Sunderland took advantage of defeats for West Bromwich Albion and Blackburn to climb to the top of the Championship after a 2-0 win over Derby.

- Canaries benefit from two errors in 3-2 away victory
- Sunderland miss chance to go top after loss at Watford
Johannes Hoff Thorup backed calls for the introduction of VAR in the Championship despite seeing his Norwich City side benefit from two major errors in a 3-2 victory at Derby.
A hat-trick from Borja Sainz featured two goals in which the ball clearly went out of play in the build-up. Defeated manager Paul Warne insisted he is still against the video assistant referee system due to the game becoming “more and more complicated”, but Thorup said the second tier “needs VAR”.

- Romaine Mundle scores third as Black Cats win 3-1
- West Brom into top two with 1-0 win over Swansea
Sunderland continued their perfect start to the Championship season with a 3-1 win over Portsmouth. The Black Cats have a 100 per cent record and, despite conceding for the first time in almost seven hours in stoppage time, they cruised to victory on the south coast. Zak Swanson’s calamitous own goal, Alan Browne’s close-range effort and Romaine Mundle’s fine end to a counterattack continued Sunderland’s best start to a season for 99 years – where they also began with a quartet of victories.
West Brom climbed into the top two by continuing their unbeaten start to the season with a 1-0 win against Swansea at The Hawthorns. Jayson Molumby’s first goal for 16 months gave Albion a deserved lead in the first minute of time added on at the end of the first half. Carlos Corberán’s side dominated that first period and could easily have been four goals to the good. But it was a different story after the break as Swansea created several chances.

Who needs a summer break? Little more than two weeks have passed since Jean-Philippe Mateta scored in the Olympic Games final for France and the Crystal Palace striker picked up where he left off in the previous campaign by registering his first two goals of the new season in what proved eventually to be a comfortable win against Norwich.
Mateta’s tally of 16 last season was the most by a Palace player since a certain Andy Johnson 20 years ago but, with the expected arrival of Eddie Nketiah from Arsenal for £30m, he could face a potential threat to his status as Oliver Glasner’s preferred leading man. After laying on Daichi Kamada for the opener in a blistering start by the hosts, the 27‑year‑old found the net twice in the space of a few second-half minutes – the first an outstanding volley – before Eberechi Eze added a fourth to see off Norwich’s spirited challenge.

Often the object of criticism and abuse from supporters, the cookery writer enjoyed a rollercoaster ride on and off the field
In the end of an era for the club, and perhaps for English football too, Norwich City announced the departure of Delia Smith in a manner consistent with modern times.
The news was broken online via a statement entitled “Norfolk Holdings reaches agreement to enable majority control of Norwich City”. The seven paragraphs that followed addressed “the creation of non-voting preference shares”, their subsequent conversion into “ordinary” shares and an application for a “rule 9 waiver by the Takeover Panel”. Any mention of Smith and her husband and co-owner, Michael Wynn-Jones, came in passing.

Norwich defender Kellen Fisher signs a new four-year contract with the option of an additional year.
Norwich City have just had a bid to bring Leeds United player Robert Snodgrass to Carrow Road as Neil Warnock last night dashed all hopes of the Canaries signing the talented winger. Manager Chris Hughton is said to be extremely disappointed with the decision as he has been a firm fan of the player for some time but still hold hope that a deal can be struck between the two sides before the start of the season.
Norwich striker Chris Martin and his agent have both stated today that the striker would prefer to stay with the canaries amid rumours the player is surplus to requirements at Carrow Road. The twenty three year old found holding down a regular spot extremely difficult last year and then was loaned out to Crystal palace shortly afterwards but the player has now committed to the club and states he is willing to work for his place which will be great news for Norwich City fans.
Birmingham City defender Curtis Davies is another target for Hughton this summer as he has long been admirer of the young defender after he has made it clear he would like to move on from the Blues. The player is still under contract to Birmingham until 2014 after he arrived at the club from Aston Villa in early 2011 and it is thought the Blues will be holding out for a large transfer fee for the player as they have no intention of losing one of their best defenders for less than his market value.
