Chelsea 2 Norwich 3
Not for the first time that season Chelsea failed to take advantage of a lead, and having led 2-0 went down by the odd goal in five to a fighting Norwich side who deserved to stay top of the table. They were at top of the new league with five wins from their first seven games before that day.
Man City 0 Middleborough 1
Gary Flitcroft had a full home debut to forget. The 19 year old Bolton born player put through his own goal in the 42nd minute and it proved to be the only goal of the game. That just about summed up City’s ill luck because they had more of the play. The visitors had now beat City four times that year.
Crystal Palace 2 Oldham 2
Two goal Chris Armstrong became an instant hit with Palace fans on his home debut.
