Chopra stars on opening day

Bad day at the farm for the Wurzels as the Tractor Boys cultivate three points at Ashton Gate. So the Championship is off and running. Eleven games played and the shocks came with Ipswich battering Bristol City by three goals to nil, Michael Chopra scoring twice and JET and Mark Kennedy starting. Also a mauling for Leeds at Southampton. The home side rampant before Leeds grabbed a last kick consolation. That match ended 3 - 1 to Saints. There was joy for the other two promoted sides with Peterborough beating Crystal Palace and Brighton christened their new stadium with a win over Doncaster. The Seagulls winner scored in injury time by Will Buckley. Now you've seen the rest it's time for the best. West Ham v Cardiff, Sunday 1:00pm.
