After scoring 1st at home, looks like we have only twice lasted longer than 9 mins without conceding.

Both times we kept a clean sheet.
Cheltenham & Wigan.

Someone should verify that tho.

Certainly the wags behind me said at least lets try and keep the lead for more than two mins when we went 2-1 up.

At the moment teams are coming to try and beat us. That is different from the past when they looked to park the bus. Now instead of trying not to let in another when we score they really come at us and this has been pretty successful for them so far.

Often it feels like every player is just kacking it all the time, we score and they take a breather.
That's a leadership the pitch thing surely.

Poor bastid defenders are probably clapped out from having to score most of the goals and then having to get back and defend also.

Teams will always think that they should be going to a side 4th or 5th from bottom of the league and beating them. And with good cause under Hypia because we were being over-run by teams , even at home.

Under Hughton we are showing teams that when you come to us, if you open up that we will score goals against you and the more that happens, the more teams will come and defend and when it does we will get more of the game, so conceding goals is a worry but I think it will lessen, the more time CH gets to work with the players on the training ground. Apart from the Brentford matches under Hughton we have for the most part been the better side and that's progress and long may that continue until we get to safety

The stat holds
If we last over 9 mins without conceding after scoring the first goal at home, we keep a clean sheet.
