Leeds United inquest held at Thorp Arch after Queens Park Rangers defeat
Leeds United held an inquest at Thorp Arch on 27 April following their 4-0 defeat to Queens Park Rangers at Loftus Road, according to Beren Cross.
The Leeds Live journalist reported via his X account that the players were kept in meetings at the training ground for a long day to pick through the disappointment.
With automatic promotion seemingly slipping away from Daniel Farke’s side, longer hours at the training ground will be the minimum fans expect after what was an awful defeat.
Leeds United players kept at Thorp Arch after QPR loss
The heavy 4-0 defeat to QPR may be the final nail in the coffin of Leeds’ automatic promotion push after a run of terrible form in recent weeks, coming on top of defeats to Blackburn Rovers and Coventry as well as a draw against Sunderland at Elland Road.
With four points separating Leeds from Leicester in top spot, the latter celebrated long into the night at Leeds’ expense as their promotion was confirmed, while Ipswich would also have been excited by the opportunity handed to them.
The Tractor Boys have two games in hand over Farke’s side, with a visit to Hull City the first to be played later on 27 April, handing them the opportunity to pull two points ahead of their promotion rivals.
If Ipswich can win both of their games in hand, they will be promoted to the Premier League, with Leeds forced to suffer through the playoffs – something in which they have historically struggled to come out on top.
