Lostock Whites Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 How about we be the team that scores first. Pretty much every match, we have conceded within the first 20/30 minutes. Here are the examples; Leeds(H)- 7th Min Derby(H)- 8th Min Hull (A)- 13th Min Boro (H)- 13th Min Sheff U(H)- 33rd Min West H(A)- 4th Min This isn't a coincidence. This is a trend that needs to be addressed, as we are simply not giving ourselves a chance against very dangerous teams. The blame has to go to the concentration of the players, and the tactics of the manager. We need to be the one attacking and not making it easy for opposition, and get off to an early goal. Hopefully we will see at Brentford, but I have little hope unfortunately. Quote
Traf Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 First half hour of league games this season, Scored 0 Conceded 8 Quote
Eavesy Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 A number of them games we were playing well and then they got a goal from there first attack. Certainly happened at home. We've started matches well and I've felt positive but then some arse will bag one from there first shot. Quote

I think our problem though, is that it is simply too easy to score against us. All it takes for the opposition is one good attack, and they have breached our defence. I know we are not scoring, but I think the defence is the priority, as a poor defence isn't given us any chance to get something. Quote

gonzo Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 I think we should be focusing on scoring more than Brentford on Saturday as well as conceding less. If we score more and concede less we will win. Quote

gonzo Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 Where would you emphasise? When we have the ball, attacking. When they have the ball, defending. Quote
Lostock Whites Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 Ever tried football management? Yeah have done. Took Plymouth from League 2 to Champions League and Prem winners on Football Manager 16. I think I am ready to be the next Bolton Wanderers manager. Quote

waffer cup 07 Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Hopefully back from Spain in time for our first win of the season. 3-1. Noone double and Madine. Quote
MalcolmW Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 2-1 Armstrong and Madine for us, pass on their goal scorer. In fact I couldn't name you a single player who has ever played for Brentford. Patsy Hendren. Quote
Lostock Whites Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 get this mon asap. doubt anyones' got credentials better. Didledee may be better option though Thanks. I have big plans, I also want to expand the Macron's capacity to 85,000. Quote
White on Tyne Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Hopefully back from Spain in time for our first win of the season. 3-1. Noone double and Madine. I think I'd have to agree with you that Noone will score for us. Quote
marple whites Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 This is a must win - simple as that. However, they will come and be compact and try to frustrate the team and then the crowd, opening up a bit in the second half to try and win the game. We saw it loads 2 seasons ago. Quote

captainmed Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 We're over-priced. I'm not saying we will win mind. What i am saying though is if we lose our next 2 were as good as relegated Quote

captainmed Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 Are you attending or have you given up on them ? I'll never give up. Seen far far worse than this current shite. Didn't miss an away game for years in the dark mid 80's..... Ref 2mrr, i'm doing the Uni run as the lad is going back. We'll be @ Villa though. Quote
