Tammy Abraham nearing Villa loan
Josh Odomah joins Wendies on loan
Chris Martin joins Hull on loan
Tommy Elphick joins Hull
Michael Hector to Wendies on loan as well.
Birmingham 0-0 QPR
Brentford 2-1 Forest (Natalie Sawyer called it a "victory for football").
Hull 1-2 Derby (up to 4th now is Frank)
Reading 1-2 Sheffield Weds
Sheffield Utd 4-1 Villa (considering the funds Bruce has had at Villa he has done a crap job)
Preston 2-2 Bolton
West Brom 2-1 Stoke (Media darling like Bruce struggling)
Wigan 1-0 Rotherham
Ten men Swansea (for 85 minutes) fight back from 1-0 down to win 2-1 with McBurnnie grabbing the winner in the last five minutes, the Swans move up into the top six
Bruce is one of those dinosaurs overrated by his mates in the media because he "knows the league", yet his success at Hull was entirely down to parachute payments. That said, Villa lost their entire spine of Johnstone, Terry, Snodgrass and Grabban, so they won't be as good this season.
Birmingham City have loaned goalkeeper David Stockdale to Southend United on a rolling seven-day deal after receiving emergency dispensation to add cover
The Shrimpers are without the suspended Mark Oxley for three games, Ted Smith is out with a shoulder injury, with Nathan Bishop the only fit custodian.

Very interesting that despite all the clamour for Stockdale to join Leeds that no other championship side wanted him.

The respective clubs can keep the likes of Forestieri & Stockdale imo, I doubt Bielsa would want this pair anywhere near ER going going by his expectations & standards of the players he enjoys working with!

I’m hearing rumours that Birmingham could be facing a 12 point deduction, something to do with sustainability and the deduction would be immediate
If that is the case Rich, relegation time & bye bye Garry Monk

Both players admitted to misconduct charges, with Forestieri fined £25,000 and Mellis given a £1,500 fine.
Wednesday have been fined £20,000 and Mansfield were fined £3,000 in relation to the brawl after the final whistle.
The Owls "vehemently refuted" accusations that Stags captain Krystian Pearce had been racially abused.
That means he'll be back to face us, great he'll raise his game even more than usual.

Because we have to sign everyone who supports Leeds apparently.
