Newcastle are 6/1 co-favourites for the Coca-Cola Championship with Stan James after opening their campaign with a 1-1 draw at West Brom.
Damien Duff's second-half strike cancelled out Shelton Martis' opener for the Baggies in an entertaining clash between two of the division's big-guns.
West Brom and Middlesbrough are Stan James' other co-favourites although Albion are as short as 9/2 with Bet365.
Newcastle are general 7/1 chances while Victor Chandler and William Hill offer the same price about their north-east neighbours.
Notts County are as short as 9/4 with Bet365 to win League Two after they got their season off to a flyer as they demolished Bradford 5-0 with new director of football Sven-Goran Eriksson in attendance.
Debutant Lee Hughes scored a hat-trick, the third with a penalty, as the Magpies ran riot.
totesport offer a best-priced 10/3 about Eriksson's men while Bradford, as low as 9/1 for the title before kick-off, can now be backed at 18/1 with Bet365.
In League One, Leeds are 5/2 to win the title with Betfred and William Hill after a Jermaine Beckford brace saw off Exeter at Elland Road.
However the main market movers were Norwich. They were 6/1 second-favourites before kick-off against Colchester. A 7-1 defeat later and Sky Bet offer 14s.
William Hill now make Norwich manager Bryan Gunn a 4/9 chance to leave his post before the end of the season. He is 13/8 to survive the campaign.
