Leeds United's Sam Allardyce gamble, Rotherham United's stunning achievement and Huddersfield Town's survival bid - The YP FootballTalk podcast
- last year
In the latest of a number of tumultuous weeks this season for Leeds United, there were two casualties and one fresh face as the club’s owners cast one last throw of the dice in a bid to save their Premier League status.
Sam Allardyce has been parachuted in and given four games to secure Leeds’ survival, with director of football Victor Orta and ineffective interim boss Javi Gracia heading out the exit door the other way.
Meanwhile, in the Championship, Stuart Rayner and Leon Wobschall salute the impressive job done by Matt Taylor in helping Rotherham United end the yo-yo effect of moving between the second and third tiers, while they applaud the job done by Neil Warnock at Huddersfield Town, who now need just one point from their final two games to ensure safety.
Our panel also look ahead to Middlesbrough’s hopes of joining Sheffield United in the Premier League next year as they prepare for the play-offs.
