Just like the 3 games was deliberately picked for Leeds form because that suited you. Generally the standard range people pick for form is 5 or 6 games. Alternatively you can look at the whole of the current season. Or you could just view that dire performance today and draw your own conclusion. Form over a calendar year, which is as poor as ours is looking likely to end up, is, I would say, a very good indicator of where we are heading.

Mate, I enjoy your well informed posts and respect the effort and research you put into them. But the simple fact is good coaches do not allow such massive swings in form. It speaks to someone who is actually not in control of the situation. If Steve Lansdown wants to stick with Lee Johnson because he believes things will change, then fair enough. However Lee Johnson is struggling and unless he learns to coach a consistent team and starts to develop then he is just a student who is learning at the clubs expense. Lets hope we’re not playing rovers next year and looking back on 15 years of meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I think we should sack the manager because we’re 14th? No. Do I think that if we want to be a top six team, consistently, we need a change in manager? Yes. Trouble is I don’t know what SL genuinely wants. He said he wants improvement on last season, but didn’t back that up in the summer.

RedRock Posted November 24, 2018 Report Share Posted November 24, 2018 No panic lads. Some of us realised we were in a relegation fight 6 or so weeks ago. Pretty sure LJs computer/team of analysts would have told him that was the case around the same time. We’ve just be coasting for a few matches waiting for the big one versus Ipswich. Absolutely massive game for him. If he loses that computer says ‘sack’. If he doesn’t win against either Ipswich or Millwall he’ll be gone. SL ain’t stupid 1) he can see actual attendances plummeting and that 2) dropping back to League 1 isn’t an option and 3) he’ll see through the LJ/MA froth and call out that recruitment, tactics and selection is a shambles with performances to match. Sure LJ is hurting more than me over the loss now. Want us to win but, frankly, if we lose that hastens key departures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the simple fact is good coaches do not allow such massive swings in form. It speaks to someone who is actually not in control of the situation. Perhaps, there are certainly issues that need to be addressed. If Steve Lansdown wants to stick with Lee Johnson because he believes things will change, then fair enough. However Lee Johnson is struggling and unless he learns to coach a consistent team and starts to develop then he is just a student who is learning at the clubs expense. Note that I haven't actually been arguing in defense of LJ tonight. I am fighting against the bullshit and hyperbolic exaggerations that get spread on here, which if unchallenged become accepted as fact. Lets hope we’re not playing rovers next year and looking back on 15 years of meh I'd confidently bet that we won't be, and not just because Rovers are struggling too!

That would have had us just outside last year relegation zone, quite telling figures whether you want to believe them or not. Your point? Last seasons form is completely irrelevant to this season because we have since sold multiple key players. Is this seasons form good? No Is it abysmal? No. Nothing to do with "believing" the numbers you have given me, because I haven't been making any arguments about our form, until my 2 lines in bold.

Fully agree with your last line, I’ve defended him when I felt he deserved it and criticised him likewise. I don’t think he’s the man to take us any further than what we presently are, but I’m not going to be part of the mob trying to hound him out of the club when we’re mid table, when the evidence from the top suggests that we’re happy to be exactly that. Another couple of defeats and there will be questions to answer however, I don’t see how he can survive another relegation battle. Wins against Ipswich and Millwall and we’ll be as close of not closer to 6th than 22nd, it’s pretty tight all the way though as it normally is. Defeats against both in the worst case....well it doesn’t bear thinking about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I think we may be surprised today, a few out for Leeds today. 2-2. @SR1 and @Cjay your thoughts on today ? Sorry didnt see this. Cant give pre match thoughts now :laugh:. Thought we were both very average till the sending off, neither looked like scoring. After it then we started to play and deserved the win in the end. Lord knows what Lee Johnson was smoking before his little media chat. Thats a man under real pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
