Great start for Hull after going down 1-0 to Fulham, they managed to sneak a win - 2-1.

WBA did well to hold off Arsenal and only lose 1-0, but Arsenal should have scored more.

And Stoke...well, no idea what happened there. Were 3-0 down at HT and got a goal back, but the game finished 3-1 Bolton.

Great start for Hull. They have got as many wins as Derby last season already. Well done!
That's nice to see since I want to root a bit for Hull this season. For random reasons they have a famous double letter too!

Stoke have beaten Aston Villa 3-2.
Hull got a 1-1 at Blackburn and WBA lost 1-2 to Everton so there's already 2 promoted clubs who have one a game during the first two matchdays. WBA had the worst start of all but to be they had very hard opponents to face.

WBA got a point at Bolton today, Stoke almost got a point at Boro and Hull learned their first lesson today. Hull 0 Wigan 5. Shocker. :blink:

Hardly a shocker mate, the game is on Match of the Day now and Hull were dire, some good finishing by Wigan still.

After 3 matches Hull have got 4 points, Stoke have 3 and West Brom has 1. West Brom had the toughest opponents out of these three so it's hardly a surprise to see them with just one point.
Howver, in my opinion all three clubs have shown that they have some sort of potential to get points at this level.
One day or another they will get spanked as Hull already suffered but early into the season I'm sure there's no new Derby among the newbies this season.

It's only the start, but I don't think any of them are going to be as bad as Derby, hell, Hull are half way to beating them.

Still, I think Hull were pretty poor against Wigan and they will need to up their game to have a hope in surviving, play like that against the big sides, your goal difference is going to take time to recover.
