Unbeaten away, struggling at home 12:56 - Oct 10 with 1070 viewsStainrod

Struggling to assess where we are.

We are unbeaten away because that defensive nucleus of Dunne, JCS and Ronnie in front of Prince Charles must be as good as any in the league. Really superb, and in turn protected by Madsen and Kamara who is a revelation in being able to get us up the pitch.

Smyth is also an unsung hero at just driving us forward and relieving pressure.

If we can get draws at the likes of WH and WBA with the occasional 3 points away at teams we get on the break that is more than good enough in terms of away form.

But I honestly don’t know where we will pick up enough wins if we can’t beat those “lesser” teams at home when we have more than 50% possession.

Will enough goals come at home?

We are creating chances but maybe our strikers just not clinical enough?

Can Madsen recapture a bit of that sparkle from last season and really boss a game?

If Chair comes back and Poku continues to grow, might we be OK?

At around the 10 game mark am cautiously optimistic, even excited, but I can’t honestly predict where we finish with even vague accuracy.

Yeah it’s definitely becoming an issue. Major hype over the dramatic comeback over Preston, but in the cold light of day , two points dropped. Ditto Bolton . Give us those four points and it’s a different perspective on our home form entirely. Yes, you can argue that West Ham is a point clawed back that we didn’t expect and possibly WBA too. But most successful teams have a strong home record so we need to improve that quite urgently - beginning with Derby hopefully

I think the goals will come at home if we keep creating the chances we have so far.

Though a bit of an exaggeration to say Wednesday is a crucial game... it is though a very important one.

Only one win in 6 games with 4 draws .... we are really in need of a win Wednesday

The injuries certainly are not helping, but even with the injuries our play should be getting us wins rather than draws.

I'm really hoping that finally we click against Derby and get the goals our football deserves. Anything short of a win and I think the confidence may just start to falter a little

No win in five but there’s a weird positivity around the place.

One day we’ll find a reincarnation of the goal machine Andy Thompson
If we had a striker in hot form this first quarter of the season we’d be top; sadly we lack some finishing guile.

Need it on Wednesday

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

Does seem like a pivotal game. Another misfire and we'll be back in mid table. We're not really doing as well as 6th might imply.

Poll: QPR to finish 7th or Brentford to drop out of the top 6?

Yes, I'm hoping we can make the stretch for a new striker in January even if it means we have to sell to finance it. Unfortunately injuries are also beginning to make us look short in both senses on the wings.
