The thousands of Leeds United fans that invaded the south coast were in party mood but the players didn’t seem to get the memo in a lacklustre first half Nothing clicked for Daniel Farke’s off-kilter attack, who didn’t work the goalkeeper nearly enough for the threatening positions they found themselves in, with Joel Piroe and Brenden Aaronson missing several good chances Mustapha Bundu proved to be a problem and moments after hitting the post he charged through the defence again to set up an unfortunate own-goal for Sam Byram Leeds went in at the break behind and desperately needed to wake up in the second half and the response was immediate, with Willy Gnonto smashing in the leveller from close range The Whites huffed and puffed as the clock ticked down with Burnley taking the lead against Millwall to put them top of the Championship table Just when it seemed like the title had slipped through their fingers Manor Solomon popped up to find a sensational winner Not given much to do but this was his shakiest display since coming into the side bar far He was indecisive and ill-timed coming off his line with one missed catch leading to a dangerous scramble in the box Far from his best day in the office. Jayden Bogle was as threatening as usual with dangerous work down the right but was caught far up the field on several occasions Taken to the cleaners by Bundu for the goal as he left in a lazy challenge and wasn’t as solid as usual at the back and set up one great chance with a lovely lofted ball Leeds’ best performer in the first half and that’s not even faint praise He kept his composure when others didn’t to offer some classy defending against a physical side and looked to push forward out of the back to get the team going In for the injured Junior Firpo and it continues to be blatantly obvious how much Leeds struggle without their first-choice left-back Unlucky to score an own goal as the ball bounced off the post and in off him Worked hard down the left and a threat at set pieces but to little effect Good at winning the ball back but this was a regression on the ball after Monday’s great display. Ao Tanaka was sloppy in possession and conceded one dangerous chance after losing the ball Decision-making was poor by playing some wrong passes and desperately shooting from outside the box when he shouldn’t have done Displayed a lovely range of short and long passing at times but it was his one poor ball that was cut out to launch Plymouth’s counter for the opening goal After letting a couple of chances pass him by in the first half Gnonto showed great attacking instincts to get in the right place to blast the equaliser in Thought he’d set up Piroe to score but was flagged for offside in a contentious decision You’d be forgiven for thinking Aaronson thought the four Leeds players in the away end were actually playing the amount of times he skied the ball into the stands It seems like most of Leeds’ chances fell to the American and his technique was generally awful as he would never get the right power or direction on his efforts One attempt to side-foot a volley was a particularly egregious example Leeds’ biggest threat as he got the right-back dancing and delivered several threatening balls into the box that went begging until the goal It was no surprise when he set up the equaliser with some excellent wing play and a teasing cross into the six-yard box Solomon scored an incredible goal to secure the Championship Fans will be desperate to see him signed now Some nice link-up play but missed a golden chance to equalise when he skied the ball from close range If you can’t rely on your striker to convert a gilt-edged chance when it matters most it suggests another one will be needed in the top flight Thought he’d put Leeds in front from close range and was unlucky to see his effort disallowed Likely not the first name fans would have wanted to come on and offered little on the left and needlessly gave away a late corner 3 MAY 2025BookmarkLeeds United fans celebrate in Plymouth (Image: Instagram/Framed by Farrington)Leeds United have won the Championship League after defeating Plymouth Argyle 2-1 at Home Park this afternoon Argyle took the lead after 18 minutes with an own goal from Sam Byram But with the game level heading into stoppage-time Manor Solomon in the 91st minute scored a dramatic