Birmingham 0 Everton 2
Wigan 2 Wolves 0
Manchester United missed the opportunity to close the gap on Barclays Premier League leaders Chelsea after being held to a goalless draw by Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
The match was delayed for 20 minutes because of a burst pipe in the visitors' dressing room and it appeared to affect Sir Alex Ferguson's side more as when the match finally kicked off they began on the back foot.
Steed Malbranque should have put the Black Cats ahead early on from eight yards out but failed to beat Edwin van der Sar, who saved low down.
Just before the break Bolo Zenden hit a post but United came back stronger in the second half and Dimitar Berbatov, coming on for Michael Owen, had a goal rightly disallowed for offside.
Sunderland almost took the lead when Malbranque's shot deflected up off Rio Ferdinand but looped just over the crossbar as the hosts were more than worthy of a point.
The result meant United, who could have gone level on points with Chelsea, are now two behind with Carlo Ancelotti's side playing Arsenal on Sunday.
Summer signing Rafael van der Vaart starred for Tottenham, scoring twice as the hosts came from behind to beat Aston Villa 2-1.
The visitors took the lead in the 16th minute as striker Emile Heskey, who went off injured just before half-time, won the ball close to the byline and picked out Marc Albrighton, who converted from close range.
Van Der Vaart levelled things up from Peter Crouch's header just before half-time and he should have put his side in front shortly after the interval but shot wide from seven yards.
However, he made up for that miss in the 75th minute after benefiting from another Crouch header.
Jon Walters' first Premier League goal lifted Stoke up to seventh in the table after a 1-0 win over Blackburn.
The summer signing from Ipswich latched on to Matt Etherington's through-ball to shoot past Paul Robinson in the 48th minute.
Rovers' goalkeeper kept them in the game by denying Etherington soon after but his side could not force an equaliser.
Everton ended Birmingham's record-equalling 18-match unbeaten league record at St Andrews thanks to an own goal from Roger Johnson and a Tim Cahill header.
Johnson turned Leon Osman's 54th-minute cross past Ben Foster under pressure from Cahill, who then headed in Leighton Baines' cross late on.
Everton's win, their first of the season, was doubly pleasing as it dropped Merseyside rivals Liverpool, who play Blackpool on Sunday, into the bottom three.
Frederic Piquionne salvaged a point for West Ham as his 51st-minute header from Victor Obinna's cross earned a 1-1 draw at home to Fulham.
United States striker Clint Dempsey, whose shot embarrassed Robert Green when the two met at the World Cup this summer, had put the visitors ahead when he volleyed past the West Ham goalkeeper just after the half-hour.
Wigan secured their first home league win of the season as they beat 10-man Wolves 2-0 at the DW Stadium.
Karl Henry was sent off in only the 11th minute for a late tackle on Jordi Gomez, who eventually made the breakthrough with an unstoppable free-kick midway through the second half from the edge of the penalty area.
Hugo Rodallega clinched victory with five minutes to go as Wolves slipped into the bottom three after a fourth successive defeat.
Bolton missed the chance to move above opponents West Brom and into sixth after losing a lead at The Hawthorns.
Johan Elmander scored his fourth goal of the season in the 64th minute from Kevin Davies' lay-off.
Martin Petrov should have put the result beyond doubt but fired wide with only Scott Carson to beat and it proved costly as James Morrison's header equalised 12 minutes from time.

City of Manchester Stadium
Directions & Car Parking
The stadium is located in the North East of Manchester.
From the South M6:
Leave the M6 at Junction 19 and follow the A556 towards Stockport and then join the M56 going towards Stockport. Continue onto the M60 passing Stockport and heading on towards Ashton Under Lyne. Leave the M60 at Junction 23 and take the A635 towards Manchester. Branch off onto the A662 (Ashton New Road) towards Droylsden/Manchester. Stay on the A662 for around three miles and you will reach the Stadium on your right.
From The M62:
Leave the M62 at Junction 18 and then join the M60 Ashton Under Lyne. Leave the M60 at Junction 23 and take the A635 towards Manchester. Branch off onto the A662 (Ashton New Road) towards Droylsden/Manchester. Stay on the A662 for around three miles and you will reach the Stadium on your right.
Whilst Iain Macintosh informs me; 'I find this an easier route to the ground; Leave the M60 at Junction 24 and take the A57 (Hyde Road) towards Manchester. Turn right onto the A6010 (Pottery Lane). There are quite a number of unofficial car parks on both sides of Pottery Lane, costing around �5 per car. Pottery Lane becomes the Alan Turing Way and goes right past the stadium on your left'.
Car Parking:
There is some parking available at the stadium itself which costs �5 per car. The East Car Park is nearest to the away entrance. Please be aware that there is a residents only parking scheme in place in the streets near to the ground, which extends about a mile out from the stadium. So if you want to street park, it means parking further away and then walking to the stadium. Some unofficial car parks have sprung up mostly charging around £5 per car. Terry Ireland a visiting Chelsea fan adds; 'Plenty of car parking spaces were available when we arrived at the stadium around two hours before kick off. However, getting out after the game was a joke. It's a little like a free for all and took us nearly an hour to exit the car park and be on our way. Meanwhile the unofficial car parks, all but 400 yards away, had cleared, been locked-up and were long gone by the time we passed them on our way home. And they cost the same to park!'
