    FT: Ipswich 2-0 Huddersfield

    Mick Mills
    Former Ipswich and England captain on BBC Radio Suffolk

    It's fantastic scenes. I was feeling sorry for Kieran McKenna because he was being engulfed by fans. This is one hell of a picture; the blue smoke, the supporters.

    I'm absolutely delighted. I thought when we got stuck in division one for four years, I wondered if we would ever come back for the Premier League. I grew up linking them to the top level.

    We are going to big, big places. That's where we deserve to be, that's where we should be, that's what the management and the players have given to us.

    My words for Kieran McKenna - thank you.

    Birmingham did all they could, winning their final game, but it was not enough as they also needed results elsewhere to go their way.

    30 years to the week since they were last relegated to the third tier of English football, Blues are heading back there next season, for just the third time in their history.

    Leeds 1-2 Southampton

    Leeds miss out on automatic promotion as they are beaten by Southampton.

    Ipswich's win put a top two finish beyond the Whites anyway, but this defeat will sting as they are overcome by a play-off bound rival.

    Leeds now need to pick themselves up if they are going to seal promotion via Wembley.

    FT: Ipswich 2-0 Huddersfield

    Huddersfield Town were just one win away from a Premier League return of their own two years ago.

    They have crumbled since then and have today tumbled to League One.

    The joy at Portman Road is a stark contrast to the misery they must be feeling.

    Leeds 1-2 Southampton

    Simon Grayson
    Ex-Leeds manager on BBC Radio Leeds

    There's a lot of empty stands. It would be nice to see one go in the corner for Leeds just so there's more positivity around the place for when Leeds go into the play-offs.

    There's been no conviction, no positivity.

    Birmingham 1-0 Norwich

    Fulham loanee Jay Stansfield is applauded off as he leaves St Andrew's for possibly the last time after a 13-goal season, to be replaced by Alex Pritchard, a former Norwich man, of course.

    If Hull score the roof will come off St Andrew's at this stage.

    Plymouth defender Dan Scarr gets a vital header in to clear Lewie Coyle's cross into the box, as Hull seek a leveller which would send the Pilgrims down.
