Norwich champions while Sunderland guarantee play offs

Delia Smith's Norwich are 1st Division champions. The Canaries defeat at Sunderland on Tuesday mattered not as 2nd placed West Brom were slaughtered at Stoke.

Norwich are champions. West Brom are runners up with both teams promoted to the Premiership.

Sunderlands win means they are guaranteed a play off place. Stoke's win over Albion moved the Potters into 11th place just above City who are now 12th.

At the bottom it's D Day for Gillingham and Walsall. The Gill's go to Stoke knowing a win would keep them up. A defeat to Tony Pulis's men (ironically a man once sacked by Gillingham) and they would go down if Walsall win.
