Leeds United is a club on the edge at the moment. With just two games left to play this season, the Whites are in the Premier League’s relegation zone and unless something changes, they will succumb to relegation after just three years in the top flight.
The full knock-on effects of relegation are unclear at this stage, but it’s never a good thing for any organisation and after spending 16 years in the Football League wilderness, Leeds know bouncing back isn’t always straightforward. As the campaign draws to a close, then, anxiety is beginning to set in across the board.
The players are most definitely feeling the strain on the pitch. They turned in what was in many ways a promising performance against Newcastle United on Saturday, but it wasn’t enough to claim more than a single point, keeping them in the bottom three heading into the penultimate weekend.
