Sunderland secured their return to the Championship in style with a 2-0 win over Wycombe Wanderers. The Black Cats looked in complete control throughout the 90 minutes and Alex Neil wrote his name into the history books on Wearside.
The Black Cats head coach has finally ended the play-off hoodoo that lingered overhead and the Scotsman has restored pride in a season that looked destined to hit the rocks. There were plenty of emotional scenes at full-time as over 46,000 red and white supporters got to see their side win at the home of English football.
There remains question marks over Neil's future after leading the club back to the Championship, but the Black Cats boss holds a strong hand after an incredible run of form since his appointment. Talks about his future are set to take place later this week, but he's set to enjoy some well earned down time after success where others have fallen short.
