All of our home league losses have been by one goal. Explanations?

We're not very good defensively. 9 cleansheets which is the same as last season when we were relegated. Only 3 teams have kept less cleansheets - carlisle, Colchester and bury

On the issue of clean sheets, I tweeted CWR asking how many CB partnerships we have had this season which may play a part in that. Suppose you could expand that to how many different back 4s we've had too! Both answers would be in double figures I bet! That in itself can't help things

(Am still waiting on Clive to look into this; or at least he said he would but I think he was having me on )

Which is why I can't understand the clamour from some to keep the likes of Edge and Wood.

Too many mistakes too often. Too often beaten for pace and too often responsible for very poor marking.

If it were me I would be looking for at least 3 centre backs in the Summer, retaining only Jordan Willis.

We've had a few but I would say wood and edge have played at least half the season together and ever present under robins.

Looking at the squads, our most consistent back four was Christe Wood Edge and Adams. They played 10 games consecutively just before the turn of the year, which I think was also our more successful period this season

We still only kept 2 cleansheets in the league while Adams played (15 league games) - hartlepool away and Tranmere at home.

Yea I agree, our defence has been poor throughout. Only difference then was we were scoring for fun before the new year.
