Championship football returned to our screens this weekend - and boy was it back with a bang!
Here, we round-up the winners and losers from another entertaining and action-packed weekend in the second tier. Scroll down and click through the pages to see who shone and struggled in Championship this weekend...
Pablo Hernandez
Phillips had luck on his side during West Broms opening day win at Nottingham Forest. Instead of finding the head of his teammate, the wingers cross dipped over Aro Muric. Brutal, given it proved to the winner in a 2-1 victory.
Welcome back to the Championship, joked Warnock himself. While he didnt entirely blame the referee for the defeat, he was left unhappy by him. Oh, how we have missed his entertaining post-match press conferences.
If you havent seen Eberechi Ezes winner against Stoke City, then look it up now. A combination of nine successive passes set Eze away, who produced a fine solo run to finish from the edge of the box.
Credit should probably go to Barnsley for an impeccable display, however given Fulham were among the pre-season favourites to be promoted, a defeat on the opening day of the season isnt what new boss Scott Parker had hoped for.
