The season was not ending the way I wanted, the last 5 games have been terrible, and especially after the run we had from the start of the year, this game about summed up the last five games, a hammering of 4-0.
Queens Park Rangers secured their Championship survival in style with a stunning 4-0 win against Leeds – a result that sent Leicester up to the Premier League.
First-half goals from Ilias Chair and Lucas Andersen, followed by second-half headers from Lyndon Dykes and Sam Field, gave the Hoops a deserved win in their final home game of the season.
Hoops goalkeeper Asmir Begovic made big saves to deny Joel Piroe and Crysencio Summerville in the first half, but the home side never looked back after Chair’s early opener.
The defeat for second-placed Leeds hugely dents their hopes of automatic promotion and means Leicester return to the top flight at the first time of asking.
The Whites now look increasingly likely to have to settle for a play-off place with Ipswich one point behind with two games in hand.
But it was a night of elation for Marti Cifuentes’ Hoops who are now seven points clear of the drop zone and move up to 16th.
We have thrown away the chance of being promoted straight back up as I can’t see Ipswich failing to overtake us to claim 2nd place and meaning that were be in the play-off’s which we have a dreadful record in.
Marching On Together
League position 2nd after 45 games
