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!"

Well just shows how little he knows, there hasn't been a Robin Smith managing Leeds

.... yet

We've got our young talisman back from glandular fever and even if he's only going to put in a short stint he could make a difference now. I feel reasonable confident, but QPR had a good result at the weekend, so no chickens counted.

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!

Hey! Derby are a top five club, they were at home, we were ahead twice and they only just managed to scramble a draw in added on time.
Not a bad result by any unbiased viewer

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!"

Still, Wendy threw it away again.

Not been much different here. I left Sheffield city centre at 5:15 last night with a little snow falling for a journey that should take 30 minutes. I got home eventually at 6:30 in a blizzard with the roads already becoming difficult. Walked the dog and found the same roads grinding to a halt. This morning was as bad - but at least it's slowly improving now!
