Derby County will play in the third tier of English football for the first time since 1986 next season after being relegated on Easter Monday.
The troubled Rams, who have endured a clutch of off-field problems including administration and working under a transfer embargo, were beaten 1-0 away at Queens Park Rangers. That result, combined with Reading's superb comeback in a 4-4 draw at home to Swansea City, means Wayne Rooney's side are unable to pull off a survival act.
Of course, Derby's 21-point handicap played a major role in their demise. They were handed two separate deductions this season, for entering administration in September which came with it a 12-point hit. A further nine-point docking for a breach of accounting policies followed in November.
