Can anybody point out how many goals we've conceded 85 minutes or later this season and how many points it's lost us?

Be careful, someone on here will call you a naughty name for even suggesting we concede late regularly.

If we'd been two goals up, it would not have mattered.
You should never defend a one goal lead.

It'll be fine this time though, cos we will be right up there challenging next season and it will be fun.

I seem to remember us saying the same thing when we got relegated from the Premiership and the Championship!

That's the point, we can't score two goals.

How many times have we scored more than one goal this season? I know Slade has made some debatable decisions, but shutting up shop at 1-0 is for a reason. We aren't good enough to score two goals. We gamble, miss chance after chance, then get punished.

if we can score 1 we can score 2. its about putting ball in net. its not a video game where level gets harder after you get 1.

shutting up shop is fine if it works like jose teams. but if its not worked 3 or 4 times you should try something different like attacking.

It really that isn't simple for us.

How many times have we scored more than one goal (in the league) this season?

Maybe a final substitution over those last couple of minutes would have been handy.
So assuming we're down, the likely numbers, make the Ricoh implausible.
I think we should head for the Butts and at least make the experience feel like a reasonably full ground.

Can we trick them that it's rugby so we can get a beer outside at least?

no idea

doesnt matter though because since game 11 of this season IN MY OPINION we have not had a proper manager.

mowbray struggled but io have no doubt we wouldnt bottom if we had stayed and we would have scored alot more goals than we have

same goes for a new manager coming in. one that has tactics. it will lead to goals.

and actually same goes for slade now. he can get us scoring more than 1 a game if he looks at his tactics

CC4life, I think we finally know where you stand on this, it took us 83 of your posts but we got there.
Maybe a good time to move on and let this go

I think the answer is 6 times.

No manager has done well, because the players are fucking awful.

It has been a problem for a number of seasons.

70 per cent of winning goals are scored in the last 15 minutes. But to concede in the last 5 minutes regularly is obviously a problem.

The normal causes are: fitness, concentration, poor decision making and a lack of confidence in defending set pieces. Also defending too deep and inviting pressure will bring law of averages into play.

i know what your point is but you didnt like jacob murphy. now your entitled to your opinion but its clear we rate players differently.

whilst this squad aint a dream team. they should be doing better than 22pts or whatever it is right now

A lot of that is because of bad tactics, as soon as we get a lead we go negative and go backs against the wall for the rest of the match
