Championship round-up:  Champions Reading surpassed Sunderland's Football League record points total of 105 with a 2-1 win over QPR on the final day of the Coca-Cola Championship season.

Dave Kitson gave the Royals the lead in the 40th minute but Paul Furlong struck a QPR equaliser in the 72nd minute.

However, Richard Langley's handball in the 81st minute meant Scotland international Graeme Murty could convert a penalty to send Reading up with the best record of a side promoted to the Premiership.

Preston secured a psychological advantage for the play-offs with a 2-0 win over Leeds at Deepdale.

Both clubs went into the game having secured a place in the play-off semi-finals but Preston's victory saw them climb above the Yorkshire side.

It meant that the two sides meet at Elland Road on Friday with the return leg at Deepdale the following Monday.

Preston took the lead in the 37th minute after a foul by Matthew Kilgallon on Jason Jarrett presented the home side with a free-kick just outside the Leeds box.

Leeds keeper Neil Sullivan failed to get his wall right and Brian Stock clipped the ball past the former Scotland international.

And Brett Ormerod scrambled home the second in the 77th minute, although there was a hint of handball against the home side in the build-up.

Watford finished third but will hope to play better than they did in drawing 0-0 with Hull. They will tackle Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday with the return at Vicarage Road on Tuesday week.

Second-placed Sheffield United leave the Championship with a 1-0 win over Palace who head to the play-offs and a meeting with Watford on the back of a defeat which came courtesy of a Chris Morgan's 81st-minute goal.
