The Championship - Best of 2017

It has been another dramatic year in the Sky Bet Championship - here are some of the best moments from the last 12 months.

Just a year after being relegated to the second tier, Newcastle bounced straight back up, winning the Championship title on the final day of the season ahead of Brighton, who were promoted to the Premier League after a 34-year wait.

In the play-offs, Sheffield Wednesday, Reading, Fulham and Huddersfield battled it out for a place in the top flight, but it was David Wagner's side who succeeded in a dramatic penalty shoot-out victory at Wembley over Reading.

Then came new beginnings in the Championship season in August as John Terry joined Aston Villa, while there were speedy starts for Wolves, Sheffield United, Derby and Cardiff.

As expected, there were managerial comings and going aplenty, as well as vital derby victories for the Blades and the Rams over their bitter rivals.
