On this week’s podcast we start in the Premier League and the massive step towards safety that Leeds United took with a convincing 3-0 home win over Wolverhampton Wanderers, while also looking forward – BEFORE news came out of Liam Rosenior’s sacking at Stamford Bridge – to their FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea at Wembley this Sunday. There’s a review of the Yorkshire derby at Oakwell between Barnsley and Bradford City, as well as a discussion of the Tykes’ decision to part company with head coach Conor Hourihane at the end of the 2025-26 season and what it means for both the club and the former Reds’ captain going forward. Then there are the remarkable events to pore over in the National League and the ongoing battle for automatic promotion between York City and Rochdale who have been locked in a battle at the top of the table all season – a contest that will be decided this weekend when the teams meet on the final day of the ‘regular’ season this weekend.And it has been a significant week for Hull City who, following their 2-2 draw at Leicester City on Tuesday night, dropped out of the play-off places for the first time this year, replaced by Wrexham following their win at Oxford United. Can they bounce back?Finally this week, Leon picks out his Player of the Week, while Stuart pores over the best Yorkshire Team of the Week.
