When we had played 19 games I predicted to my chums that by the time we'd played 26 we'd be 14th and we would finish the season on 53 points and I am sticking with those positions.

10+ finish is nailed on for us.
19 Jan 2026 12:33:50
10+. Have I missed something here. We expecting the 4 below us plus spuds Bourne palace plus to finish below us.
Pass me the sherbet. Where as I do think we will need safe I also feel it’s going to be a scuffle.
2 have gone but the rest will fight for their lives.

Other clubs are falling down around us and collapsing while we strengthen.
19 Jan 2026 13:36:26
Strengthen how compared to others mot.

Bounenotte and that our players are getting better when forest, west ham, wolves, palace, Bournemouth are falling apart again.

Think some are getting a little carried away or have been smoking something!

According to the stats and data, Leeds are underperforming (xG and xPoints)
Leeds should be where Sunderland are
Burnley should be where Leeds are
And Sunderland should be where Burnley are
We aren't a piece of turd team, even before we hit our good run we had missed out 6-9 points through poor performance and bad luck.
Let's say the Fulham header doesn't go in and we win a game we should have won (Burnley or forest) and look where we would be in the table.
The idea that we deserve 16th at best is not based in reality.
I get the feeling of being a Leeds fan and how leedsy Leeds can be, and how having hope and optimism is often met with soul crushing defeat but we are underperforming. We're a mid table team as a newly promoted club.
We could be leedsy and collapse. We could keep rising the high and end where we should.
I'm keeping optimistic.
That, and I made a sportsman bet with Ed that we would finish 10+. I believe it.

Admire your optimism Mo, but to get to 10th we need to pass 6 teams. Everton are currently 10th on 32 pts to our 25 so we also have 7 points to make up. *I'll be charitable and just say "unlikely".
19 Jan 2026 20:00:09
We deserved to lose against NF and Burnley.
I do agree we dropped a good few points though. Fulham, Bournemouth and Brentford and also Sunderland are games which spring to mind. That’s a minimum 7 points there.
I suppose most teams will say the same?
Can’t think of many games where we were fortunate to pick up points. Probably the Liverpool games?

Football is always full of ifs and buts, but we're 16th because of our performances over the season so far. After 12 games we were 18th just behind Spam on GD with 11 points. Over the 10 games since then we have been the 9th best team in the league whilst they have been 19th hence our 8 point lead over them.
We just have to keep it up and we'll be fine, mebbe even up to 10th. ?.
20 Jan 2026 05:00:08
Currently sitting 5th in the form table over, I think, the last 10 games.
20 Jan 2026 14:27:19
Fraid not. Like I said above, over the last 10 games (Man City A to Fulham H) we're 9th, if you take it over 9 games (starting with Chelsea H) we're 6th but that's as good as it gets, but we're consistently in top 10 now.
