Promotion was achieved despite the season starting with disappointment and adversity when Georginio Rutter left unexpectedly.

Results improved as the team took shape. The potential derailing of performances due to injuries to the midfield pairing of Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev did not materialise as Ao Tanaka and Joe Rothwell formed an effective partnership, and emergency signing Josuha Guillavogui merely warmed the bench.

Illan Meslier caused consternation among supporters with three horrendous performances in which Leeds turned victories into draws. Pascal Struijk suffered a season-ending injury but fortunately 'Captain Fantastic' Ampadu returned from injury to cover.

Leeds suffered just four defeats before promotion, each 1-0 and each could have been avoided.

Throughout the season Daniel Farke remained calm and dealt with situations as they occurred and must be congratulated on doing a fantastic job. The small squad was well managed and clearly together.

New signings are now required. For me, we require a keeper/left-back/centre-midfielder/winger (Solomon)/no10/ centre forward.

Player of season: Joe Rodon (outstanding).

After the heartbreak of last season, it's hard to imagine a better few weeks than we experienced in April.

From the Preston North End victory and news of Sheffield United's dropped points at Plymouth Argyle to achieving promotion and the celebrations that followed, it's a far cry from the scenes at full time at Wembley last May.

From the close of the summer transfer window back in August, the squad has felt like a proper unit.
