FootballTalk - Episode 217: Yorkshire's Christmas and New Year winners and losers
from Football Talk - The Yorkshire Post · host YP Sport
On this week’s show, The YP’s football writers Leon Wobschall and Stuart Rayner join host Mark Singleton to discuss the respective festive fortunes of Yorkshire’s Premier League and EFL clubs. In the Championship, Sheffield Wednesday – seemingly condemned to relegation due to the points deductions – claimed draws against Hull City and Blackburn Rovers, while Middlesbrough and Hull City enjoyed mixed fortunes, including the Tigers gianing revenge for a pre-Christmas loss to Boro when they took all three points in the return game.Leeds United had a productive spell, despite seeing their seven-game unbeaten run ended in a 4-3 defeat at Newcastle United in midweek.Concern for Doncaster Rovers, who remain stuck in the bottom three, continues in League One, alongside Rotherham United where the pressure is growing on manager Matt Hamshaw again after a dreadful run of results.At the other end of the table, Huddersfield Town look like joining Bradford City in the promotion picture, after they claimed an emphatic 5-0 victory against Port Vale before drawing with Exeter City.Finally, Stuart offers his Yorkshire team of the Week, while Leon singles out a star player from the past few days.
