Where Bristol City stand in the Championship Fair Play table with Sheffield Wednesday, Birmingham City and QPR amongst the dirtiest teams

The Championship is 11 games old and already three clubs have dispensed with their managers in this international break.

West Brom sit top of the pile, narrowly followed by Nottingham Forest and Preston North End who have all made strong starts to their promotion pushes.

Bristol City remain nicely placed however, as we approach a third of the season having been completed before the next round of internationals in November.

At the bottom end of the table, Stoke City, Barnsley, Reading and Huddersfield Town, in particular, have all had difficult starts to the season.

With each passing game the Premier League Fair Play table begins to formulate, revealing which team is the dirtiest in the division.

The scoring for the Premier League Fair Play table is based around bookings, second yellows and straight reds, with the points for each being one for a yellow, three for a second yellow card and five for a straight red.

If the number of points are the same, the two teams are separated by the number fouls they have committed.

Just under half of the Championship’s 24 teams have had a man sent off this season, whether that's from a straight red card or two bookings.

So with that in mind, here's a look at the Fair Play table which reveals the dirtiest Championship side to date.

Championship Fair Play table:

1: Brentford, 10 points

2: Luton Town, 13points

3: Leeds United, 14 points
