Sorry I didn't look at this result too closely, I was too busy basking in Tigers glory.
But it's always good to remember that whenever Tigers disappoint me, Spurs are there just waiting to disappoint me even further.

It's almost a carbon copy of how they started last year. At 19, Ajala looks like he'll be a star for the Hammers.

Manchester City get things done, 4-1 over Crystal Place
Erling Haaland and Rayan Cherki both scored twice as Manchester City made it two Premier League wins out of two under Enzo Maresca - and left Crystal Palace without a point after back-to-back defeats.
Haaland, last season's leading scorer with 27 league goals, opened his account for the season to set City on their way with a guided header after being picked out by Antoine Semenyo in the 17th minute.
In an entertaining game, Cherki doubled the lead with a lovely 54th-minute finish after dancing past a couple of challenges, before Palace pulled one back two minutes later when Gianluigi Donnarumma became the first City keeper to score a Premier League own goal since Costel Pantilimon in December 2013.

Liverpool and Nottingham Forest finish all tied up at 2 all.
Victor Munoz marked his full debut with a goal to rescue a Premier League point for Liverpool at home to Nottingham Forest.
The Spain winger lashed homed from Florian Wirtz's pass to level for Andoni Iraola's side with eight minutes remaining after Morgan Gibbs-White's penalty had put the visitors on course for three points.
Dan Ndoye had given Forest the lead midway through the first half, slotting home from Gibbs-White's pass after a simple long ball over the top took out the Liverpool defence.
Liverpool drew level on the hour mark when Alexander Isak tapped into an empty net from Cody Gakpo's pinpoint low cross.
But with Liverpool hoping to push on to find a winner, goalkeeper Alisson was adjudged to have brought down Neco Williams after a quick throw-in from Forest's new record signing Liam Delap.
The home side were furious with the decision but it was upheld and Gibbs-White sent Alisson the wrong way from the spot.
But, as they did at Newcastle last weekend, Liverpool battled back and Munoz thumped the ball home off the crossbar to equalise.
Neither side could find a winner, though, leaving both Iraola and Oliver Glasner without a win since taking over their respective sides in the summer.

West Ham currently 19th after drawing with Watford 1 all
Pretty depressing start to the season as far as I'm concerned

Everton and Bournemouth end up 1 all in a game of chances.
Everton captain James Tarkowski struck a 91st-minute equaliser as the Toffees denied Bournemouth victory at Vitality Stadium.
It looked like Bournemouth were heading for a win in new boss Marco Rose's first home game in charge after Alex Scott's first-half goal.
But Tarkowski thumped home the leveller, capitalising on confusion inside the Bournemouth box following a corner.
Scott's deflected effort from the edge of the box in the 41st minute, after some fine work from Evanilson on the right wing, had put the Cherries in front.
Up until the opener, it was Everton who had created the better of chances in an action-packed first half.
The visitors had gone close through a Jarrad Branthwaite header in the 10th minute, while Thierno Barry failed to turn in a rebound after Tyrique George's initial effort was saved by Djordje Petrovic.
But it was Bournemouth who found a way through first. Evanilson chased a long ball forward, then beat James Tarkowski and picked out Scott to score.
Everton went close to an equaliser before half-time but Barry could only hit the side-netting following a quick break, while the in-form striker was also denied by Petrovic from close range early in the second half.
David Moyes' side then had appeals for a penalty turned down by referee Chris Kavanagh when Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall went down in the box after making contact with James Hill.
But they finally scored the equaliser after both Marcus Tavernier and Ryan Christie failed to clear Hayden Hackney's corner and the ball fell for skipper Tarkowski to rescue a point.

Hull City just love the Premier League, this time round.
They remain undefeated after 2 matches, defeating fellow promoted side Coventry 1-0 overnight.
Liam Millar's late goal at fellow promoted side Coventry City ensured Hull maintained a 100% record on their return to the Premier League.
It proved to be a cruel outcome for Frank Lampard's Coventry, who exhibited plenty of endeavour and were largely in the ascendency during a contest that generally lacked attacking quality.
That was until Canada winger Millar was played through on goal by Mohamed Belloumi in the 82nd minute, firing a decisive finish past home goalkeeper Carl Rushworth.

Newcastle come over Spurs in the 2nd half winning 2-0.
Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle claimed his first Premier League victory with goals from Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa at Tottenham Hotspur - who lost their second league game this season.
There had not been a goalless draw between these clubs since the top flight was rebranded as the Premier League in 1992, and Elanga broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute.
New signing Nico Gonzalez, making his Magpies debut following his Β£52m move from Manchester City, started the move with a superb crossfield pass to Amar Dedic who headed the ball into Elanga's path.
The Swede, who also scored in the Magpies' 2-2 draw with Liverpool on Sunday, created space away from ex-Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali, spun and shot at goal, with the ball going in off the post.
Newcastle doubled their lead 10 minutes later when Wissa acrobatically hooked the ball into the net after Nick Woltemade headed a corner towards the striker.
Tottenham striker Omar Marmoush, making his debut on loan from Manchester City, had one of the best chances when it was 0-0, but from the side of the six-yard box could only sidefoot wide unmarked.
Italy midfielder Tonali played against Newcastle for the first time since becoming Spurs' record signing in a Β£100m move in the summer after three years with the Magpies.
He was booed relentlessly by the away supporters, who took great delight in waving him off the pitch when he was substituted for Dominic Solanke with Newcastle 2-0 up.
The three points lifts Newcastle fourth in the table, while Tottenham are yet to score a league goal this season and are bottom.

Will Lankshear scored twice as part of Middlesbrough beating West Bromwich Albion 3-1 at the Riverside Stadium.
The in-form striker took his tally to six goals in five matches since being signed from Tottenham this summer.
Lankshear opened the scoring early in the second half - despite clearly being offside - and restored the hosts' lead after Jimmy-Jay Morgan's equaliser. The fit-again Alfie Jones added a late third for Kim Hellberg's side.
It ended Albion's unbeaten start to the Championship season and was their sixth consecutive defeat against Boro.

The Hammers and Watford share the points in a game of chances, the final score being 1-1.
Watford withstood huge second half pressure from West Ham to maintain their unbeaten start to the Championship season and keep the Hammers winless.
The Hornets took the lead with a lovely solo effort from Amin Nabizada - his second goal of the new campaign.
West Ham were then gifted an equaliser following a mistake from defender Kevin Keben resulting in an own goal by Mattie Pollock.
The Hammers streamed forward in the second half with chances for Jarrod Bowen, the impressive Manor Solomon, Arne Engels and Joel Piroe, but they were unable to find a winner.
The draw leaves new Watford boss Alessio Dionisi with five points from his opening three league matches, whilst West Ham have two draws and a defeat.

Jimmy Dunne scored QPR's winner as they came from behind to beat Blackburn Rovers 2-1 at Ewood Park.
Ryoya Morishita's spectacular strike put the hosts ahead early in the second half, but Paul Smyth equalised less than two minutes later.
Dunne headed home Tariq Lamptey's cross to clinch the points for Rangers, who are enjoying an impressive start to their campaign.
Julien Stephan's side remain unbeaten in the Championship this season and have won both their away matches.
