We have a suspect keeper who concedes just over 2 goals a game. In his last 13 games, he has conceded 28 goals.

James Brown is injured, since November we've only once had two league 1 quality strikers up front for 90 minutes, which was when Nardiello and Porter played the full 90 against Brighton.

We almost had two decent strikers up front for 90 mins against Huddersfield but Nardiello got sent off just after half time. We almost had two decent strikers up front for 90 mins against you but Porter got injured before the match. We may have two decent strikers up front tomorrow, you never know.

We've relied too much on Porter, Brown and Monkhouse's goals. The rest of the team haven't chipped in as much as we would have liked.

When we do play well, we concede lots of late goals and turn well earned victories into draws and well earned draws into defeats. Usually we self destruct.

Hence why we're struggling.

We have some very decent players but unless we are playing a team with no wingers we will concede. In the FA Cup for example, we beat Stoke who played down the middle but lost to West Ham who tore us to bits down the flanks. We have the capacity to score but concede goals to roughly 50 - 60% of shots against us. In short, we ship goals easily.

We're just a really nice team who doesn't want to embarrass the other teams in the league too often.

UP NOW: Leicester (probably Champions as well) - coasting the League.
PROMOTED: One slip-up by MK Dons and it could be Peterborough (how, I don't know?)
PLAY-OFFS: Scunthorpe to win at Wembley

RELEGATED: All 4 Clubs are worse than we are, they shuld all go down.
