Hull City and Middlesbrough’s respective managers have big decisions to make ahead of the Championship play-off final tomorrow (May 23).
Wembley Stadium is set to play host to an all-Yorkshire affair, with Hull and Middlesbrough both just 90 minutes away from Premier League football.
Middlesbrough were beaten by Southampton over two legs at the play-off semi-final stage, only for the ‘spygate’ saga to give them a reprive.
Hull, meanwhile, got the better of Millwall after sneaking into the top six with a final-day win over Norwich City.
They say legends are made under the Wembley arch, something Hull and Middlesbrough’s players will be all too aware of.
As fans wait to see who will etch their name into the history books, The Yorkshire Post has predicted the XIs Sergej Jakirovic and Kim Hellberg will select.
