    Was thinking last night that in a lot of the games where we have dropped points we have often been un-done by brilliant individual strikes. Boro Skates etc etc.

    Shows how the other players/teams have raised their games against us and makes this sides achievements this season even more worthy. Just hope Coventry don't maintain the trend.

    Probably because they have to score from distance, whereas our goals tend to be well worked but only a couple would feature on goal of the month.

    Teams press us hard, so it's no surprise we don't score many from range. Morgan is good at closing players down to stop them getting clean strikes away and I feel we've had some difficulty while hr's been out.

    Reading being an exception.
    Gave Roberts far too much space for that header. They didn't need world beaters from 35yds that day.