winner clinching Championship glory for the already-promoted Whites The defeat for Argyle officially confirmed their relegation from the Championship, in what has been a tough and hugely disappointing season. Leeds United fans have taken over Plymouth's Barbican where scores of away fans had been eagerly watching the high-stakes match all kitted out in yellow waving the team's flag and letting off plumes of blue and yellow smoke Devon and Cornwall Police have deployed extra officers as thousands of Leeds fans have flocked to the city and have advised those who have come from afar that there are no pubs within walking distance of the stadium for away fans to celebrate their win We will keep you updated with our live blog below. Send us information or pictures if it is safe to do so here. Comments15:04Chris ErringtonMatch statsArgyle had six goal attempts from 22 per cent of the possession during the game. None of them were on target, although Mustapha Bundu did hit the post twice, with the ball then rebounding into the net off Sam Byram on one of those occasions. Leeds had 25 goal attempts from 78 per cent of the possession, but only four were on target. It was 7-1 to Leeds on corners. Comments15:03Katie TimmsLeeds edge Burnley to Championship title on goal difference Leeds pipped Burnley to the title, Coventry and Bristol City secured the final two play-off places while Luton and Plymouth Argyle were relegated on an eventful final day in the Championship. United needed to match Burnley’s result to be crowned champions due to their superior goal difference and they eventually did just that following an afternoon of toil, beating Argyle 2-1 courtesy of a last-gasp strike from Manor Solomon. Daniel Farke’s side equalised through Wilfried Gnonto’s third effort in as many games shortly after half-time, cancelling out Sam Byram’s own goal, before the late drama at Home Park. After Mihailo Ivanovic’s early opener for play-off hopefuls Millwall at Turf Moor, Josh Brownhill took his goal tally for the season to 18 and Jaidon Anthony struck to give Burnley a 3-1 triumph and leave them second with 100 points. Blackburn, Millwall and Middlesbrough were left disappointed in their hunt for a top-six spot. Jack Rudoni’s brace took Frank Lampard’s Coventry to a 2-0 home win over Boro and Ross McCrorie scored twice as Bristol City fought back to secure a 2-2 draw against relegation-threatened Preston at Ashton Gate. Blackburn were heading into the top six at the Robins’ expense when Yuki Ohashi gave Rovers the lead at Bramall Lane, but they were pegged back by Anel Ahmedhodzic’s equaliser in a 1-1 draw with Sheffield United. Luton’s second successive relegation was confirmed after a 5-3 defeat at West Brom, with Tom Fellows, Callum Styles and Millenic Alli all scoring twice at the Hawthorns. The Hatters therefore needed a big favour at Fratton Park, but Hull survived to hang on for a 1-1 draw at Portsmouth, after Christian Saydee equalised for the hosts in the 55th minute. Derby and Stoke played out a goalless draw to retain their second-tier spots. Sunderland will go into their play-off semi-final against Coventry on the back of five consecutive losses. QPR, with assistant coaches Kevin Betsy and Xavi Calm in charge after Marti Cifuentes was placed on gardening leave, claimed a 1-0 victory at the Stadium of Light after Nicolas Madsen’s early finish. Jack Wilshere won the battle with his former Arsenal team-mate Aaron Ramsey after Norwich beat Cardiff 4-2 at Carrow Road, with Marcelino Nunez scoring either side of Calum Chambers’ 16th-minute red card. Ji-Sung Eom scored a stunner as Swansea, who recently appointed Alan Sheehan on a permanent basis and had Joe Allen playing his final game before retirement, drew 3-3 at home to Oxford, who equalised late on through Przemyslaw Placheta. Josh Windass, in what could be his final appearance for Sheffield Wednesday, netted in a 1-1 draw at Watford.

Tom Fellows was the star of the match with two identical assists to Karlan Grant and Mikey Johnston as the Baggies were able to beat the Hornets for the first time since December 2016, moving up to seventh. Moussa Sissoko pulled one back for Watford late into the match Ten-man Blackburn held on to seal a 1-0 win at Luton, ending their eight-game winless run and leaving the hosts deep in relegation trouble.

