Take Hunt Off Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Sheff Utd had a bad start Scunthorpe have not really had a bad run apart from losing to Oldham & dropping home points to the better teams . They haven't had too many injuries either....but goal difference is good indicator of ability & they score a lot more goals than we do & the games they win they do so by bigger margins. Comparing our current team with the promotion winners from this division of yesteryear isn't easy but both previous teams (1971 & 1991 ?) were better imo.

Ani Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Based on everything we know we are in best 4 teams in division so far. A lot depends on who signs who in Jan and what trams have when injuries and suspensions kick in. Our defence will paper over short comings elsewhere. People over reacting to one shit performance after 5 wins on the run need to give their head a wobble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before yesterday's matches we had a better GD, although obviously based on defence rather than scoring, which we need to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Take Hunt Off Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Scunny's goal difference is 21 ! Sheff Utd granted is only 11 but they have banged two fours recently & six in the cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunnerFan Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 The lad that is scoring all the goals for Scunthorpe could hardly get a game at Bratfurt last year. Hoping he's a flash in the pan rather than bad judgement from Parky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancWanderer Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 That was fucking awful yesterday but at the end of the day it's just one defeat If we go on another shit run then I'll be worried but for now I'll just take it as a bad away day.

Can we not just nick their scout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Another England captain also played up front for them Was anyone else at Burnden when he scored that vollley against our reserves? What a strike it was. Edited November 15, 2016 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
