Your comments dont take into account the tactics were deployed for an away game only. We dont play like that at home.

I dont like the 451 we played and to be fair Sturrock has stopped using it when at home when we play 442. He has kept it for away games and its hard to argue against it when it got results against Oxford and Torquay.

No. My comments are made taking good results into account.
We lost many points because of negativity at home as well, Aldershot, Rotherham, Accrington Stanley to name just three.

Yes, caution has helped win points away from home but that is because, IMO, we have good players. If those good players were 20% more positive over a season I reckon we would have achieved 5% more - and be smug in League One now.

Still, it is what it is. Is all about the next 12 days now!!!
