We created enough chances in the first half to have gone in a couple of goals up but we maybe don't create enough over the course of the game. To say we don't even try though is ridiculous.

The thread title does say 'scoring the first goal' which in most away games as been our problem.

The bigger concern for me is having no plan whatsoever how to get back into these games when we go behind, as I'd guess that the away side goes behind in over 50% of games.
Not sure if you've watched the game, not even trying? Utter nonsense.
Not even sure this is something that will improve next season under Bruce. It's a mentality thing for me, and if he hasn't managed to improve it in nearly 6 months, I'm not sure why he will in the next 6. The way he plays means that if we concede, because our mentality was cautious to start with, we struggle to change even though we need to.

Not taking our chances though is also costing us though like it has done a few times this season.
By my reckoningUnder RDM If we scored first we were W1 D3 L1 if they scored first we were W0 D2 L2Under SB If we score first W9 D4 L1 if they score first W1 D1 L9For a total ofWe score W10 D7 L2 they score W1 D3 L11Plus there's been two 0-0 games.
where are the actual statistics? This thread is talking about stats that are not available. You need to give a link to the figures you are using or the rest of us are in the dark and cannot comment.
Other teams when losing throw the shackles off and play like they've got nothing to lose, look at Preston at VP. We just continue to play in the same manner, we never seem to just go hell for leather and throw everything at it.
