Liverpool return to the summit of the English Premier League after hammering Huddersfield, Spurs lose for the first time at the new White Hart Lane, and Cardiff fails to beat Fulham.

Wind whistles through the stadia of the most beautiful league in the world, soon to be silent. Then what will we do? Delve into a deep mine seeking diamonds? Fix a fridge? Throw your wedding band into the bushes, and travel around the world unencumbered from the strains of marital misery, like Phileas Fogg?

Like the cooling of the drill, life without the English Premier League (EPL) can be pretty dull.

Until then.
