Going to need 14:32 - Aug 30 with 1650 viewscressi

Seventy five to eighty goals to get a decent chance of promotion
Defenders 5 if lucky hence what Mick Mills was saying Saturday
Midfield 35 to 40 if they all contribute
Now that leaves around 30 plus for the strikers.
Reason we DO need a goalscorer irrespective of the system we play

Only two teams have scored more goals so far with 13 to our 12...

Also have the joint best goal difference, relax.

We are averaging 2 goals per game based on the first 6 games of the season.

This equates to 92 goals over 46 games.

So, the stats so far show we don't need an out and out goal scorer to achieve what you are saying.

Haven't played anyone of note yet. Then we will see. I think we are still only around a 9th placed team. Wait till winter kicks in, pitches in this league become bogs. McKenna ball wont be so easy to play then, l think we will get found out.

Don't disagree we need our forwards to get scoring and take some of the load, but if we were to carry on at our current run rate we'll score 92 and concede 30, finishing on 107 points.

Under KM - we have around a 50% win record I think. Since the start of this season he appears to have already started to address the goal scoring issue - there is a marked improvement already over the previous season.

The evidence so far, points to heading in the right direction - I'm certainly not against improving the squad if we can but the system we play creates scoring opportunities for multiple players - even playing in poorer weather and poorer pitches, there is nothing to suggest this would dramatically change.

It's evident during matches that we create through a number of ways - for example, we are more than happy to play longer direct balls to the wing backs high up the pitch - we are not solely reliant on playing through the middle.

If you finish 9th we'll be seeing you next season then. I think you might be right actually, thought you'd probably scrape the playoffs but maybe not.

MK Dons finished 3rd last season on 89 points. We best them 3-0, they're subsequently unbeaten including a 2-0 win at Watford and 4-0 at Morecambe. Barnsley just came down from the Championship, they're not a bad side at all. Away to FGR, Burton, Shrewsbury. OK probably 3 bottom 3rd sides but all away and a maximum 9 points, 1 goal conceded.

Our fixtures have been a relatively reasonable cross section of L1, against different styles too. Certainly will have been by game 10 when we add Accrington and Sheff Weds away into that. I would wager we'll be higher than 9th both at that point and in May.

As for winter, did you see our form under McKenna last January and February? We've got good depth and we're an incredibly fit and athletic looking side, largely at good ages. If anything it should benefit us.

To be clear, I wouldn't want to go on record and suggest Badger isn't an idiot, but I don't think they are talking about you in this case. Rather, I think they mean NCFC, or whatever their name is.

Be honest.

Do you like colours that clash?

And I mean clash so badly that when you see them together it should make you feel physically ill.
