The dust has settled following the conclusion of the 2021/22 Championship season.
AFC Bournemouth, Fulham and Nottingham Forest are busy preparing for life in the Premier League after winning promotion to the top flight, whilst Derby County, Barnsley and Peterborough United have been saying their goodbyes after relegation to League One.
