but being unlucky doesn't account for the fact that we're not doing enough to beat Southend at home.

This team is not going anywhere near up.

It's called dominating in a way that we create chance after chance. We don't.
 



Based on the last 100 years we were all unlucky to be football fans born in the vicinity of Sheffield.

We should really be wiping the floor with these no mark teams at this level. Wolves, Norwich,Southampton had a blast at this level.

Only we fuck it up.
 
Yeh we probably was unlucky and have been unlucky several times this season.

We have this terribly habit of conceding goals against the run of play when we're playing well and on top in a game.

You can blame bad luck for 1 off games but if it occurs over a number of games something is wrong.

I'd love to know the stats on late goals scored. It seems that for the past few years I've remembered us conceding loads of late decisive goals but can hardly remember us scoring late winners.

Yes, but not the case yesterday in the first half. While Long hadn't had a shot to save really, they were on top and most of our small number of attacks seemed to be when countering. We were dire in that first half.

Doesn't really prove much over the last one-and-a-bit seasons, however we are good from 60 minutes onwards - even this season. Under Warnock, our record for pulling results out of the fire was terrific. What top teams do do is turn one point into 3 late in the game. We had yet another chance yesterday, but lack the cutting edge or determination. Just watch how many times Coventry & Wigan do it. :(

Yesterday we didn't concede against the run of play or when we were on top.

We're conceding this season mainly because we're shit.

Interesting. It may indicate that our fitness isn't good enough as we're conceding twice as many as we're scoring after 75 minutes.
