Birmingham City 2-2 West Ham United: The most memorable moment of a damp first half Blues performance comes early on as the pitch sprinklers accidentally activate to the bemusement of all players
The Irons have warranted a lead and get one in the second half through Frederic Piquionne, tucking away Victor Obinna's precise through-ball
Scott Parker nicks the ball in the middle of the pitch and sets up a West Ham counter-attack, finished by Valon Behrami, to put the Londoners 2-0 up
Despite their good play, West Ham are bottom, and their defence show why, falling asleep at a free-kick for Nikola Zigic to head on and Cameron Jerome to score
Out of nowhere, City are level. Robert Green can only parry Sebastian Larsson's free-kick in to the path of former-West Ham trainee Liam Ridgewell who bags his third league goal of the season
Blackburn Rovers 2-1 Wigan Athletic: It's only 18 miles by road between their grounds but Rovers have the better of the first half with a series of set pieces, though Charles N'Zogbia has a goal ruled out for a foul
Rovers take the lead through Morten Gamst Pederson's free-kick from the right-hand side that looks like a cross at first but replays hint the Norwegian intends a strike on target
Blackburn score a second when Brett Emerton breaks down the right and plays in Jason Roberts but Charles N'Zogbia pulls one back with a majestic left-foot free-kick 25 yards out
Blackpool 2-2 Everton: The two Lancashire teams start the day on the same points and the Seasiders, buoyed by the first home win of the season five days ago, take the lead from Neil Eardley's 25-yard free kick
The Toffees make an instant reply as Yakubu bundles his way to the line and pulls the ball back from the left for Tim Cahill to head in his 50th Premier League goal
Ian Holloway's side are back in front at the start of the second half as Everton miss a handful of chances to clear the ball from their box and David Vaughan punishes them
And the teams end the day level on points when Seamus Coleman, on loan at Blackpool last season, breaks down the right and slides the ball under Matthew Gilks
Fulham 1-1 Aston Villa: With only Nathan Delfouneso available up front, Villa wide players must step up and Marc Albrighton controls a high ball with his right foot before slotting home with his left to put the visitors ahead
Villa are only seconds from a win secured by their first goal in six hours, twenty minutes, of football only for Brede Hangeland to level with nearly the last touch of the game from Danny Murphy's free-kick
Manchester United 2-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers: Owen Hargreaves returns after over two years' struggle with tendonitis only for the England midfielder to be substituted after less than six minutes with a sore hamstring
Wolves are unlucky to fall behind on the stroke of half-time, having bossed the first 45 minutes, when Ji-Sung Park ghosts through the centre of the visitors' defence to tap the ball past Marcus Hahnemann
Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic fail to close down Wolves, allowing ex-United teenager Sylvain Ebanks-Blake to equalise but Park cuts in from the right in injury time to deny the visitors a point
Sunderland 2-0 Stoke City: Steve Bruce gets just the response he wants following his side's recent derby defeat and Darren Bent's withdrawal through injury when Asamoah Gyan scores within the first five minutes
On the balance of play, the Black Cats deserve to double their lead but spurn a chance to do so when Asmir Begovic saves Steed Malbranque's penalty after Jon Walters tugs back Gyan
Somehow, Stoke do not equalise: Lee Cattermole appears to clear the ball off the line with his hand from Kenwyne Jones' header before then appearing to clear the ball from over the line from the resulting corner
It only gets worse for Tony Pulis and Stoke as Ryan Shawcross picks up a second yellow card, leaving out a leg to trip Danny Welbeck, and Gyan gets a second goal from Keiran Richardson's cross
Bolton Wanderers 4-2 Tottenham Hotspur: Of the two potential England target men - Peter Crouch and Kevin Davies - the Bolton man has the better of a scrappy half, capped by his fifth goal in four games against Spurs
Bolton control much of the game as Fabrice Muamba and Gretar Steinsson shut out the visitors, and the big Scandinavian defender gets a goal (only his fourth ever for the Trotters) as Spurs fail to clear a set piece
Matthew Taylor hits the post and Muamba goes close, both having great games alongside Chung-Yong Lee and Stuart Holden, before Davies adds a third from the spot when the Korean winger is brought down
The third goal wakes Spurs from their slumber and full-back Alan Hutton, so often in good positions with no end product in the game, draws a goal back, cutting in to curl the ball inside the far post with his left foot
The win is suddenly less certain than it should be for the Trotters as a defensive clearance drops to Roman Pavlyuchenko, who hammers home the sweetest of left-foot volleys to make it 3-2
William Gallas is nearly put through as Spurs search for an unlikely equaliser only to leave enough space for Davies to exploit with a clever flick on to Martin Petrov who wraps up the three points, sending Bolton fifth
