West Bromwich Albion won promotion back to the Premier League after a two-year absence, joining Leeds United in the top flight next season after a 2-2 home draw with Queens Park Rangers in a dramatic finale to the Championship season on Wednesday.
The point for Slaven Bilic’s side was enough to ensure second place in England’s second tier after Brentford blew their chance by losing 2-1 at home to lowly Barnsley.
A win for Brentford would have sent them into the top division for the first time since 1947. Brentford will go into the playoffs along with Fulham and Cardiff City but in a huge swing in fortunes, Nottingham Forest missed out on goal difference with Swansea City grabbing the last slot in astonishing fashion.
At the bottom, Hull City and Charlton were relegated along with Wigan Athletic.
