cross with his head for his fifth goal of the season.

    Rovers make their mark early in the second half and Preston look a little vulnerable.

  15. Postpublished at 16:08 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Swansea 1-3 Norwich

    Graham Potter has gone pretty hard in this second-half. He's thrown on Wilfried Bony and Martin Olsson, with Leroy Fer and Jay Fulton coming off.

    Bony's last Swans goal came in January...

  16. Early second-half goals in League Onepublished at 16:06 Greenwich Mean Time 24 November 2018

    Armand Gnanduillet has just netted his seventh goal of the season for Blackpool against Burton to make it 1-0.

    Meanwhile, 10-man Sunderland have conceded to go 1-0 down away to Walsall.

    Right. Fluids imbibed, stretches done, the gaffer's words ringing in your ears...

    It's time for the second-half. Let's get it on.

    Jamie Cureton celebrates scoring for Reading against Walsall in the Division Two play-off final in 2001

    While we wait to get cracking again, the name Jamie Cureton will almost certainly mean something to fans of all 72 of the EFL clubs.

    Remarkably, the 43-year-old, who had spells with 11 teams plying their trade in the Football League, is still playing in the seventh tier with Bishop's Stortford.

    The ex-Norwich, Bristol Rovers, Reading, QPR, Swindon, Colchester, Norwich again, Barnsley, Shrewsbury, Exeter and Cheltenham man has scored in every season from 1994-95 onwards.

    After scoring his 350th career goal last week he's now targetting breaking 400 before he finally hangs up his boots.