Free daily newsletterKick off your evenings with the Guardian's take on the world of football Oxford took a big step towards safety as they beat Sheffield Wednesday 1-0, with protests against the Owls chairman, Dejphon Chansiri, continuing at Hillsborough. A number of Wednesday fans turned their back on the pitch and chanted for Chansiri to sell in the 10th minute in protest at his running of the club. Sam Long’s 79th-minute header was enough to secure the win and take Oxford six points clear of the relegation zone. Third-placed Walsall's winless run extended to a ninth game as they lost 2-0 at Barrow and Doncaster moved a point behind the Saddlers as they drew 1-1 at home against fourth-placed AFC Wimbledon, a game in which both sides had a man sent off. Grimsby, in sixth, were held 2-2 at Harrogate after conceding twice late on, and Colchester are outside the playoff places by a point having scored twice in the closing stages at Newport to triumph 2-0. Carlisle boosted their survival hopes with a 2-0 win at Morecambe that saw the sides swap places in the relegation zone. They are six and seven points respectively adrift of 22nd-placed Accrington, who were 3-0 up at home against Tranmere only to draw 3-3, with Omari Patrick equalising with his second goal of the game in the 11th minute of added time at the end. Rovers are 21st, a point ahead of Stanley. There were also home wins for Chesterfield over Fleetwood (3-0) and Gillingham over MK Dons (1-0) – their first victory under Gareth Ainsworth. PA Media Thank you for your feedback.Rob Atkinson scored an unusual treble as he earned Portsmouth a dramatic 2-2 draw against their relegation rivals Derby at Fratton Park. The centre-back had cancelled out Jerry Yates’ opener before putting through his own goal in a manic five minutes of a crunch encounter. Pompey had seen Colby Bishop’s early penalty saved but secured a point when Atkinson found the net for the third time in stoppage time. Stoke scrambled an 85th-minute own-goal winner to steer themselves away from the relegation dogfight and plunge Cardiff deeper into it. After a long throw into the home box caused panic in front of goal, the keeper Ethan Horvath got his foot to a shot but the ball ricocheted in off the defender Will Fish. Stoke moved five points clear of their hosts who are in the third relegation spot and remain a point adrift of safety.

When I walked into The Psychic Shop it felt very calming and although it’s situated on the busy Albert Road in Devonport The shop itself is a treasure trove full to the brim with dream catchers books and lots of other bits and pieces related to the spiritual world - and the premises has its own resident ghost I sat beside a wishing well while waiting for my reading all coins put into the wishing well are collected for animal charities A notice by the well reads: “Be careful what you wish for Wishes made in a psychic shop are sure to be heard” - of course I made a wish Then I went into a separate room and met Sam for my reading Sam explained the process and then I was asked to “call to the higher realms” in order for Sam to “make contact with the spirits and get the insight she needs” for my reading I was to make notes on a pad of A4 paper as she spoke she spoke slowly and thoroughly so it was easy to write it all down I was given initials of certain people with connections to weddings and other life events she predicted It’s all on a notepad so I can refer to this going forward a few specific trips away to Spain and America were predicted -

Manor Solomon's late winner sparked wild celebrations Manor Solomon's stoppage-time winner secured Leeds United the Championship title as they won 2-1 at Plymouth Argyle With Burnley beating Millwall 3-1, Leeds take the title on goal difference having secured promotion back to the Premier League last month Argyle took the lead when the impressive Mustapha Bundu's shot came back off the post and went in off Sam Byram - just moments after the Plymouth forward had clipped the Leeds upright who topped the table going into the final day were repeatedly frustrated by a dogged Plymouth side until early in the second half when Willy Gnonto fired in Solomon's cross The visitors had a Joel Piroe goal ruled out for offside with 17 minutes to go as Daniel Farke's side hunted the winner they knew was required to secure the title But just as it seemed they would have to settle for second place Solomon cut in from the left and fired low into the bottom corner to send the travelling Leeds fans wild and set up a trophy lift celebration after the final whistle Leeds started well as Joe Rodon and Brenden Aaronson saw efforts saved by Conor Hazard before they fell behind Bundu had given Leeds a warning a minute before the goal as he beat three men before blasting an effort that grazed the outside of the post When the resurgent Sierra Leone forward cut in from the left moments later the net did bulge as his low effort came back off the far post and bounced in off a helpless Byram Piroe almost equalised within a couple of minutes when he turned Jayden Bogle's shot over the bar from six yards as Leeds tried to restore parity quickly Ao Tanaka and Willy Gnonto all had half-chances but