It was the same post Post Vale.

Is it only when we lose ??

Some of the draws we have this season have been like a loss imho as we have had loads of chances.
For all the frustration about missed chances (thought Bowman and Williams both very guilty yesterday), the problem remains at the other end.

We have conceded more goals than any other side in the top 15 except Morecambe.
No other team in the whole division have scored more than us except Cambridge and Cheltenham

We need a manager who likes to keep it tight for 75 minutes then try and sneak a winner :D

Yes we are conceding too many goals however it isn't just the back line at fault, the midfielders need to take a fair bit of the blame, we are conceding a lot of goals on the break, teams seem to be able to slice through the middle of us.

If we had been more clinical in front of goal I think we would be up there with Newport, we have missed a shed load of chances this season.

Our games are often enjoyable to watch though, it's a tough balancing act.

Our league form is 1 win in 5 despite playing relatively well.

Need to pick up a win or two soon if we want to stay around the top 3.

Rovers have just signed a promising young manager known for his defensive shrewdness. Could be worth a look?

Are you still actually salty about Tisdale calling you out after what is it... 4 years now?

I'm really enjoying the 4-2-3-1 formation we are going with this year, and wouldn't change it, but it is leaving us more defensively exposed

we are now the same number of points (3) away from 13th as we are from 3rd place.
