Championship - who's going up and down?

Only thing certain in this season's Championship is that QPR will likely take the first promotion spot. But that's not surprising given the team they've got, and Neil Warnock has given the club the stability it always needed. Of course, no manager would last there without ever achieving that elusive goal.

But second place is up for grabs- Cardiff, Swansea, Norwich, Leeds and Nottingham Forest all can get that place, and Burnley have run into some good form of late.

Crystal Palace rely on their home form for survival, while Sheffield United look like heading down after a long time in the second tier (make that 16 out of 17 seasons) and Preston's decade-long stay there is all but over.

Yeh QPR have that top spot. If i had to guess i think Swansea will hang on to 2nd spot and who knows about the playoff! Would be interesting to see both Cardiff and Swansea win promotion. Welsh derby in the EPL would be epic! It seems Preston are certainly down and more than likely Sheffield United will be joining them in League 1. This weekends games will play a big part in deciding who joins them. Palace are away to QPR so if Scunthorpe can take the points at home against Leicester it will make things very interesting given they still have a game in hand! Will be an exciting finish either way

QPR in the shit over some dodgy player/manager deal, possible points deductions so they are not definant to go up.

Please let this be true!

Though not a Leeds supporter, for the sake of enjoyment I hope they go back up. Nothing like a bit of old rivalry to stir things up again.

Unless you get automatic (which let's be realistic ain't likely to happen) this would probably end up working against you lot... even with a points deduction they'd still likely make the playoffs which they would win.
