The League Paper

In this Sunday’s Football League Paper (05/02/23)

It’s another huge weekend of EFL action as Championship leaders Burnley travel to play-off chasing Norwich and Rotherham take on Sheffield United in a vital Yorkshire derby for both sides.

Those will be our Star Games from the Championship, with the Blades’ neighbours Sheffield Wednesday hosting Plymouth in our Star Game for League One and Leyton Orient vs AFC Wimbledon taking the accolade for League Two.

We are also back at Rotherham for our big interview, as striker Jordan Hugill relishes his fresh challenge with The New York Stadium.

Derby’s Louie Sibley speaks about their promotion bid from League One under former Millers boss Paul Warne.

And Luton’s Luke Berry looks ahead to their FA Cup replay against Grimsby – and a potential reunion with former gaffer Nathan Jones

Guest columnist David Connolly discusses new boss Jody Morris’ Swindon Town prospects, while our resident expert Chris Dunlavy says Watford need to front up consistently to get their season going

We put QPR’s attacking midfielder Ilias Chair under the spotlight in our Player Profile.

And last but certainly not least, Sutton United midfielder and captain Craig Eastmond seeks more glory moments with the U’s in an interview with the FLP.
