Daniel Farke admits Leeds United 'embarrassment' but retains hope of Championship drama repeat

Farke chose not to speak about the play-offs in the wake of Leeds’ 4-0 defeat by QPR last Friday, but did acknowledge the result was an ‘embarrassing’ episode for his side. Damaging as it was to automatic promotion hopes, last weekend at Loftus Road was a perfect example of why the league Leeds find themselves battling to get out of is so revered. The Championship is widely regarded as one of the most entertaining leagues, season in season out; this year has been no different.

Take the 2016/17 season for example, when Brighton and Hove Albion squandered a seven-point lead on title challengers Newcastle United after 43 games. The Seagulls lost two of their three remaining fixtures, while Newcastle with promotion secured and an unrealistic shot at the title, won their 44th and 45th games, setting up a tantalising final day, but one Brighton still had the upper hand in with their one-point lead.
