I dare you to sack me board, I double dare you [2018/19]

A blog post title full of piss and vinegar. If only the team spirit followed suit I wouldn't be in the odd position I am in now. My job security is almost non-existent, the team are considered to be in the wrong half of the table. On the other hand I'm on a ten match unbeaten run and the performances are getting better.

17th with 31 points after 25 games. Not really what a play off chasing team should be doing but there's only a 5 point gap between us and top 10 (just) and 10 from the playoffs. With another 20 or so games to go we can still reach the target.

The board seem a bit pissy though. They're remembering both the 4 matches lost in a row (12 valuable points) and the fact that 17th is a poor place to occupy. They seem to be forgetting that over 10 games had been and gone before I arrived though.

Still forms looking up.

A few more draws than we would like but they keep the points ticking over. Each match we get a bit better too. In the last game we took on 1st place Wigan and, score aside, trounced them. They got through that match by the skin of their teeth.

Cameron Jerome has been a revelation. Initially I thought he was old, past it and on far too much money. A signing of folly by the previous manager. Nilsson was my first choice. But he's not performed and he got injured. Cameron stepped up and has been causing havoc. He's goal tally isn't great but he looks much more at home in the team than Nilsson does.

With January coming up I'll have to see what I can do transfer wise. If I can shift a few of the poorer players I have a few targets in mind. No one (special) seems very interested in coming to Leeds though so I might hold on and just get some cover in. Maybe an extra midfielder considering how tired Gosling has been getting.
