19:45 Bradford 2 - 1 Bristol City
19:45 Brighton 1 - 0 Gillingham

19:45 N'hampton 0 - 1 Brentford
19:45 Oldham 0 - 1 Port Vale
19:45 Yeovil 0 - 0 Bournemth

Port Vale, Forest, Cheltenham, Brighton and Brentford lead the way with 100% records.

Its going to be very tough for Rotherham, their squad doesnt look the best and they are already
-10pts.

Rotherham surely are down. Shame because I used to like the trip to Millmoor, it was a "culture shock" you might say!

A quick round up of the weekends results -

15:00 Blackpool 0 - 1 Rotherham
15:00 Bradford 4 - 2 Gillingham
15:00 Brighton 2 - 2 Brentford
15:00 Cheltenham 0 - 1 Port Vale
15:00 Chesterfield 5 - 1 Millwall
15:00 Doncaster 0 - 0 Tranmere
15:00 Huddersfield 2 - 1 Bristol City
15:00 Leyton Orient 3 - 2 Bournemth
15:00 N'hampton 0 - 1 Nottm Forest
15:00 Oldham 1 - 0 Swansea
15:00 Scunthorpe 2 - 2 Crewe
15:00 Yeovil 2 - 1 Carlisle

Forest and Port Vale still maintain their 100% records whilst Rotherham finally have got off the mark on -7 points. Millwall's poor start hit the floor with 5-1 defeat!

Meanwhile Forest have looked to strengthen their attack and are interested in Julian Agogo from Bristol Rovers, Forest surely look certainties for the Championship next season.

Yeah Forest have also missed a penalty in each of their 3 league games, i think Jack Lester has taken each one. I think they should practice them in training. Still a very good start for them. Agogo will be a decent signing and they will need him with Tyson out for 3/4 months.

COME ON FOREST. forest are my second team, but I've only ever went to see them play 4 times. First time was against Liverpool, where it was a 2,2 draw, then palace, the stoke, then Bristol city last season, which were all 1,1 draws.

They have to win the league this year!
