FootballTalk - Episode 230: Middlesbrough and Hull City's promotion hopes PLUS Leeds United's overdue FA Cup run

The Yorkshire Post’s Stuart Rayner and Leon Wobschall join FootballTalk host Mark Singleton once again and start by casting an eye over Middlesbrough’s chances of automatic promotion to the Premiership – chances that took a knock when they lost 2-1 to Millwall and then drop further points in a 2-2 draw with Swansea City. Hull City remain in with an outside chance of gatecrashing the top two but are likely to run out of time after a 1-1 draw at Oxford United was followed by a 0-0 stalemate at home to leaders Coventry City. In the FA Cup, Leeds United edged through to the semi-finals for the first time since 1987 when they won 4-2 on penalties against West Ham after the teams could not be separated at 2-2. And have Huddersfield Town reignited their chances of making the League One play-offs following their 2-1 win at Leyton Orient – the result leaving them just three points off sixth place with five games remaining. And after Barnsley suffered a 3-0 defeat at home to play-off chasing Plymouth Argyle on Easter Monday could they yet be sucked back into a relegation dogfight at the bottom of League One? Finally this week, Leon selects his Player of the Week before looking to Stuart plumps for a Yorkshire Team of the Week.
