Wolverhampton Wanderers secured their top flight status with four games to spare after an impressive season in the Championships. Like the recently concluded term where no joiner relegated, the three new joiners would be hoping to stick beyond their first year in the Premier League.
Cardiff City manager Neil Warnock has been nominated for Manager of the Month seeing the impressive start to the new Championship season.
Bluebirds forward Nathaniel Mendez-Laing and Ipswich strikerMartynWaghorn were nominated in the Player of the Month category for the month of August.
Warnock’s nomination came as no surprise after a perfect start to the new campaign. Five victories in as many matches surely would get you named as the lead the Sky Bet Championship log.

He said that he has already identified some players that can strengthen the team and that negotiation will start as soon as the season is officially over.

Cardiff legend Craig Bellamy is drumming support for fellow legend Kevin McNaughton as he is set to get a farewell on Sunday.
