The Championship weekend

26 April 2013 16:08
Squeaky bums all round but not at CCS (unless you are a Bolton fan).

As Cardiff City worry about just how shiny their Championship trophy is going to be tomorrow afternoon the rest of the division is still fighting it out for promotion, playoffs and relegation.

Hull City could secure their place in the Premier League along with Cardiff if either Watford lose at Leicester tonight or if Hull themselves win at Barnsley tomorrow.

Leicester will be desperate to beat Watford tonight to move into the play off places and then hope Cardiff do them a favour by beating Bolton tomorrow.

Forest in 8th are also eyeing up that final play off spot and the excitement in the division now rests with the battle for the play off / relagation places.

At the bottom Bristol City are down but only four points seperate the eight clubs above them. Wolves are in danger of a dramatic drop into League 1 but if they were to beat Burnley then the Clarets may well go into the final game of the season next week still needing to save themselves.
