Seems to me you are to blame by not having Lancashire Hotpot every time we play....The naughty corner for you !I love a good fact or two!
I can assure you we will win today as I am cooking a lancashire hotpot for lunch. We always win when I cook a hot pot.
Obviously people are entitled to their opinions, but it does amaze me how negative this board has become in just a matter of weeks. I don't remember it being this bad even when we had Lee Clark etc.
Anyway, at the risk of upsetting people with some stats again (evidence, that's the new buzzword), of last season's top six, 50% of them had slow starts; two in particular:
Rotherham were 14th after 7 games and finished 2nd
Portsmouth were 19th after 7 games (with one win) and finished 5th
Oxford were 20th after 7 games (with one win) and finished 4th
Our race is not run after 7 games.
That's because some of us can see that at the moment we are going nowhere Abel. Game in game out it's getting worse not better and the quality of ball delivery into the box seems non existent. Nobody seems confident to run with the ball at defenders and into their penalty area in case it seems they can be blamed for not passing. Our number of shots from outside the box are almost non existent, as are the number of crosses that get put over whether quality or not. I am like others on this site very concerned with what we are watching. We all started off the season with great expectations but it is a long way from being delivered at this time. Your opinion will never upset me Abel-- your opinion is as always most welcome, though I may disagree with you from time to time.
A sticky date then Bear.
I think, unfortunately, you've missed the nuance of what I was saying. Never mind.Boring
There's none so blind as those that won't see. We wont win games without scoring no matter how many stats he throws at us.

Last season relegation from L1 a bit of a curveball because obviously you had Bury thrown out of the league and Bolton deducted points, which sealed two of the spots.Ok then. Now give us some stats where teams have been on or near the bottom after 7 games and ended up relegated.
I can report that the Lancashire hot pot was my best ever and will be as accurate as examining the entrails of a sacrificial goat in predicting the outcome. I wonder what odds one can get on Sexy's 4 nil scoreline ? My hopes are rising. If we win I shall celebrate with a fine traditional sweet pudding later.
love a good hotpot always have mine with pickled red cabbage
MK Franchise Home (22nd) Wimbledon Away (13th)
Burton Albion Away (24th)
Wigan Home (21st)
Anything less than 6 pts and he's gone.
So, 3 games into the 4.
2 wins and a loss that a lot of people have defined as "scrappy".
Not going to pretend that we have remotely turned a corner, but there's some light there. Optimistic going into the Wigan game?
