Never got this cliche. How often do you watch a game, see the first goal go in and think ‘that wasn’t important’ .

Any body no the odds on us to win? As an away banker for me.

Under Robins, we’ve barely lost or even dropped points when we’ve scored the first goal. So far, we’ve only picked up 4 points from a losing position (QPR and Norwich).
don’t forget Derby
In for a fair bit of rain Saturday which will suit them. Could be an old school slog.
Under Robins, we’ve barely lost or even dropped points when we’ve scored the first goal. So far, we’ve only picked up 4 points from a losing position (QPR and Norwich).
Last season we were good coming from behind, but that’s more of an exception to the rule.
Objectively, the first goal, more often than not, determines the outcome of the game.
Edit add Derby. Make it 5 points.
This season we have gone a goal down in alot of games, and have come back to equalise or go ahead (Watford).
But problem has been we been searching for winner and ended up losing late to Bristol City/Forest/Watford. After equalizing.
With 5 points from losing positions, it makes us one of the best teams in the division, believe it or not. Mind you, we've had plenty of opportunities from deficits, given we've conceded first 10 times!
Stop Jacobson and you stop their supply. That means don’t give away corners or free kicks near the box.
Easy to say but these refs seem to get a bit star struck around the lump and he gets given most of the 50/50 decisions, every time Leo beats him in the air he will be demanding a free kick.
From memory he just stands still and draws fouls from defenders jumping over him.
He does, you need to get in front of him every time to avoid it, if it went over both of you and it was a race unless we are playing a guy with one leg you would still beat him.
Would anyone settle for a drab crap draw? Another point away from home and move on to HuddersfieldWin this game and;
Be just 9 points from play offs - If your a supreme optimist
And 9 points from bottom 3.
Big game! Be a drab crap draw.

9 points off bottom 3 is actually huge as teams at that end average a point a game or thereabouts.Win this game and;

No draws are okay against Luton and Blues but we need to win against the teams around us.

How would we have done if games stopped at 80 minutes?
Last season we were good coming from behind, but that’s more of an exception to the rule.
We’d never get to use any subsHow would we have done if games stopped at 80 minutes?
Now do 70 minsBored so just looked at this for you
If like Rugby Union, the ref blew his whistle at the 80min stage, 6 of our league games would have different results.
Bristol City - Draw, they scored in the last 10, we would have gained a point
QPR - Draw, McFadz got our winner on 85, we lose 2 points
Forest - Draw, K Walker with their winner just before the end, another point earned
Middlesboro - Draw, both of Boros goals in the last 10, a point picked up
Watford - Draw, and another point on our stats
Norwich - Lost, Max's equaliser in the 89th would have been wiped so we would have lost a point.
Which would have meant we picked up 1 point in total.
If you include the Carabao Cup, we won against MK Dons with a goal in the last 10 and may not have exited the cup in the next round if the Gills equaliser was cancelled out.

This is Max Biamou’s lifeThe expert commentators (Clive) always tell us that the third goal is important too. Maybe all even-numbered goals are trivial. Imagine scoring a hattrick only to be told that the second was of no interest to anyone. That's bad man-management right there.

Now do 70 mins
Okay
70 Mins, still the 6 games affected.
Bristol C, would have been a draw 1-1 - gained 1 pt
Middlesboro, a 0-0 draw - gained 1 pt
Reading, we were drawing 1-1 at 70 mins - lost 2 pts
Forest, a 1-1 draw - gained 1 pt
Watford, would have ended 2-2 - gained a point
Norwich, we would have lost 1-0 - lost a point
Change in points gained - 1 point for finishing earlier.
And because you asked so nicely, if by some quirk of fate, the Football League said all results were final after 60 mins, 4 games affected (we would have still won vs Reading but by less and a loss to Watford still).
Bristol C would have been a draw
Middlesboro a draw
Forest a draw
Norwich we lost.
Change in points - 2 points to the better.
I'm not doing 45 mins
Thanks. I’m just a lazy bastard. Anyone want to volunteer for 45?Okay
