Where the promotion trophy Cardiff City and Fulham are battling for will actually be on Sunday

The Championship’s runner-up trophy will be in south Wales ahead of Cardiff City’s crunch promotion clash with Reading.

WalesOnline understands the runner-up trophy will be in the Welsh capital due to the fact Cardiff are currently second in the league standings.

Along with the runner-up trophy, Cardiff will also be in battle with Fulham for promotion winners’ medals this weekend.

Despite a scenario where Cardiff would win, a number of first team players would actually miss out on a medal due to the EFL’s criteria on which players can receive the prizes.

They state that players must be named on the team sheet for 25 per cent or more of their side’s league games in a season.

Still dont agree with a 2nd place trophy.

As a comparison Man Utd have finished 2nd in PL and qualified for Champions League. They wont be lifting a 2nd place trophy. Craziness modern football
