That's very short sighted, isn't it. Like most of the postings in this thread. We are not badly placed in the league considering our total ineptitude in front of goal. We aren't far short of being in the top 6, I think we are exactly where we should be in the table at the moment.

With all these massively awful stats, I can't see how the majority still purely ignore the information put out there?
More so, how much longer does the board let the stats worsen before something happens to improve things?
We must surely have the worst 'comeback' record in Football League history by now??!!

It's does appear the love affair with Gus, has hit a bit of shaky ground with some on here.

Hopefully the board will sanction buying the strikers we need in EARLY January.

Short sighted would be complaining after 3 games without a win.
We're talking about 3 wins out of 16 combined with 68 games with no fight-back.
Short sighted?!
It's the similarity to last season, that's bugging me.
Sure last season was all about feeling our way, not losing, staying in the division, job done probably above expectation.
This year is almost a carbon copy but with better players.
A shored up defence that is still protected by 1, 2 and even 3 defensive midfielders.
An ineffectual left side, that is only occasionally addressed, but only for 1 game.
No attacking support from midfield.
No consistent team selection forward of LB.
Unused quality players, Dobbie and Dave.
Which would be understandable if we were f-ing brilliant, the stats and league position say otherwise.
Reliant on the brilliant Buckley who has never been effective for the full 90 minutes.
A centre forward playing like a rabbit in the headlights, because that's what he is.
Acutely aware that if he doesn't score, nobody else will.

Poyet has added 8 players to the squad that finished last season 9th and are we any better. Some would say yes, the table and stats would suggest otherwise.....Should we be any better
Well with eight new players and Poyet always saying, he never signs a player who isn't better than what we already have.....Make your own minds up.

Why buy strikerS, when only 1 is going to be used, and unsupported by the rest of the team.
If the ethos is going to change (why would it, what's happened to suggest it will) and the need for more goals leads to a selection of the following:-
- 2 strikers.
- Attacking wing play down both flanks.
- Centre circle to Box midfielder, support.
- Quick, one touch ball movement up the field.
Surely CMS deserves to be given the chance to flourish, instead of feeding off the scraps.

Because our strikers miss chance after chance after chance I reckon.
Hoskins alone missed 4 vs Forest.

Not so much a poor league, but an fairly even league.
Anyone can beat anyone (Cardiff v Peterborough).

Correct; they would have gone top if they had beaten us.