Leeds failed to create another really good opening before the interval Piroe again fired over as the second half started like the first ended before Gnonto equalised from close range after Solomon had crossed low from the byline Byram saw a glancing header go wide of the post midway through the second half while a Piroe effort was disallowed when Gnonto was adjudged to be offside as he received the ball before crossing it for his team-mate - a call which replays suggested was very marginal As news of Burnley going ahead filtered through Farke brought on Patrick Bamford and Largie Ramazani to try and get a title-winning goal But it was Plymouth who almost snatched a winner when Ryan Hardie curled an 88th-minute effort wide from inside the box while Callum Wright sent a tame low shot into the arms of Karl Darlow two minutes later as the hosts caught Leeds on the break just as it seemed all hope of the title had gone Solomon broke into the penalty area and fired low past Hazard - sending the packed away end into raptures Willy Gnonto scored for the third successive game for Leeds United Plymouth Argyle head coach Miron Muslic told BBC Sport: "We faced today by far the best team in our competition We were relegated since last week and still showed this kind of performance to make it very difficult for Leeds to break us - it shows the good spirit and character of the lads "Our obligation today was to give it all we played for the Green Army and we wanted to reward our fans for the last time with a strong performance "The lads went all in and we simply needed maybe just 120 seconds to have a result we deserved But that's when you face the champions "Congratulations for an outstanding season to Leeds deserved champions and congratulations to my colleague Daniel Farke." Miron Muslic "proud" as Argyle run champions close Leeds United head coach Daniel Farke told BBC Sport: I want to send my congratulations to Burnley "Of course I'm happy that we won this game in the final stages and are officially allowed to label ourselves as champions and be the best team this season "It's an emotionally moving day because we have invested so much and wanted to crown ourselves with some silverware pretty special in the dressing room and I'm very happy for my players and staff Leeds United winger Manor Solomon speaking to BBC Radio Leeds: "I can't put into words what I'm feeling right now It is a dream come true to score the winning goal and take this championship Throughout the season we've shown we deserve this trophy and to finish in the first spot "We all knew what was happening at Burnley and we knew we needed to score It will take me a few days to digest what happened today I've been focused on this season; in two or three days we will talk and see what is happening I don't know what the future holds [Solomon is loan from Tottenham] but I can just say I love [Leeds]."

Premier League League Two - you need a triangle of sporting director Muslic had a positive meeting with chief executive Andrew Parkinson in the last few days which he described as "honest" and spoke about "some doubts that are clearly here" But he says out-of-contract players such as Mustapha Bundu and the likes of Ryan Hardie and Adam Randell - who are in the final year if their deals - have all come to him asking about their futures and he is unable to give them answers "They tried to point out a couple of weeks ago already that we need to be fast behind them because other teams will come so there are some questions I need answers to and then we can speak about the future," he added if it's the coach I always respect him I always think he will try the best possible to prepare the team to win a game if they get potentially relegated like we and Cardiff but also the teams currently now in League One they will all have the desire and the inspiration to get promoted next year so we have to find very fast another gear and to speed up the process." xemailThe match officials for Leeds United’s Sky Bet Championship clash with Plymouth Argyle on Saturday have been announced with Jeremy Simpson set to take charge at Home Park The encounter in Devon will be the Lancashire-based official’s 16th fixture of the season eight of which have come in the Sky Bet Championship The Whites have a strong record in their 12 matches overseen by the referee Simpson was in the middle for United’s 3-0 victory over Watford at Elland Road last campaign have also fared well in their three matches Simpson has officiated the Pilgrims cruised past Millwall with an emphatic 5-1 victory at Home Park back in February Assistant referees: Daniel Leach & Nigel Lugg 272 CommentsUpdated 3 May 2025So after two seasons in the Championship Plymouth Argyle are heading back to League One Despite a flurry of positive results in recent weeks, the Pilgrims will return to the third tier after their 2-1 loss to Leeds United on the final day of the season left them second-from-bottom of the table But while this season has not been successful Wayne Rooney to beating Liverpool and scaring Manchester City in the FA Cup 2024-25 will be a season few Argyle fans will forget To play this video you need to enable JavaScript in your browser.This video can not be played