Yes that’s any playoff hopes dashed on the rocks of desperation yet again. I genuinely believe they are cursed never to reach the Premier League.

Their fans believed they had won the Championship back in November. Deluded people

qpr 4-0 Leeds Utd ‍
QPR now safe from relegation whilst lufc facing the play offs. Leicester can't be caught now so they are promoted whilst it's now odds on that Ipswich will join them in automatic promotion to the prem.
It's all down to the team now. Nowt we supporters can do.

"Leeds are falling apart again!"

 

[Drog]

Cagey stuff in the two play off games.
Norwich 0 Leeds 0
WBA 0 soton 0

I think Leeds might be a bit financially f*cked if they don't go up. Less so than Norwich.

 

[goozburger.]

Norwich almost as calamitous as us at the back and in goal. Surely there's no coming back from this.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

Worth tuning in to see that cheating b***ley thug get substituted, ha ha. 4-0 to Leeds.

 

[goozburger.]

David Wagner sacked at Norwich City. Not surprised after last night's defeat. It was diabolical, although the sacking might have been on the cards for several months.

Why would anyone sack a manager when the their club is on course for a top six position.... apart of course for Brum.

Not sure, but Neil Warnock says he was told that Wagner was going to get the boot whether Norwich went up or not. Brutal game!

They weren’t?

Big club. There was a fan of there’s on talksport a few weeks back who said this claim of being in the top six was a myth. I don’t know myself but he said that if one of theirs and a certain other teams results that weekend had gone the other way then they would have been 14th.

Sav glad we stayed up.

No myth..... the table never lies is an ages old saying in football. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67053921

So it's going to be a trip to the lovely University city of Oxford for us this coming season rather than another return to the depressing Breezeblock, Somalia for another fake derby.

Probably better for us points-wise too. As I reckon we would only get a point from 2 stodgy games whereas I think there's more chance of 3 or 4 against The Os.

Oxford are back in the 2nd tier for the first time in 25 years.
Obviously we have played them recently due to our brief 3rd division demise (took 6 points off them).

I watched the 2nd half in a restaurant in Morocco. Notlob were appalling - I mean the United keeper literally didn't have to make a save. Talk about bottle jobs.
