Diary of the season

  • 31 August 2023: The first month of the new season ends with reigning champions Manchester City top of the Premier League, being the only team with 3 wins from the first 3 fixtures. West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool and Arsenal are also unbeaten at the start of the season with 7 points each, while Brighton & Hove Albion, Aston Villa and Manchester United are all on 6 points. Everton end August bottom of the league with no points or goals, joined in the relegation zone by newly-promoted Luton Town (19th) and Burnley, whose clash at Kenilworth Road was postponed due to renovations to the stadium. The third promoted club, Sheffield United, have also failed to win any points so far this season but remain out of the relegation zone on goal difference. In the Championship, Leicester City are making headway for an automatic return to the top flight and are the only team to have won all 4 games so far. Norwich City, Birmingham City, Southampton and Preston North End are on 10 points, with Ipswich Town holding sixth. The third side relegated from the Premier League last season, Leeds United, are in mid-table. Sheffield Wednesday prop up the table as the only Championship side with no points so far, joined in the relegation zone by fellow Yorkshire clubs Huddersfield Town and Middlesbrough. Another Yorkshire club, Rotherham United, are outside of the relegation zone on goal difference.
  • 30 September 2023: Manchester City remain top of the Premier League at the end of September despite the end of their perfect record in the league, standing a point ahead of Spurs and Arsenal. Liverpool, Villa, Brighton and West Ham United complete the top seven. Sheffield United have dropped to the bottom of the league on goal difference, courtesy of a record-breaking 8-0 home defeat to Newcastle United. Burnley and Bournemouth complete the bottom three. Newly-promoted Ipswich Town lead the Championship at September's end, with Leicester and Preston also contending for automatic promotion. Sunderland, Hull City and Cardiff City are in the play-off places, Norwich City only missing out on goal difference. Sheffield Wednesday remain bottom, Rotherham have dropped into the bottom three, and Middlesbrough have climbed out of the drop zone on goals scored at the expense of Queens Park Rangers.
  • 31 October 2023: October ends with Spurs top of the Premier League, 2 points clear of Arsenal and Manchester City. Liverpool and Villa are the other two teams in the Champions League hunt, with Newcastle and Brighton 5 points behind Villa. Sheffield United, the only team in the top four divisions without a league win, prop up the Premier League. Bournemouth have climbed clear of the relegation zone at the expense of Luton Town, but Burnley remain in the relegation zone. Leicester now lead the Championship, 5 points clear of Ipswich; for their part, Ipswich are 9 points clear of third-placed Leeds with a game in hand and look well-placed for a second consecutive promotion. Cardiff are the only team to remain in the play-off zone from September, now joined by Southampton and West Bromwich Albion. Rotherham, QPR and Sheffield Wednesday remain in the relegation zone.

  150. ^ BREAKING NEWS Think the time has finally come to Hang up the boots. Thankyou to @theboroofficial , @officialbwfc @darlingtonfootballclub and @england for having me I loved every minute of playing for you but I won’t bore you with too many sentiments and tell you the truth instead. My body hurts, I pull my calves walking down the stairs, I nearly pull my thigh everytime I play footy with my 7 year old and I’m scared to get over jogging pace incase my hammy pops. I pick the kids toys up off the floor and my back goes, I have love handles and my belly is expanding, I would rather eat a fry up or a nice Chinese instead of going to training and a few pints takes 5 days to get over. It’s been one a hell of a ride though, capped at every level playing for England and a couple of bench appearances for the senior team and as you know I’ve had a shower with @davidbeckham and @johnterry.26 follows me on Instagram so I’m very happy with my career. While you’re here though follow @w2footballacademy for my next adventure. CHEERS
