Kieran McKenna believes Ipswich Town’s away point at Hull City will be “really big” in The Tractor Boys’ effort to finish ahead of Leeds United in second. Few would have foreseen Leeds United’s 4-0 defeat to QPR on Friday night. A team with a poor home record faces Leeds, who had the third-best away record in the Championship heading into the game. The pressure was on Leeds at Loftus Road, but Daniel Farke’s team was expected to return home with three points. Of course, it never happened with Leeds battered. Leeds missed an opportunity to go four points ahead of…

Following Nottingham Forest’s 2-0 defeat to Manchester City, Sky Sports analyst Paul Merson criticized one of the club’s players. The Reds gave it their best in today’s Super Sunday game, but they were unable to open up the title race. Arsenal’s triumph over Tottenham had put a lot of pressure on City, but they eventually dispatched Forest rather comfortably. However, things may have gone differently for the Reds. Forest pushed City hard and had many excellent scoring opportunities to keep the game interesting. Unfortunately, Forest squandered numerous opportunities, and the Reds remain in a hard battle to avoid relegation. Merson…
Leeds United are in a “worrying” scenario after their latest accounts revealed the club’s financial problems – and a “disastrous” points deduction is becoming increasingly likely. Speaking on the most recent episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, former Leeds and England goalkeeper Paul Robinson, who is well-connected at his former club, revealed the situation and admitted that promotion would provide the Whites with a “huge bonus” as they look to alleviate their financial concerns. Despite reporting a record turnover of £189.7 million in 2022-23, the club lost £33.7 million after being relegated to the Championship. On April 27, Football…
Next season, Liverpool will play Champions League football under Arne Slot. Jürgen Klopp was eager to wrap things up as soon as the Premier League championship was gone. Jürgen Klopp’s tenure at Liverpool will not finish in the best possible way. There will be no recurrence of the torturous seasons past against Wolves on the last day of the campaign, with hopes shattered for a Manchester City slip-up. This time, Liverpool has gone out of contention for the greatest prize with a few games remaining. A draw against Manchester United followed by a home defeat to Crystal Palace was simply…
Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer have weighed in on Nottingham Forest’s Premier League relegation struggle before of their encounter against Manchester City on Sunday. The Reds are just one position and one point above the relegation zone, in 17th place, with four games remaining, the first of which is against Pep Guardiola’s champions at the City Ground today (4:30pm). Lineker emphasized the importance of Forest’s appeal against their four-point deduction for violating Premier League financial rules being resolved quickly, while Shearer believes Nuno Espirito Santo’s side is “in the driving seat” to stay up, ahead of Luton Town and Burnley,…
Leeds United sold academy graduate Ronaldo Vieira unexpectedly in the summer of 2018, when Marcelo Bielsa arrived, but the choice has paid off. The problem with being a promotion-chasing Championship side is that even if you want to be bold with acquisitions, you must balance them out with outgoings that can support it. So, when Leeds appointed Marcelo Bielsa in 2018 under Andrea Radrizzani, his high salary necessitated a different approach in the transfer window, which included selling one or two first-team players. Ronaldo Vieira sold to Sampdoria for £6.25 million. Youngster Ronaldo Vieira, who has been a major presence…
Leeds United traveled to Loftus Road to face Queens Park Rangers, hoping for an intriguing match that would result in another three points for Daniel Farke’s side. The Whites suffered a 4-0 defeat at QPR in the Championship, allowing Ipswich Town to move up to second place with two games in hand. The Tractor Boys only drew at Hull City this weekend, keeping them in second place on goal difference, but their performance in London does not inspire confidence ahead of their final league game of the regular season at home to Russell Martin’s Southampton. Joel Piroe is unlikely to…
Forget about Liverpool fans; not even their opponents predicted this calamity! The Premier League championship race is over, Liverpool has been knocked out of the FA Cup and the Europa League, and there has been a falling out between Jurgen Klopp and Mohamed Salah. Liverpool surrendering points away to West Ham United was terrible enough. Days after losing the Merseyside derby to Everton, they failed to reply with a great effort and a win. Yes, Liverpool is still mathematically in the Premier League title race, but even the most fervent fans understand it’s gone. You’d think it would be the…
Nottingham Forest will face a “very significant” fine after accusing Premier League referees of bias. That is according to financial expert Kieran Maguire, who exclusively told Football Insider that Forest’s internet outburst has cost them “goodwill” from fans. Forest issued a statement on Twitter following their 2-0 loss against Everton on Sunday (April 21) regarding “extremely poor” refereeing decisions. The club claimed they were denied three penalty decisions at Goodison Park after protesting to the PGMOL that the video assistant referee on duty was a Luton Town fan. Forest has already sent out two more tweets on its official account,…
Leeds United remained second as Ipswich Town were beaten to a 3-3 draw by Hull City on Saturday night. Ipswich Town lost an opportunity to knock Leeds United out of the Championship’s top two when they drew 3-3 with Hull City on Saturday night. The Whites’ dismal loss at QPR on Friday night allowed Ipswich to re-enter the automatic promotion spots and drop Leeds to third, but the Tractor Boys’ point at the MKM Stadium was insufficient to capitalize. Ipswich remain third in the Championship, trailing only Leeds on goal difference, and Daniel Farke’s side are now guaranteed to go…
