Carabao Cup clockwatch: Birmingham v Fulham, Everton v ...
Ed Aarons saw Palace recover their rhythm with a first win of the season.
Jamie Jackson was at Goodison to see Sean Dyche’s worries eased – for now.
William Morgan gets in touch: “The tackle on new Brighton boy, Matt O’Reilly was nowt short of an abomination. Poor fella, three minutes in and knacked by Williams, nasty, nasty tackle.”
Jay Williams was the defender who made the tackle. It was hefty and late, late, late.

That’s it at Selhurst, too. Full-time: Crystal Palace winning 4-0 against Norwich.
Full-time at Birmingham, who lost 2-0 to Fulham, who survived making 11 changes. Jay Stansfield did the danger against the club he spent time on loan. He’s one to watch.
They’re playing seven extra minutes at St Andrews, where Fulham are leading 2-0. Not long to go at Selhurst, either.
The star man completes the rout. Nice win for Oliver Glasner after a tough start to the season. It was a solo goal, and he just shot ahead of anyone else’s anticipation. They can’t let him go, surely. Such a wonderful player.
The two clubs meet on Friday night, Kenneth Paal slotting the decisive kick. Cauley Woodrow and Tahith Chong missed for the Hatters.
Huge celebrations in Cumbria, and that’s the shock result of the night. Barrow get to this stage of the competition for the first time since 1968

Goal! Grimsby 1-5 Sheff Wed (Pol Valentin 90)
Studs up against Brighton and off he goes.
The midfielder completes a satisfying evening for Steve Cooper.
Eze was like Guehi a surprise selection considering transfer interest but he sets up the hitman supreme. Norwich fans eyeing the long trip home.
Billy Sharp, once the 21st century’s most prolific striker in English football – Harry Kane took that accolade – is making himself busy at Goodison for Donny.
Brighton’s other Irish striker, and one who Roberto de Zerbi rated, delivers a cool finish for his first senior goal. Another Brighton youngster!
Goal! Harrogate 0-5 Preston 5 (Milutin Osmajic 83, hat-trick)
A lovely finish to complete that treble.
From six yards, the big defender nods down and Fabian Hurzeler can do no wrong. He’s 31, you know. When will Chelsea make their move?
The games between Barrow and Derby – at 0-0 and QPR v Luton – 1-1 –are going to penalties.
Goal! Grimsby 1-4 Sheff Wed (Callum Paterson 81)
This time, the big striker, who has worked hard all evening, gets on the scoresheet. Relief for Sean Dyche.
Goal! Blackburn 1-2 Blackpool (Hayden Coulson 77)
A real comeback from a team under the interim management of Richard Keogh.
The supplier of the first scores the second with such a neat finish, a player in the form of his life after being so good at the Olympics.
Goal! Walsall 3-2 Huddersfield (Michal Helik Og 77)
The comeback complete against the ten men.
Remember: the games level at full-time go to penalties. A few remain in the balance.
Goal! Blackburn 1-1 Blackpool (Jake Beesley 72)
Goal! Watford 2-0 Plymouth (Mileta Rajovic 72)
He looks the player who can make a difference, the former Sheffield United man.
Steve Cooper’s first win secured by the long-serving midfielder.
Goal! Walsall 2-2 Huddersfield (Nathan Lowe 70)
Goal! Grimsby 1-3 Sheff Wed (Callum Paterson 72)
Doncaster are pushing on and the home fires are beginning to groan at Goodison. Dear Ashley Young made a mistake and was booked after 30 seconds to follow his red on opening day, but the League Two club can’t take advantage.
For Everton, still leading Doncaster 1-0, Beto has just missed a header that was going begging. It was a lovely cross from the lively Iliman Ndiaye.
Goal! Shrewsbury 0-2 Bolton (Dion Charles 65)
Goal! Walsall 1-2 Huddersfield (Nathan Lowe 63)
The ten men may be under pressure for the conclusion to that game. Lowe had missed a penalty but now Walsall are back in it.
Remember the names: Lewis Koumas and Million Manhoef, who both scored in Stoke’s biggest away win in 70 years.
My colleague Tom Davies on the Leyton Orient haters, such as they are: “Southend and Orient have traditionally had beef over the years, though mutual sympathy at our clubs’ respective ownership crises in the past decade has muted it somewhat. Stevenage seemed to get very excited at playing us when Steve Evans was in charge.”
Goal! Coventry 1-0 (Brandon Thomas-Asante 57) Oxford Utd
Goal! Walsall 0-2 Huddersfield (Joshua Ruffels 53)
Goal! Barnsley 1-0 (Max Watters 52) Sheff Utd
