tinman85 Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 We seem to struggle at home to break teams down. Burton, Millwall, Preston. Also some dire games like Bolton. I do feel we are better set up away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petehinton Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 We struggle to break down teams that come to not be broken down/come for a point. We carved open Derby, and played well against Cardiff too. We probably will have more joy on the road than we have done in recent years, as the likes of Burton/Bolton/Millwall etc won't set up the same way at home as they do away.

Super Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 Preston didn't come for a point. They had pretty much all the chances in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. Alex Neil does not set his sides up to park the bus. Knew this before the game and thought it would play into our hands. But alas, they were just a better team than us on the night.

BobBobSuperBob Posted November 22, 2017 Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 Said early in season that the way we play and set up , that we might get nearly as many points away from home as at home A theme through modern football I'd suggest (Would like to see home / away point percentages across their leagues over last 10-15years ) Many / Most sides are set up to and at their best on the counter attack , and we are certainly one In an ideal world We and all sides would either be so good / superior to opposition that our style / method didn't matter , or have two entirely ways of playing home and away , if it was only that simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite right, there a good side clearly given a boost last night by players returning from injury. We were poor but to be fair PNE are certainly not a Milwall, Burton type side. Not surprised they had a good start to the season up until there bad spell mainly due to injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not make top 6 either. so we will probably end up about where 90% of the posters on here would be happy for us to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
