omg Ayobami: Just two home teams leading at half-time in Championship, League One and League Two #strange
HT: Wigan 0-1 Cardiff
A new season means a new kit, new players and sometimes... a new mascot.
Wigan Athletic have revealed a giant pie as theirs, with Crusty The Pie winning a competition among primary school pupils.
It's making its debut this afternoon at the Latics' season opener against Cardiff.
Local children Cayden, eight, and Neve, nine, designed and presented the quirky mascot: "We designed Crusty like this because everyone in Wigan loves pies," they said.
Saturday's EFL action
Believe it or not 19 English Football League clubs have appointed new bosses since the end of last season.
Another will soon follow, with Sheffield Wednesday still searching for a permanent successor to Steve Bruce.
But can you match the new coaches with the teams they are in charge of?
You have four minutes to try to name all 19 clubs. Good luck!
Saturday's EFL action
Most, if not all, of our 15:00 BST kick-offs have reached half-time, so let's take a look at some of the headlines across the EFL after 45 minutes...
Barnsley 1-0 Fulham
Mike-Steven Bähre has been an absolute demon for Barnsley.
But he strikes wide after getting the ball from Mallik Wilks - Fulham have been second best all over.
Ben Purrington (43 mins)
It had been coming!
Ben Purrington scored his first ever league goal in Charlton's League One play-off final victory and now he has his second on the first day of the new season.
The wing-back gets onto the end of Jonny Williams' cross and the Addicks lead at Blackburn.
Blackburn 0-0 Charlton
Charlton talisman Lyle Taylor is the latest to threaten Blackburn, his shot tipped away by Christian Walton.
Lee Bowyer's side have been tipped for the drop by many but they're giving a good account of themselves here.
Barnsley 1-0 Fulham
31 minutes: Fulham defender Maxime Le Marchand goes in the book for a lunge on Cameron McGeehan.
32 minutes: Le Marchand is substituted for Cyrus Christie.
Scott Parker not afraid to make the big decisions when it's not working for his side.
Blackburn 0-0 Charlton
It's been a quiet one at Ewood Park but Charlton throw their hands up hoping for a penalty as Jonny Williams' cross hits an outstretched arm.
The ref seems well-placed though and says no. Blackburn are in the clear.
Jed Wallace (33 mins)
Left footed volley into the top left hand corner from Jed Wallace.
A cracking goal to give the Lions the lead.
Leyton Orient 0-0 Cheltenham
It's still goalless at Brisbane Road, but regardless of what's happening on the pitch is pretty insignificant compared to the wonderful tribute made before the game to the late Leyton Orient boss Justin Edinburgh.
Former Tottenham full-back Edinburgh died in June aged 49, five days after suffering a cardiac arrest during a visit to the gym and just over a month after leading Orient to the National League title.
Two flags, including one paid for by money raised by two Cheltenham supporters' groups,were carried around the pitch before kick-off.
A minute's silence was also held, while home supporters held up banners to create a "JE3" mosaic.
Stoke 0-1 QPR
We know Nick Powell has talent in abundance and he nearly scores a fantastic half-volley to open his Stoke account.
It's a good dig from the edge of the box and QPR stopper Joe Lumley looked pleased to see it fly wide of his post.
Brentford 0-1 Birmingham
The Bees must be thinking how on earth they are a goal down here.
Just before going a goal down the home side hit the bar TWICE.
Oh well I guess as the saying goes, you've got to take your chances.
Saturday's EFL action
That Sheffield Wednesday goal means five of the eight Championship matches are being led by the away team.
That's a lot of home supporters feeling less optimistic about their side's prospects than they were 30 minutes ago!
Barnsley are the only home side leading.
Kadeem Harris (30 mins)
Sheffield Wednesday hit the front at the Madejski Stadium.
Kadeem Harris, a free transfer arrival from Cardiff, is played in on the left and calmly fires home from close range.

Joe Gibney: My three pre-season EFL picks are all losing within 15 minutes of the opening day. At least there's still nine months to turn things around I suppose.
