It means the Championship line-up is complete and, if Leeds United are to win promotion back to the top flght at the first time of asking, they are going to have to get the better of the likes of Middlesbrough, Norwich City, Watford and West Bromwich Albion, as well as fellow relegated sides Leicester City and Southampton.
