Cardiff City won promotion to Premier League

Cardiff City will be playing in English top division next season after they survived their final game of regular Championship season against Reading. With Wolves already won promotion two game weeks earlier, Fulham could have secured second place by beating Birmingham but instead fell to stunning 3:1 defeat and therefore allowed Neil Warnock’s boy to slip in.

• Neil Warnock became the coach who won most senior promotions (8) in England football.
• Championship’s play-off quartet for 3rd PL promotion ticket is Fulham, Aston Villa, Middlesbrough and Derby County.
