All the action from last week.

Concerning matches here are the week`s results:

WBA 3 – 2 Luton

Friday night saw Luton fall down at the Hawthorns. West Brom went 1-0 up before falling 2-1 down thank to goals from Keane and Feeney. Then a late Phillips brace secured the points for the baggies.

Barnsley 0 – 1 Preston
Birmingham P-P Leeds
Cardiff 0 – 1 Southend
Colchester 1 – 1 Leicester
Coventry 2 – 4 C Palace
Derby 1 – 0 Sheff Wed
Hull City 2 – 1 QPR
Norwich 1 – 3 Plymouth
Southampton 0 – 0 Burnley
Stoke 1 – 1 Wolves
Sunderland 1 – 0 Ipswich

Leeds` trip to St.Andrews was postponed because Birmingham had failed to relay their pitch in time. The punishment may be a point`s deduction for the club. However, Birmingham remain top with a game in hand. Cardiff failed to win again, they are now winless in 11 games.
