Sandhurst Red Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Forgive yet another thread, but this is of genuine interest. Yesterday we didn't register a single shot on target until the 83rd minute and that was Brownhill's Free-Kick. No offence to Preston, but they have struggled on their travels this year and that stat alone is simply shocking. Can anyone recall any other game and the length of time it took to do the obvious? Also, the fact that there was complete silence when Preston scored and no-one seemed to care just summed up yesterday's farce for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swanker Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 Form since last Christmas has been pretty poor really. Make no mistake this is relegation form! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brentford at home in April this year, failed to have even one shot on target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember a game in Osman's time at Grimsby in which Wayne Allison had our first shot around the 83rd minute. Ie was a twenty yard screamer that bounced six times and trickled into the keepers hands. We went ape with delight and Osman was not amused!

Mr Popodopolous Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Brentford at home was very bad- but it was vs a very good side in form whereas we were in poor form at that time and we set up wrong to boot. I feared the worst that day. This was worse IMO- yes the stats make it look better but we were up against a less than sound defensive unit, with a poor away record and yet for a lot of the game they looked really quite comfortable. Didn't think we would score at all Saturday- neither of those outcomes any good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is I can’t see where any improvement is going to come from and it looks to me like he’s running out of ideas. What is worrying is the lack of goals. if he turns this around I’ll be surprised.

Sadly I feel the same, all our hopes now seem to be on Eisa and Adelukan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xiled Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Hang on, we had one shot on target? That's easily enough to win a game. Norwich won 2-0 last year with zero shots on target. And look where they are now! https://www.90min.com/posts/4903483-norwich-create-bizarre-stat-line-by-beating-brighton-2-0-without-a-single-shot-on-target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerrainly not defending LJ but you can pick any period of games to prove a point. If we were to average 1.00 ppg we would end up on 51. We are currently averaging 1.29.

southvillekiddy Posted November 12, 2018 Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 Get Mo involved asap. he isn't afraid to have a pop at the goal. He won't wait to have it on a plate before he shoots, in his 3 cameo appearances so far he's shown that if it's not happening he will take it on on his own.
