Lee inexplicably punched Brian Howard's swirling cross into his own net midway through the second period to hand the Yorkshire side all three points.

His howler undid all the good work which saw Adrian Boothroyd's men battle back from two goals down to draw level at the break.

Efforts from Howard (31) and Martin Devaney (34) put Simon Davey's men 2-0 ahead and in total control, but Dan Shittu twice (36 and 45) rose highest to haul the visitors back into contention.

Ian Holloway's reign as Leicester boss got off to a fine start as his side cruised past Bristol City 2-0 at Ashton Gate.

Richard Stearman (23) put the visitors ahead before Matty Fryatt (78) sealed the win. Fryatt was dismissed in stoppage time after an ugly challenge but it did little to take the gloss off Holloway's first win in charge.

Holloway's former club Plymouth showed no hangover from his departure as they secured a 1-0 win over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.

Peter Halmosi scored the decisive goal after 24 minutes and despite intense pressure from Bryan Robson's side late on they held on for maximum points.

Glenn Roeder oversaw his first win as Norwich boss as Luke Chadwick (34) and Jamie Cureton (77) netted to seal a 2-0 win over Coventry at Carrow Road.

Two goals from Clinton Morrison helped Crystal Palace to a 2-1 win over 10-man Colchester.

Us defender Pat Baldwin was dismissed after just six minutes for a professional foul and Morrison netted from the resulting free-kick.

Johnnie Jackson (69) pulled the hosts level, but Morrison (74) was on hand to bag the points for Neil Warnock's side.

Stern John's first-half goal (35) handed Southampton a slender 1-0 win over Blackpool, while new Burnley boss Owen Coyle saw his side play out a drab goalless draw with Stoke at Turf Moor.

QPR remain in the bottom three after an uninspiring 0-0 draw at home to Sheffield Wednesday.

In the day's early kick-offs, Paul Parry (33) inspired Cardiff to a 1-0 win over Ipswich, and a Dean Windass brace (4 and 16) fired Hull to a 2-1 win over Humber rivals Scunthorpe, who pulled one back through Jonathan Forte (47).

West Bromwich Albion v Wolverhampton Wanderers

Veteran West Brom striker Kevin Phillips is still suffering with knee ligament damage while James Morrison and Martin Albrechtsen are also on the sidelines.

Morrison was forced off against Coventry with medial ligament damage and Albrechtsen suffered the same injury against Sheffield Wednesday.

Striker Freddy Eastwood is a doubt for Wolves. He trained on Friday morning in a bid to prove his fitness after picking up a knee injury on international duty with Wales. Stephen Elliott could return following a hamstring injury after impressing in the midweek practice match with Aston Villa, while manager Mick McCarthy will also make a late decision on Andy Keogh, who is recovering from minor surgery to repair a hernia.
