Huddersfield relegated to Championship after losing to Crystal Palace 

Huddersfield’s two-year stay in the Premier league came to an end on Saturday following their 2-0 loss to Crystal  at Selhurst Park.

Jan Siewert’s side needed to win at Crystal Palace to remain in the league.

Burnley’s 2-0 victory over Wolves, coupled with Southampton’s 1-0 win at Brighton, left Huddersfield 19 points adrift of safety with six games remaining.

The Terriers’ return to English football’s second tier was confirmed at the venue where they made their Premier League debut in such memorable fashion, beating Palace 3-0 on the opening day of last season.

But they have found their second campaign in the top flight a much more difficult proposition, registering just three wins so far from their 32 league matches.

The West Yorkshire club have become only the second club to be relegated this early in a season, matching Derby’s record in the 2007/08 campaign.
