IT wasn't quite an ugly win but the Ipswich Knights made hard work of their second victory of the Division 1 season. A goal in injury time by late replacement Phil Brown gave the Knights a crucial 2-1 success over Grange Thistle at Lanham Park.

Arsenal went top of the Premier League when they beat West Ham United 2-0 with goals from Denilson and Cesc Fabregas on Saturday despite playing for more than half the match at the Emirates with 10 men. Arsenal moved on to 67 points with seven matches to play to lead the standings for the first time since January and keep the pressure on Manchester United and Chelsea, who played their weekend matches yesterday. Tottenham Hotspur maintained their push for fourth place and a possible Champions League be  

As a student in London in the Seventies, I took to following Fulham because I liked underdogs and loved the stroll along the Thames to Craven Cottage. And John Mitchell. I was there at Maine Road (having escaped a chasing around Moss Side by Birmingham City supporters) the night that 'Mitch' scored the last-gasp goal to put Fulham, a then Second Division side, into the 1975 FA Cup final.  

Ten-man Arsenal confirmed their status as the Comeback Kids of the title race with a 2-0 win over West Ham to send them top of the table. Having trailed leaders Chelsea by NINE points just a month ago, the Gunners have strung together six wins in a row to knock the Blues temporarily off their perch. Arsenal took an early lead against the Hammers thanks to Denilson's drive, and even though Thomas Vermaelen saw a straight red for a foul on Franco, Manuel Almunia saved Alessandro Diamanti's penalty, and

It surprised me that Hull parted company with Phil Brown a few days after the game because I felt his team showed a 'give it all' attitude against us , only losing in the last seconds of the game against one of the top teams.   -Arsene Wenger

P ortsmouth substitute Nwankwo Kanu capped a flurry of late drama with a last-gasp winner to deny fellow relegation strugglers Hull a point. Caleb Folan drew first blood for Hull when he redirected Craig Fagan's long-range effort from six yards. Tommy Smith equalised from close range, but Folan struck on the counter with 17 minutes left to restore Hull's lead.

Many presumed that another defeat for Hull and Brown would have been sacked but having been given a vote of confidence from the board earlier in the day, the Tigers seemed refreshed. However they fell behind just as they were beginning to stamp their authority on the game when Matthew Etherington got in behi
