After a 12-point deduction, Derby County sits bottom of the Championship, with Peterborough United and Hull City just above them in the bottom three.
- 31 October 2021: At the quarter-way mark of the Premier League campaign, Chelsea sit top of the table, three points clear of Liverpool, who are one of two unbeaten teams in the Football League so far. Manchester City and West Ham are joint third, and Manchester United, Arsenal, and Brighton complete the top seven. At the other end of the table are the two teams in the Football League yet to experience victory, Norwich (20th) and Newcastle, newly flush with cash from their takeover by Saudi Arabia's PIF fund but yet to make any major moves beyond the mutual termination of head coach Steve Bruce's contract. Burnley are 18th, three points behind Aston Villa, Leeds, and Watford. Bournemouth - the second unbeaten team - lead the Championship with a five-point gap between them and Fulham. Fulham in turn have a four-point gap between them and third-placed West Brom. Coventy, Huddersfield and Blackpool lead a congested play-off chase. Derby County remain bottom of the Championship, with Barnsley now joining them and Hull in the bottom three.
- 30 November 2021: November closes with Chelsea still leading the Premier League, a point ahead of Manchester City and two points ahead of Liverpool. West Ham hold the final Champions League spot, ahead of Arsenal on goal difference. Wolves and Spurs (who have a game in hand) round out the top seven. Norwich have managed to end their winless streak and are now only 3 points adrift of 17th-placed Watford, though there is no such luck for Newcastle, now bottom of the Premier League; Burnley also remain in the relegation zone. Fulham have leapfrogged Bournemouth at the Championship summit, but the Cherries have extended their distance from third place - currently held by QPR - to seven points. West Brom, Blackburn, and Coventry finish November in the top six. A further 12-point deduction sees Derby finish November on 1 point, with a daunting 19-point gap between them and 21st-placed Reading, struck themselves with a deduction of 6 points. Barnsley remain stuck in the bottom three, while Peterborough take Hull's place in the bottom three.
- 31 December 2021: Manchester City enter 2022 with an eight point lead at the top of the Premier League table over second-placed Chelsea. Liverpool are third with a game in hand. Arsenal hold the coveted fourth spot, four points ahead of West Ham, though Manchester United and Spurs have at least one game in hand over Arsenal. Norwich finish the year back on the bottom of the Premier League, a point behind Newcastle and Burnley, though Burnley have games in hand over fellow strugglers Leeds and Watford. In the Championship, Bournemouth have returned to the top of the table, four points clear of joint-second Fulham and Blackburn. West Brom, Middlesbrough and Huddersfield finish December in the top six, but with only 12 points between 6th and 18th, plus multiple teams holding games in hand over the top six due to postponements, competition remains fierce. A return of 9 points from a possible 12 in December has seen bottom club Derby County narrow the gap between them and 21st (still held by Reading) to 11 points, giving the East Midlands battlers an outside chance of avoiding the drop. Barnsley (23rd) and Peterborough also remain in the relegation zone.
- 31 January 2021: Manchester City extend their Premier League lead to nine points at the end of January, although second-placed Liverpool still have a game in hand. Chelsea have dropped to third, and Manchester United have seized fourth place ahead of West Ham, Arsenal, and Spurs, though the latter two have at least one game in hand over United. Norwich have climbed out of the relegation zone at the expense of Watford, now sandwiched between Newcastle (18th) and Burnley, though with their rivals all having at least one game in hand (including 4 alone for Burnley) the relegation battle is only just beginning to intensify. In the Championship, Fulham have seized the lead following a stunning month that has seen them score 23 goals in only five matches and now lead second-placed Blackburn by five points, although Bournemouth and QPR could leapfrog the Lancastrians by winning their respective games in hand. West Brom and Middlesbrough remain in the top six, ahead of Huddersfield on goal difference. The Championship bottom four remains unchanged except for Derby and Barnsley swapping position, with only seven points now separating Derby and Reading.
