Pompey have been relegated from the Championship after a 2-1 defeat to Derby.

The Blues needed to win at Fratton Park to stand any chance of taking their battle for survival to the final weekend of the season.

But goals from Jake Buxton and a Steve Davies penalty, which came either side of a Luke Varney leveller, condemned Michael Appleton’s men to League One.