Plymouth Job was an easy decision to make - Wayne Rooney "I actually sold it to her that this is the Monaco of England," joked Rooney when asked how he persuaded his wife Coleen that taking the Plymouth job was the right move for his career It was a light-hearted moment from the most high-profile head coach the Pilgrims had ever appointed and ex-record goalscorer for the Three Lions Rooney had done it all as a player with Manchester United but the jury was very much out on his coaching abilities A spell at Derby County had seen the club relegated to League One although huge financial problems at the club absolved Rooney of much blame before an uneventful spell with Major League Soccer side DC United in the United States Then came a torrid time at Birmingham City in 2023 Rooney was brought in by the club's new American owners to play attacking football but his spell saw Blues drop from the Championship play-off places to the relegation zone after just two wins in 15 games in charge I raised an eyebrow and I said to myself 'I hope it works'," said BBC Sport journalist Drew Savage who commentates on Argyle matches for BBC Radio Devon "I'd been trying to interest my colleagues at BBC Sport at a national level in Plymouth Argyle for all my career and they very rarely listened "In those six months when Rooney was manager I had more conversations in the office around Argyle and my colleagues who do sport for BBC Breakfast and BBC News were far more open to mentioning Plymouth than ever before "So I totally get what he brought to the table in terms of exposure "Having a manager who was Wayne Rooney really helped in the coverage we got a lot of that coverage towards the end was negative." Wayne Rooney's first game as Plymouth Argyle boss ended in a 4-0 loss at Sheffield Wednesday Rooney's first test was a trip to Sheffield Wednesday - a club Argyle had pipped to the League One title just 15 months earlier and who had Plymouth had just one half-hearted attempt on target and saw Wednesday have 31 efforts at goal it kind of came out of nowhere," said Savage "We maybe hadn't played strong enough sides but I certainly wasn't expecting a 4-0 defeat "It was a problem that would become perpetual - in far too many games teams could just play through the middle of us "Something that did become a pattern was Rooney blamed the players He also later admitted maybe he'd played too many of the new signings "But I always got the feeling the way he thinks about the game as an elite player I don't think he was ever managing in the amount of detail that you need at Championship level - that you need to stop losing 5-0 at Cardiff and 6-1 at Norwich." Things improved a bit as they won three and drew two more of their next eight league games Rooney would win just one of his next 14 games as the Pilgrims tumbled to the foot of the table By the time he mutually agreed to part ways with Argyle on 31 December, he had seen his side fail to score in 11 of his 23 league games in charge and concede three or more goals in eight of those matches Among the horror shows Argyle fans will want to forget were the 6-1 loss at Norwich, where Rooney said Plymouth's under-18s team could have defended better, a 3-0 loss at Leeds where his side did not have an attempt at goal and a 5-0 drubbing at then bottom-of-the-table Cardiff City having gone down to 10 men "When Rooney came he tried to play a certain style," explained former Argyle defender Brian McGlinchey who works as a summariser for BBC Radio Devon "It was a lot of attacking play through the lines and sometimes I felt that maybe some of the players didn't have the ability to play that type of style and a lot of teams had worked Argyle out "I don't think they were pragmatic enough to change their style to different teams they were playing and maybe adjust to where they were in the league and where they were on form." Miron Muslic's first game as Plymouth Argyle head coach was a 1-1 draw with Oxford United on 14 January Having appointed a head coach everyone had heard of Argyle went completely the other way and got someone in that nobody had a clue about The Bosnia-born Austrian may not have had the profile of Rooney but he did at least have successful managerial experience having guided Belgian side Cercle Bruges to a Europa Conference League place His reign began slowly with a 1-1 draw with Oxford United and a 1-0 home loss to Queens Park Rangers before his side were outclassed 5-0 at home by Burnley the Clarets scoring four times in the final 15 minutes of a five-goal first half capped off by one of the greatest wins in the club's history FA Cup highlights: Plymouth Argyle 1-0 Liverpool "Just to be there that day was an amazing thing I'll remember for ever," said Savage of the famous Sunday in February when Argyle knocked Liverpool out of the FA Cup Plymouth had already beaten Premier League side Brentford in the third round under perennial caretaker manager Kevin Nancekivell and injured captain Joe Edwards But under Muslic they put in arguably the most memorable performance of this season's competition beating a Liverpool side who were clear at the top of the Premier League in the last 16 of the Champions League and Carabao Cup finalists 