So where will they come from? Peason   8 Church    8 Coulson  10 Hearn 15 Eagle  8 Disley 7 Spencer 10 Artus  6 Others 5 TOTAL 79 Plus I would expect our defence to be tighter, so perhaps a few more 1-0 wins will net the points this season. Any views?

Attractive footy is nice but is secondary, we need to grind out results to get out of this league. A shed load of goals, as seen last season, isn't the answer.  As pointed out by (I think) Quakerz a while back when Cooper took over Darlo. He built from the back, not pretty and seemed to be going nowhere particular until the team clicked as a unit.

Well let's say Connels goals, for a single striker, was a shedload. But yes, those infuriating goals we threw away probably did us good in the long run, alerting S&H to the immediate problems of the team. I pity the Town players having to face Scott in particular if we slacken and give up a late goal.

I agree, it does not take much to get Scotty wound up and a late goal will result in water bottles being thrown about at least.

If he stays fit I think he could be good for 15. Pearson's goal count will rely on good service - anyone know if Disley/Artus are set piece experts? Let's not forget that Garner had a decent record with the Stags too. JESUS AT THE CENTRE

Guest User	This is maybe the fourth time I've pointed this out in the last week, but here goes: offence wins matches - defence wins leagues.
