AN HONEST CHAMPIONSHIP...

Reflecting on this weekend's fixtures in The Championship I have to say that one of the stand out features was its honesty and integrity

Nine (of twelve) fixtures had something 'riding' on them and every team played their part in ensuring that none of the affected teams at the top or the bottom could take a breath for the whole 90 minutes and beyond.

For me, the two stand out teams of the day were Champions Cardiff and our old adversaries Dirty Leeds, where neither team gave an inch and produced huge performances when it would have been so easy to have an eye on the beach

Personally, I would have preferred Udinese to get that second spot but at least it ensured the natives were friendly on Saturday night

How typical our own 'old boy' Ross McCormack scored the winner but I sincerely congratulate Hull City FC (and will 'root' for either Brighton in the play-offs)

We are Leeds we are leeds we are Leeds

Can't say I agree.

It was spoilt by the Huddersfield v Barnsley game where one of the keepers was allowed to hold onto the ball for the last 80 seconds because it was filter through that Palace had scored against Peterborough means both clubs were safe. Bad sportsmanship as far as I was concerned.

Honest yes, but at the end of the day players/clubs are playing for points/status/money and the Barnsley-Huddsfield type thing is bound to happen - I have vague memories of this kind of thing happening over the years although i can't think of a specific example.
