Conceding too many goals
#3
Obviously we are conceding too many goals and it is worrying that we do so at bad times in games, but I'm convinced that whole teams concede goals, not just back fours. The results, our league position, and our style combine to equal the best in my lifetime as a supporter and at 62 that makes it 55 years. Maybe a little tinkering might make a difference, maybe we need Boco on the pitch not the bench or something, but was Cooper so much better than a guy who played Europa Cup last season to make such a radical change worthwhile?

Long term I think we need to sign a permanent replacement for Cooper, due to Hird's injury. Cheyenne Dunkley at Kidderminster always seems capable of playing higher, but would require a fee, otherwise Halifax are worth looking at or a much cheaper gamble might find the answer at Buxton .............

What we are doing is so refreshing Pooch is absolutely right to enjoy it. I listened to Mr Cook after the game on Saturday and I wanted to applaud. He talked about having a bit of class in defeat. He did! In spades. I was proud that we weren't blaming the ref, the pitch, the opposition's sour attitude, or whatever. He praised Bristol, but he wants to go out and put things right against Oldham. Whether that works out for us or not I like winning or losing with style!
