We score when we want

[BernardMatthews]

Against Newcastle this was ringing around the ground, think someone needed to tell the players it's just a song.

I haven't been buying into all the doom and gloom, performances against Man Utd and Everton were both deserving of something. Sloppy defending and poor finishing has been our downfall, more so than tactics.

Will use two comparisons to back this up. West Brom away v Everton away and Everton home v Man Utd home.

Stats on both games are extremely similar, only difference our inability to score goals. And in Utd's case their clinical finishing.

Fact is we are dominating teams but not scoring, if these stats were reversed and we were losing I would be more concerned. We just need to take our chances.

1/4 of the season to go, right now I would rather have our fixture list than the Chavs or the Scum.
Scum have City and Chelsea at home, Stoke and Everton away.
Chavs have trips to Citeh, Scum and Klanfield, us and Newcastle at home.

i also think we have the nicest run in to the end.
i dont see us losing many if any of the last 10.
3rd is still ours to lose, which i dont see us doing.
so no problems really.

Confidence is vital though - we need to turn those possession figures into something a little more contributory to the outcomes of the game otherwise a team like Sunderland, Fulham or Stoke will consider us an eminently winnable fixture.

I still stand by the idea we should finish third but the cuntholes down the road have the wind in their sails so we can afford no more slip ups.

Thing is about THEM, is that in life, people who always leave things to the last minute, tend to breeze through life, getting all the credit for something they put about 5 minutes of effort into!
The ONLY crumb of satisfaction I can gain from how those gooner cu n ts go about winning games, is the infinitely high levels of heart rate their fans must be having during each game... a couple more last gasp winners should finish at least a FEW of them off!!
