Winning Start For Smith

Brentford’s Championship season continued with a win against MK Dons at Griffin Park on Saturday, a two-nil win saw Dean Smith began he reign as Bees boss with a win!

The lead was secure when Alan Judge and Jake Bidwell combined to create an opening for Lasse Vibe (20) who was able to head home, with his sixth-goals of the season taken into the break.

Only the woodwork prevented the scoreline from growing with Judge, Sergi Canos and Vibe all striking the frame of the goal before Judge (71) made sure of the points when he was able to volley home.

Looking at these results the stand out ones have to be the wins for Huddersfield, Brighton and Preston.

A first win for Huddersfield under new boss David Wagner was secured at St Andrew’s when Town beat Birmingham, who dropped out of the top six, two-nil to themselves move out of the Championship relegation zone.

The Brighton win, which sees them retain the lead in the Championship, over Charlton wasn’t a surprise but with the Seagulls two-nil down in the second half on that note it was! This fightback saw them score twice in the final five-minutes to complete the comeback to win three-two at the Amex Stadium.

Burnley’s unbeaten run was ended by Lancashire rivals Preston with the Lilywhites, causing what must be viewed as a surprise win, earning the points against the Clarets with them going away from Turf Moor with a two-nil win.
