We've now failed to score in 20 of our 40 league matches this season.
Just 32 goals scored in that time at an average of 0.8 goals per game.
7 in our last 19 at an average of 0.37.
Sam Jones scored 6 (and missed a couple of pens) by November and he was dropped then sold in January.
Our current top scorer is Mitch Rose with 5.
Have we had a worse season in front of goal?

I have worked this out in my head so I could be wrong, but I make it that we have only scored one goal in open play in the last 720 minutes, 12 hours of football.

Since Vernam scored at Colchester ( on 38 minutes ) I've just checked back We have had 11 games since then so 11 x 90 = 990 Add 52 minutes on to that from that last goal at Colchester and it gives you 1042 minutes ( and that's not including stoppage time so in those 12 games, that could easily have amounted to another 50-60 minutes overall ) So in all that time the only goals we have scored in open play was Jackson's on his debut and Berrett's last gasp equaliser against Port Vale Was it Brian Clough who used to say it only takes a second to score a goal..... Well we've managed two in about 65000 or so Unbelievable Jeff!!

Even that’s being incredibly generous - Jackson’s was from a corner and Berrett’s was directly from a throw in! We’ve scored 15 at home all season. For a season ticket holder in the Lower Smiths or Pontoon, that’s £28 per goal. It’s disgusting really.

Sorry mate but all the maths came via my calculator... I do remember a bit of algebra from my school days - they said one day it might be of some use F to the power of n multiplied by S + W and there you have it..... not quite the big bang but more of an implosion

Very good. I wasted 5 years at Clee Grammar by playing football every night instead of homework, so once more I bow down to your mathematics .

We've scored 32 goals so far this season, 15 at home 17 away.
In all of the 2015-16 season, we scored 82 goals.
The date when we reached 15 home goals was 18th September.
The date when we reached 17 away goals was 22nd November.
The date when we reached 32 goals was 13th October. The 32nd goal of the season was when we went 2-0 up at home to Halifax Town, eventually we won 7-0. Seven goals in one game, that's almost half of our current home total of 15.

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

At least the product hasn't been devalued. And the price is going up next season
