Why is scoring suddenly an issue for us?
Views: 801
2 goals across our last 5 games.
Now granted that's two draws on the road, two 1-0 victories, and a 1-0 defeat away at high flying Derby but it does make me wonder what's going on.
Not a crisis and in our two games before that we managed to score twice in each (losing 2-3 in one and drawing 2-2 in the other).
Looking back and this year it's something like 12 goals in 13 which isn't bad but what are we missing?
We're still 1pt and 1 game in hand clear in that last playoff slot so we move onwards but it's got to be a point of slight concern.

You are really silly. Some of us had Wayne Turner.

Fat Bastard went back in time to the 60s and stole our mojo. That could be the storyline of Austin Powers 2 though.

League One defenders have reduced the viability of set pieces as a source for goals which hurts us.

We haven?t scored many all season compared to the teams around us. Been too reliant on Reidy too, so now he isn?t scoring it becomes a problem.

We're just not a free scoring side at this level. We haven't been all season. On the flip side, we don't often take a battering either. When Taye is in goal ?

The only decent striker we have is Reid.

I personally thought we looked most effective early in the season when we were playing the ball into Pressley's feet, with Reid and Robbo off him. Sadly, he was then out the team and when he came back we persisted in lauching it to his head (not his game IMO). Now it looks like his confidence has completely gone. Not that surprising when we are signing players like Oliver instead!

Can't answer that until we know what league we are in!
