Hotmale 1954 Â Â 195 #1 Posted August 27, 2017 I'm now very confused. The reason given for us only scoring one and not steamrollering teams is because they know our style and set out to frustrate us? Yesterday, Burton came at us hammer and tongs for 95 minutes. We just scored the mandatory one goal. See why I'm confused? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Â The answer is (and always will be) that we don't create enough, narrow wingers and full backs who predominantly do the crossing is stifling the forward line. We have (by luck) avoided conceding goals through hard work and being well organised at the back, that wont last unless we recruit.

Yesterday, Burton came at us hammer and tongs for 95 minutes. We just scored the mandatory one goal. See why I'm confused?  Don't we know Burton's style? Can't we set out to frustrate them? Can't we go at them hammer and tongs for 95 minutes? I'm as confused as you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Need to win the next two at home though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ALAN 58 Â Â 10 #6 Posted August 27, 2017 September could be a defining month for us. Five games, three at home, next one against Forest who are playing some good stuff and one of them a derby. An away game at high flying Cardiff then round the month off at Brum. I would like to think we could get ten points from those games but i cannot see it, way things are turning out at the moment, more like seven and keeping the run intact is how it will turn out with our luck.

Hotmale 1954 Â Â 195 #10 Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) We're better than a nil or one team. We could be great value for money every game, entertaining, dangerous and frightening. But we're not. I know Carlos can get the team 'up and at 'em' I just want to see a few more 3's and 4's. One is not amused.
