Lets be frank. The end of that Newcastle-QPR match was the stuff of nightmares for anyone that has anything to do with Newcastle United.

Ciaran Clark is probably not the only Magpie that is not going to sleep easy tonight.

But look on the bright side of life, the next game is never far away.

And, here on the BBC Sports website, you need only look ahead to tomorrow night for our next English Football League live text offering as we bring you Huddersfield v Brighton.

Yep, it's the ONE game that can actually compound Newcastle's misery as the Seagulls can go four points clear at the top of the Championship with victory. Then again, fifth-placed Huddersfield will want a pretty big say in that.

The drama never ends!

Until then, goodnight.

Ciaran Clark was certainly in the wars against QPR. He copped a nasty gash on his head in the first-half, then badly as you like concedes an own-goal in the last minute of normal time, which means Newcastle miss out on top spot.

Fulham's triumph at Burton Albion is their first ever win over the Brewers.

It is also the Londoners' first win away from home in three games. Good night out, that.

Pontus Jansson came up with late winner at Blackburn for a Leeds United side that are mounting a real bid for promotion challenge.

A costly late own goal from Ciaran Clark means Newcastle remain second, with Brighton and Hove Albion continuing to lead the way at the top of the Championship. The Magpies, however, cut their advantage back to a single point.

The nights' big movers in the Championship are Fulham, moving up to ninth - within two places and three points of the play-off spots - after beating relegation threatened Burton.

Leeds remain fourth in the table, but are now just a point behind Reading in third after getting the better of second-from-bottom Blackburn.

Newcastle United goalscorer Matt Richie told Sky Sports: "They are a good side and it was a tough game. It is a a really tough league, the sides at the top are all strong and it is going to go down to the death, I think."

It's full-time at Ewood Park and that's a really fine win for Leeds, strengthening their position in the Championship play-off places.

Alex Smithies with a strong save, keeping Yoan Gouffran out from a tight angle.

Just as importantly, the follow up is cleared by Jake Bidwell as Mohamed Diame looked poised to pounce from close range.

Drama this, right at the END.

One place it is most definitely done and dusted is at the Pirelli, where Fulham have secured a fine 2-0 victory over Burton.

Matt Richie gets the timings of his tackle all wrong and Massimo Luongo is sent flying. Legs went everywhere. Nothing vicious, just poor.

And as quickly as a can write the words saying Ayoze Perez has played some bad passes, he quickly shows his quality.

The ball into the area looks much more difficult, but he bends a low cross in dangerously. It just needed a foot to meet it at the end. Great thinking.

And that proves to be his last involvement in the game as Mohamed Diame replaces Perez with five minutes remaining.

Ayoze Perez has been a bright spark for Newcastle tonight, but he has made some really poor calls.

Again, he runs into space, is free on the left of the area...

A few minutes earlier, he didn't choose the pass and this time he comes up with a badly over-hit cross. A ball, cut back on the turf would have created mayhem for a scrambling QPR defence!

And we have a second QPR debut for the night, as recent arrival from Manchester United Sean Goss comes on for Darnell Furlong.

Alex Smithies AGAIN with a brilliant stop! The QPR goalkeeper is keeping his side right in this game, when in the last few minutes Newcastle could have been out of sight.

It must be said that Ayoze Perez made a dreadful decision there, taking the shot from the left of the box when Matt Richie was screaming out for the ball to be played square to him in the centre of the area!

QPR with their second change, and it is a familiar face for the Newcastle locals as Kazenga LuaLua is on for Jamie Mackie.
