FootballTalk - Episode 252: Assessing Leeds United and Hull City's Premier League return
After the end of the extended international break, The Yorkshire Post’s football writers, Leon Wobschall and Stuart Rayner, join host Mark Singleton to cast their eye over the return to action of Yorkshire’s Premier League and EFL clubs.
They start with the top-flight clash for Leeds United at Arsenal, Daniel Farke’s side falling to a 2-1 defeat after taking the lead in the 55th minute.
They then look at the all-Yorkshire clash between Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday which saw The Owls stage a late comeback to claim a point in an entertaining 2-2 draw which sees both sides maintain pace with the leading pack in the division.
Hull City played out a 2-2 draw with Everton to extend their promising start to the campaign, one they will hope to extend at Craven Cottage next time out against Fulham.
And finally, this week sees Stuart pick his Player of the Week before Leon determined who the White Rose’s Team of the Week was.

FootballTalk - Episode 251: Michael Duff in at Bradford City, Huddersfield Town's progress and was the extended international break a success?
On this week’s show, host Mark Singleton is joined by The YP’s Stuart Rayner and Leon Wobschall to pore over the latest news from the Yorkshire football scene.
They start off at Valley parade following Tuesday’s announcement that former Barnsley and Huddersfield Town manager Michael Duff would succeed Graham Alexander as the boss at Bradford City.
They then turn their attention to Yorkshire and League One rivals Huddersfield Town who, under Martin Drury have made an encouraging start to the 2026-27 campaign and sit third in the standings – just a point off a top two containing leaders Plymouth and the Bantams – following the weekend’s 3-1 win over Burton Albion.
Finally, the panel consider whether the extended international break has been a success – both for national teams and the clubs affected by not playing as a result of players being away on international duty.
