Godwin ObajeLeeds United manager Daniel Farke is still fuming about the EFL’s recent announcements, despite the team’s Championship title victory. Farke’s frustration stems from the omission of one of his key players from the Championship Team of the Season. While the specific player isn’t mentioned, Farke’s reaction suggests that he believes the player deserved recognition.
This isn’t the first time Farke has clashed with the EFL. Earlier in the season, he was left seething after a game against Middlesbrough, where two of Leeds United’s goals were disallowed. Farke questioned the refereeing decisions and even asked the EFL to remove linesman Darren Williams from officiating Leeds United games in the future.
Other Controversies:
- Referee Appointment: The EFL’s appointment of John Busby as referee for Leeds United’s game against Preston North End also drew criticism from Farke. Busby had previously made questionable decisions in a game between Leeds United and Preston, sparking concerns about his impartiality.
- Previous Disputes: The EFL has faced criticism from Leeds United fans and Farke in the past for various decisions, including scheduling and refereeing appointments. For instance, the appointment of Thomas Bramall, a Sheffield-born referee, for a crucial game against Luton Town raised eyebrows due to potential biases ¹ ² ³.
