Must be a statistical first?

Reading on Tuesday will mean that we will have played the league leaders in three of our first four home matches. Can't imagine that this has ever happened before in any league?

Yes and also we play Hull next sunday who are in 3rd at the moment ! Both will be good tests and I am hoping that we can get off the mark with an away win V Hull.

at the moment there seems to be an odd thing where i dont believe a team that has topped the championship this season has won their next game.

millwall topped the league & lost to us
blackburn topped the league & lost their next 2 including us
We topped the league & drew last night
Reading topped the league ?????

Also played top of the league Fulham in our last home league game of last season. So Tuesday will make it 4 consecutive home games where we have come up against top of the league. Can't happen often.
