Unbeaten, yes, but a win and a defeat is better than 2 draws and we seem to be drawing a lot.
Or is this just a re-hash of the "be more attacking" theme? Probably.

Not necessarily. Had we beaten Donny and lost tonight, for example, we'd have one more point, but we'd be a further point behind Cardiff.
6 wins 5 draws 0 losses in 2012. Which of those would you choose to lose and which would you choose to win?
Dreadful choice of stats, it's 1 win in 6 to be EXACT & that is not good enough esp when 3 of our 4 best players this season lua lua, Buckley & noone (bridcutt) do not start, we were far too narrow & as soon as we go behind Gus admits it & puts 2 on...lua lua was our best player at anfield (better than England call up Downing) & not made the bench for next two, inexcusable call.

Let's remember who we're playing against - Huddersfield are drawing matches they SHOULD be winning (eg: they went three up at the weekend against Bury and conspired to draw). We were playing one of the better Championship teams who paid us the respect of an ultra defensive approach. We came back twice, and with a little luck would have won (hit the post, ref bottled a clear red card for their captain, their keeper made a number of very decent saves). Let's not get too upset by drawing a few games at this level.

We dominated the game and the stats agree. On the night we had good opportunity to grab the win (tonight's game could turn out to be a 6 pointer). On another night we would have got the first goal and go on to win the game comfortably. Hey ho, that's football for ya.
I think the draw was the bare minimum required if we want to push on and get into the PO's. The run-in is setting up to be exciting. Hopefully we can end the season just as we started it. Ahh, those heady days in the sun.