1-0 for one of Home Park's most famous days "Any Liverpool team on paper should pretty much beat any Plymouth Argyle team on paper," Savage said of the win against the Reds who had rested several of their star players "But the Home Park crowd has played such a role in so many of the results we have had and they tend to be results against teams we're not expecting to beat." The crucial point of the season came in the first half of March Argyle got a third top-flight side in the FA Cup and came away from their fifth round tie against reigning Premier League champions Manchester City with a creditable 3-1 defeat They had a run of four 'winnable' games but lost to relegation rivals Hull City and Derby County and were beaten 3-0 by Sheffield Wednesday - although a first away league win of the season at Portsmouth in the middle of the run salvaged some survival hopes But while good wins over Norwich City and Sheffield United further increased fans' optimism "The new manager came in and realised that he had to go a lot more resilient harder to beat," explained McGlinchey who saw Argyle move to three central defenders and a more compact and direct style of play "They've got there to a certain degree "But he's realised that defensively they weren't strong enough and he's gone there and he played five at the back and he's seen that they've had to change the style of play." No side has conceded more goals in the Championship than Plymouth Argyle It is simplistic to say that Argyle were poor at both ends of the field - but the statistics do not lie They have conceded more goals than any other side in the Championship while a recent flurry of eight goals in the past four games has seen them become the highest-scoring side in the bottom third of the table - but it was too little too late The lack of another striker was key - with Muhamed Tijani out for most of the season with hamstring issues and Ryan Hardie's patchy injury record over the Christmas and New Year period "I still maintain that Argyle have not replaced Niall Ennis," Savage said when the goals from Hardie dried up towards the end "Argyle have failed to land anybody else who's capable of consistently shouldering that burden "Tijani got injured and we've taken a while to work out exactly how to get the best out of Mustapha Bundu capable of scoring goals in the January window then we would probably be in a better position than we are now." Argyle head coach Muslic feels his side simply ran out of time to change course Having won four of their past six games they gave themselves a chance until Luton's late heroics over Coventry on Saturday left them effectively down but we will get up again," Muslic said massive challenge and I think we took this challenge with courage different set up and we simply ran out of games "It takes a little bit of time to adapt almost to change a mindset of an organisation of a club and I think we have been fantastic Plymouth Argyle beat Ipswich Town to the League One title in 2023 with a club-record 101 points Argyle are probably in a stronger position financially then when they were promoted They have benefitted from two years of the Championship's bigger television deal and have invested in infrastructure such as a new training ground and improvements at Home Park Owner Simon Hallett has said he is close to selling a stake in the club to new investors he said he was confident the budget available to Argyle if they were to go down would be "considerably in excess" of the one in their 101-point title-winning season in 2022-23 "Our success off the pitch has enabled us to diversify and grow revenues to record levels," he said returns on our investments position us well to remain financially strong in League One with the ability to fund a highly competitive first-team squad." But who will play for the club is another matter Argyle twice broke their transfer record in January to sign Ghanaian forward Michael Baidoo and Ukraine defender Maksym Talovierov While Talovierov has been a hit at centre-back failing to score or provide an assist and rarely featuring in the past few months Both have international aspirations which might be difficult playing in League One wing-back Bali Mumba and goalkeeper Conor Hazard could all attract interest from other Championship sides over the summer It will be a test for Muslic - and whoever the Pilgrims bring in as a technical director - not only to retain as many of their most coveted players but build a squad that can bounce straight back to the second tier View comments | 272Top storiesLive A man who was attacked with acid in his Plymouth home has died in hospital from the city was reportedly assualted on Lipson Road on Friday 21 February 2025 His family have been informed and have shared the following tribute: we are struggling to come to terms with Danny’s passing He is well loved by his family and friends and as a family we cherish his love and memories We ask the family are please given privacy and respect during this time.” Detective Superintendent Ben Davies said: “Our thoughts are with Danny’s family and friends at this sad time “The investigation into the incident “Nine people have previously been charged in connection to the incident.”
