Neil Warnock is reviving Huddersfield

Neil Warrnock's Huddersfield beat Sheffield Utd to secure Championship survival


Neil Warnock completed another remarkable chapter in his near 50-year managerial career as Huddersfield beat promoted Sheffield United to secure Championship safety, relegating Reading.

Town needed only a point to guarantee survival with a game to spare and Danny Ward's 25-yard strike just before the hour proved enough to clinch all three.

Huddersfield have lost just twice in their past 11 matches to overhaul a seven point gap to safety, helped by Reading's six-point deduction.

The sides meet on the final day in what is now no more than a dead rubber.
