Play by play

91'
The final whistles have gone: West Brom are safe after a 2-0 victory; Southampton, Palace and Norwich go down and will play Championship football next season.
91'
The Norwich players are clearly upset, though they are being given an excellent reception by their fans.
91'
FULL-TIME: Norwich are down. The scoreline doesn't tell the whole story; Norwich pressed desperately all game, but were cut apart on the counter-attack.
90'
Norwich win a late corner off Bocanegra. Huckerby curls it in to the middle but Shackell heads over the bar under pressure.
89'
This is harsh on the visitors. Had the referee thought differently, they could have had two penalties and a Dean Ashton goal in the first half alone.
89'
GOAL! Cole pounces on McBride's low cross from the left to flick home from a couple of yards out.
88'
Fulham again find plenty space and time in the Norwich area, but Cole chooses to shoot when setting up Bouba Diop would have been the wiser, less-selfish option.
87'
Huckerby slips McKenzie through down the right channel, but Van der Saar is quick to recognise the danger, flies out of his area and puts the ball out of play. Good awareness from the lanky Dutchman.
85'
SUB: Boa Morte off, Cole on. Coleman gives the home fans the chance to appreciate the Portuguese winger's performances this season.
84'
GOAL! McBride slides the ball past Green after finding an obscene amount of time and space in the Norwich penalty area. Poor Canaries.
83'
Fulham haven't slackened off at all. They are being very professional in their performance this afternoon, recognising their duty to the other relegation-threatened teams.
82'
Goal news: Charlton have equalised at The Valley, meaning West Brom are currently the side out of the bottom three. Incredible drama on this final day.
81'
Oooh! Norwich are at least finishing with a flurish. Ashton turns home Hoult's cross shot, but he's rightly flagged off-side.
80'
Chairman Delia Smith seems resigned to relegation as she applauds, misty-eyed in the stands.
80'
From the resulting corner, the ball eventually worked to Huckerby, who's dangerous, curling cross needs palming behind by the Fulham keeper.
79'
Oooh! A deflected McKenzie corss from the left needs turning around the post from an alert Van der Saar.
78'
Oooh! Volz then has a low shot comfortably saved by Green as he picked up a loose ball 25 yards out.
77'
Oooh! Jonson is fortunate not to put in to his own net when Volz fires over a dangerous low cross in to the six yard box. Corner.
76'
Norwich win anothr corner from Goma. The ball is worked to Huckerby, but Fulham defend a series of crosses very well.
75'
Malbranque's cross from a good position is over-hit; he had several team-mates in good positions. The Norwich fans still find the heart for a final sing-song. The Spirit of the Blitz.
74'
Knight has been dominant in this second half; Ashton hasn't been able to win as much in the air, cutting out McKenzie's supply line.
73'
Television cameras pick out some tears on the faces of one or two Norwich fans. They look distraught with the way the final day has gone for them.
72'
Two Fulham players need treatement after clashing in their own penalty area. Knight requires some attention on a leg injury, Goma also seems to be suffering a little.
71'
Malbranque has earned his goal, without a doubt. He has been one of the best players on the pitch this afternoon. Norwich are falling apart at the moment.
70'
GOAL! Good composure from Boa Morte as he breaks in to the area. He picks out Malbranque, who places a low shot in to the empty goal.
