12 games this season, just 1 first half goal

And that was from the Bolton defender giving the ball away!

11 league games, 1 League Cup game. 

We are not going to get anywhere this season writing off half a game.

    Now Leaburn and Godden are both fully fit, hopefully we can start 2 actual strikers up top. That might help!

    That's what happens when your main strikers start on the bench.

    And also with only scoring one goal first half means that we are not winning at HT. Check the stats when we score first to when we concede first.

    I wonder if in the first half of a training session everyone stands around watching Edwards pass the ball to Gillesphy, who passes to Mitchell, who gives it back to Gillesphy who gives it back to Edwards?

    Wonder if they can sell half game tickets, so those of us that want to see us going for the win can turn up at half time.

    Don't be silly.

    A lot of the time it goes back to the keeper as well.
  • My old dad used to say we were a second half team.

    You’re living in cloud cuckoo land wondering about four consecutive successful passes

    Well they’re not practising shooting, that’s for sure…

    We are a good side out of possession against a Birmingham or a Bolton but when a side drops off and asks to play with the ball we are awful especially in that midfield unit we have

    It’s not really like that though is it? How many half times have we gone in 0-0? I’m not actually asking, but just saying if we are drawing in lots of our games but still end up winning them in 90, then we absolutely will get somewhere.

    Id be quite happy if we win the rest of our home games 1 nil with the winner in the 90th minute every time. 
  • Yeah that’s all very good, but what’s the XG?

    Surprised more people don’t seem to find out first half blanking bizarre. Must be the worst return in our history

    Still think the balance of the team is all wrong particularly at home, far too many negative midfielders and let’s be honest the forwards are fairly hopeless in front of goal.

    Still not sure NJ is up to it, but we will see.
