    We've scored one in open play, one penalty and I'm struggling think of an occasion where we've forced the opposition's keeper into a save.

    Absolutely horrendous today and it's clear this is the style of football Johnson wants to play. Unfortunately it's neither effective nor entertaining.

    That's me done with away games for now.

    I thought we'd at least sorted the defence out. But we haven't. Rochdale could have easily doubled their 3.

    Another long season awaits. Unless we recruit further and organise em properly.

    Roberts and Mawson had very poor games and to be fair the margin of defeat could have been larger

    Very true. But the majority of games this season they have looked very good. I prefer to take the evidence from the majority so far and believe they will be ok than one game.

    Yep I've been to the same four. I agree with every word you said. Wednesday was superb entertainment but all the other games I've seen have been awful. Not looking good at all....

    I did mention a few times at the end of last season LJ's philosophy is about defensive play with one upfront it's the formation he played during his time at Oldham.

    So I based on what we have scored so far this season I guess you think we are ok up front then.

    Aye. Two games where we fired blanks and two others where we scored one and were very fortunate to score one of those. Should be more than ok.
