Leeds United drew with Huddersfield Town in the Championship on Saturday afternoon and despite taking 28 points from the last 30 available still dropped out of the top two
Nine straight wins, Leeds United had equalled a club record and yet as soon as they had the temerity to drop two points, not lose, but drop two points, they got spat out of the Championship’s top two. As Daniel Farke has told us since day one in a Jack Charlton Stand lounge, this league is relentless and so it proved.
There is no quarter given, no opportunity to coast or have weeks off where you’re allowed to hide from the stark reality of this promotion fight. You simply have to win every week or you’re left with this creeping sense of dread your season is about to collapse in on itself. A penny for the thoughts of Enzo Maresca, his players and the Leicester City fan base, who have too frequently seen their team bottle it in the final weeks of a season over recent years. That could be what stings most until we do it all again on Tuesday night.