Peter Llewellyn informs me; 'The road links are busy even on non-match days so make sure you allow plenty of time. The stadium is part of Sportcity so car users should follow the brown Sportcity signs until near the stadium'.
By Train
The closest train station is Ashburys which is a short five minute train ride away from Manchester Piccadilly Station. The stadium is about a 15 minute walk away from Ashburys station. As you come out of the station turn left and after proceeding up the road you will come to the stadium on your left.
Otherwise if you have time on your hands then you can embark on the 20/25 minute walk from Piccadilly Station to the stadium. At the bottom of the main station approach turn right into Ducie Street. At the end of the road turn right onto Great Ancoats Street. Cross over the road, then the canal and turn left into Pollard Street - this is well marked as a walking route to "Sportcity". Continue straight along Pollard Street which leads onto the A662 Ashton New Road and you will come to the stadium on your left.
A shorter route from the station is to use the new exit to Fairfield Street (the taxi rank). As you come off the platforms, it’s in the left hand corner of the main concourse. Lifts or escalators down. (There’s also an exit from the little concourse off the bridge near platforms 13/14.) At the street exit head toward the railway over bridge, under that, then left again under the railway (Travis Street continuing into Adair Street), left at the end and right into Pollard Street (then as above).
Alternatively you can get a taxi from Piccadilly Station (around £4.50) or a bus from Piccadilly Gardens - Go down the main approach from the station, then along London Road to Piccadilly Gardens; normal service and special matchday buses leave from the right hand side of the square (between Lever Street and Oldham Street) - £1 each way. 216 and 217 the main service buses, but 185, 186, 230, 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236, 237, X36 and X37 also go from the city centre to the stadium (and 53 and 54 from the city's ring road). On the return, the special buses leave from Ashton New Road just across from the away end.
Away Fans
Away fans are located in one side of the South Stand at one end of the ground, in both the upper and lower tiers, where up to 3,000 fans can be accommodated (4,500 for cup games). The view of the action is pretty impressive although the leg room is a little tight. The facilities are also pretty good with spacious concourses, large plasma flat television screens showing the game and a good selection of food on offer.
Atmosphere within the stadium is a bit 'hit and miss' at times. I did hear though on my last visit one very good rendition of the Man City fans anthem 'Blue Moon'. My only real complaint was the lack of distance between the home and away supporters. Only a few seats and a row of stewards stood in-between the two sets of fans, which led to a lot of unpleasant baiting between the two. And of course it was always the away fans who were adjudged to be causing the problems by the stewards (although I'm sure that if I visited on another occasion I probably would have seen the same Man City fans baiting in the same manner) and this led a number of away fans on my visit being escorted out of the stadium. After the game has finished fans are kept apart immediately outside via a large fence which is erected by the Police, which seems to lead to a lot of exchanges of unpleasant abuse. Some away fans have suggested that it may be best to keep colours covered on making your way back to your transport. It is also worth noting that entrance to the stadium is gained by placing your ticket into an electronic reader, which normally causes confusion to some fans. Please note that you are likely to be searched by stewards at the turnstile entrance.
Where To Drink
There are not a great deal of pubs around the stadium, and the few available are predominantly for home support. However, 'The Stanley' (aka Sports Bar) pub does let in away fans in small numbers. It is about a ten minute walk away from the stadium, just set back from the main A6010 (Pottery Lane) , going towards Ashburys train station. The easiest way to find it is to locate the large Asda store behind one side of the stadium (there is also a McDonalds outlet next door to the store, plus there is a cafe located inside it) and on facing the superstore turn right and proceed down the main road, you will come to the pub on the left. It does cost £1 for adults to enter the pub, (they even stamp your hand as if you were entering a night club) but children are at least admitted free. Inside there is a large screen showing SKY Sports, good service and a good mix of home and away support.
Alan Finneran informs me; 'I would recommend the Townley on Albert Street, which is only a five minute walk away from the stadium. The pub has a good atmopshere and as long as away fans arrive early and are discrete (i.e. no colours) then they should be okay. Also the Manchester City Supporters Club have their own City Social bar opposite the North Stand. I have seen opposition supporters in there now and again, so if you are a member of your own team's supporters club, then your branch secretary may be able to arrange a visit to the Social bar in advance'.
Dave Clinton adds; 'If you want a pint beforehand then it is probably best to drink in the city centre. My tip, would be to head to the Printworks in Manchester, near Victoria station. There is a connecting tram service from Piccadilly. There are loads of pubs at the Printworks, with plenty of choice of food. The pubs around Piccadilly itself are not too clever. However Deansgate or around the Town Hall, would be a good place to head for if you are taking in the City centre. This is about a 30 minute walk away from the stadium'. A taxi to the ground would then cost in the region of £7.
Chris Fogarty warns; 'away fans should avoid the Queen Victoria pub at the bottom of Grey Mare Lane'. Also Mary D's on Grey Mare Lane is also not recommended for away supporters as well as pubs on Ashton New Road (both these roads are in the area behind the away end of the stadium). Otherwise alcohol is available inside the stadium (Singha £3.50, Fosters £3.20, Strongbow £3.20, John Smiths bitter £3) .
