Cracking game between Bournemouth and reading, reading blowing a two goal halftime lead to go down 4-2, Bournemouth take top spot at their expense

He would be a popular choice with the fans. Surprised he's not in a management position.

Ya, always wondered why he wasn’t snapping up by another team, has potential

Thierry Henry is close to becoming the new manager of Bournemouth after the Championship side requested permission to open talks from his current club Montreal Impact, an odd move as he's not exactly lit up the world in management

Just seen on the news that Bournemouth have instructed their players to stop taking the knee before a match because it has lost it's effectiveness. They do have a point.

Exactly, it’s done now, if the message hasn't registered now it's not going to, I’m sure there is another bandwagon the media savvy premier league can jump on just around the corner

Brentford's hopes of automatic promotion take another blow today losing 2-0 to Coventry. They're still in second place behind Ipswich but in recent days their good form has turned bad.

Nigel Pearson is back in management at least in the short term. He has been named as manager of Bristol City until the end of the season with the possibility of a full time contract after that. Pearson replaces Dean Holden who was sacked last week with the club in 15th place in the table after 7 defeats in a row.

Decent manager but an unlikable person, always squad problems wherever he is, not a people person that's for sure

Norwich beat Birmingham 3-1 tonight to go 10 points clear of Brentford at the top of the Championship table although the Canaries have played a game more than the London team. Bottom club Wycombe beat Reading 1-0 which is a blow to their playoff chances. Bristol City beat Middlesbrough by the same scoreline with their new manager Nigel Pearson watching from the stands. Notts Forest beat Rotherham 1-0, Derby beat Huddersfield 2-0 and Luton drew with Millwall 1-1.

Norwich will go up again , hopefully they can make a good attempt at staying up unlike last year.

I think Watford might grab 2nd .

Be interesting to see the top 6 at the end of the season

Brentford are on a bad run at the moment

In the Championship tonight Brentford beat Sheffield Wednesday 3-0 to stay in 2nd place in the table on goal difference from Watford who beat Blackburn 3-2 away.
Swansea beat Coventry 1-0 to stay in 4th place but have 2 games in hand over the teams above them.
Cardiff are still unbeaten under Mick McCarthy after a 2-1 away win against Bournemouth which takes them into the play off places on goals scored.
Barnsley beat Stoke 2-0 which leaves the Yorkshire team a point below the play off places with a game in hand over most of the teams above them.
Preston drew with QPR 0-0 with both teams staying in mid table.
