Despite our threadbare defence, we've actually conceded the 3rd lowest goals in the league so far this season.

1st - Scunthorpe - 8 conceded
2nd - Chesterfield - 9 conceded
3rd - Southend - 10 conceded
4th - Rochdale/Mansfield - 11 conceded

By contrast, we've also scored the 4th lowest goals in the league so far.

1st - Accrington - 7 scored
2nd - Northampton/Plymouth - 8 scored
3rd - Bristol Rovers - 10 scored
4th - Southend - 12 scored

Nice to see that Brown is clearly doing something right to set the team up defensively as the stats don't lie! Credit to the back 4 and Dan Bentley.

If we can get Corr back in form and Eastwood fit and firing, we're not actually a million miles away from getting out of this bloody league!



I'm all out of optimism now :thumbsup: UTB!
 
Imagine how good the stat would look if we prevented even half of our set piece goals against us!!!

I would expect us to score more goals as Payne becomes involved more - along with Hurst, he seems our most creative threat.

I think the daggers game showed just how much defence isnt down the the back 5 but the team as a whole.

We have conceded a few frustrating goals but they are only that because we havent scored enough.

Fully agree. We have Laird to come back soon hopefully though and we look a more solid side with him in it. Let's hope he can hit the ground running.
