The EFL always has a surprise for us doesn't it?
Just when you think Fulham's march to the Premier League cannot be quashed, up pop Huddersfield to deliver a timely reminder there is still some time to go.
It'll be an easier night's sleep for Veljko Paunovic tonight too, after his Reading side finally ended their miserable run with victory over Preston.
And Derby and Coventry taught us to always play to the whistle, with their late winners against Peterborough and Barnsley.
You don't want to miss any more of that excitement, do you?
Join us on Tuesday then. You have to.
