I would have thought it would be more than that. Is this normally the case? Or, is it an early indictment of a tough, tight division?

All being equal you'd expect three teams to have won twice in the opening fixtures but I'd say there's basically nothing to be learned from it given the nature of how games fall randomly between strong and weak teams.
What I would say is that the Championship is a quite equal division and momentum can count for a lot - I'm sure the fans of Middlesbrough and Sunderland can't believe they're sitting on 0 points from two games but it does have the knock on effect of making things a little less comfortable when compared to our start, because another defeat and all of a sudden it's looking a it disastrous. |  | | |

Without looking it up I seem to recall there being about 6 points covering 1st to 13th in the Championship for a huge chunk of last season.
Will hopefully go the same as League One last season with two or three running away with it and the rest bunched up behind (as long as we’re in the two or three again!). |  | | |

Sort of middling. Over the last 10 seasons before this one, it has varied between zero and 4, with an average of 2.1

Can you have more than one opening fixture?
Surely once the first game is completed, fixtures are indeed.... open.
We won our opening fixture and then the next one. |  |
