Hull City got their first win under Grant McCann against Swansea City. Hull Daily Mail writer Jonty gives the lowdown on how he's fared as the Tigers' new boss. The pundits also discuss why a Premier League didn't take a punt on Jarrod Bowen this summer.

Cardiff City left it late to open their Championship account against Luton Town. What they want to know is, why have they let go off Bobby Reid? The trio also discuss Isaac Vassell's transfer and whether he can make a telling impact for the Bluebirds.

Preston bounced back to beat Wigan. Elliott has some strong words for their summer recruitment and accuses the Lillywhites' board of short-changing Alex Neil. They also discuss whether Preston can finish in the top six, without a 20-goal-a-season striker.
