Scott Parker’s manne go straight back down after winning promotion through the Championship Playoffs last season and join Sheffield United and West Brom, having won just five games this term.
Coach Parker reckons up front is where they failed most – with their 25 goals from 35 games only beating the relegated Blades.
He says: “In between the boxes we’ve had our moments and looked a good side but lacked something at either end.
“While we’ve had our moments, we’ve fallen short at this level and that’s why we’re relegated.”
Striker Aleksandar Mitrovic, who scored just three goals in the campaign, adds: “We have failed this season.
“Overall we have finished where we deserve to be. We did not show the big character, big mentality and we cracked under the pressure.”
