Towards the end of the game last Saturday there were the inevitable chants of "You're getting sacked in the morning", which is normally reserved for the manager of teams heading towards relegation ....

.... but then again ....

A second chance ? To be hoped your next game doesn't involve a trip to Wolves, then!

After a stressful day working (honestly

) we tend to watch Pointless whilst having tea. Here's a small excerpt from last Thursday, summarised:
Alexander Armstrong: "We're looking for the names of Premier League managers for the season 2015/2016"
Contestant: "I don't know anything about football so I'm going to have to make up a name. I'll say 'Robin Smith' "
AA: "I'm afraid that's an incorrect answer and scores 100 points. Richard ..."
Richard Osman: "Yes, nobody of that name has ever managed in the Premier League. I do believe a Robin Smith has managed Leeds United, though. But then, so has just about everybody else!"

We didn't need him, anyway!

Now, how did Leeds do last night ... let me see ... oh yes ... another great result for the man from Barnsley. A couple more of those and you'll be looking for your next manager. Your board could save themselves lots of compensation and achieve the same results by turning to the local pub for help!

Okay, I admit it - absolutely awful the other night

Wilder had a bit of a tantrum when talking to local radio, said he was throwing in the towel - although I suspect that was all for the benefit of the players.

But after the weekend's results we can still go 6th by winning at Reading tomorrow night.

And now you have a win under your belt. I won't even be churlish and say "well, it has to happen occasionally!"
