Sheehan has made just five appearances since arriving on loan at the end of January and was recently dropped before turning in his best display in the weekend win over Walsall.
Sheehan told the club's official website: "Being honest I'd have to say the standards I set for myself were unacceptable in those first four games.
"Coming on loan I wanted to play games and I didn't deserve to be in the team after my first four. I've had my chance now and hopefully I've taken it.
"On Saturday, I was really hoping I could show the Leeds fans and thank them for their patience.
"It's the same for the gaffer, Steve Staunton and Macca (Neil McDonald), who have all been excellent helping me. I owed it to them and the fans."

Acid Puppy (Leeds United fan)
"Its good to see a player show their honest opinion on their own displays, I thought he play "okay" in his first 4 games, yeah, not great though. Showed a lot better against the saddlers though and as fans that's all we ask of each player, show yourself, play for the club, wear the shirt with pride and do you best. Its a fight, nae a war in this league, and against the Authorities hell bent on trying a feck Leeds over. Here's to you Alan, keep up the workrate, and thats goes to all the players :) MOT"
