Can you find 6 easy points from this season?

That's basically what we're short (at the moment) - where are those 6 points for you?
2 against Fleetwood, another 2 at home to Port Vale and then I'd say the Charlton away 2-2.
3 draws that should have been wins.
 
If Jordon Rhodes hadn’t sustained the two injuries this year then we would have a few points more.

Charlton at home where he missed an absolute sitter. This was due to the pain he was in due to broken rib.
 
6 points from the opening 15 spoke volumes for me.
Had we have had a goalscorer then it should have been a good 10/11.
Downhill from there!
 
I think most teams can do this though. We were 2-0 up at home to Derby and lost, dropped points against you lot twice, smashed Pompey at Fratton and lost… It is what it is over 46 games…

With us it's about losing games that really were winnable. Not losing by luck, ref's decisions or whatever, but losing at 2pm with team selection, then losing again with set up and team talk.

Allowing for the luck side I reckon a different manager would have gained another 10/12 points more. Not enough for top 2, but 3/4/5, deffo.
 
Every team can list points they could/should have had. Charlton home and away are 4pts we absolutely threw away. Not scoring a single goal against Port Vale. Cambridge away, 1 up and then behind but failing to punish them when down to 10. In honesty I have more frustration with the performances against Wigan, Burton and Stevenage when we barely laid a glove on them.

Fleetwood (a)2 Burton (a)1 Cheltenham (a)1 Port Vale (h&a)2 Charlton (h&a)4 Wycombe (a)1 Wigan (a )1 Exeter (a)2 Cambridge (a)1 = 15 points dropped

There you go neyo, I suppose most teams can say it for 2 or 3 games, NOT A QUARTER OF THE SEASON.

You just named two of the top teams. Did you lose away while playing tappy tappy defensive football vs Burton, Cambridge, Port Vale, Chelmsford, Orient?

Chelmsford? Haha.

Yeh we lost away at Cheltenham and Bristol Rovers for example and would of expected to have won…
 
We irritatingly start every season poorly because we haven’t got the team in place… we throw away the first few weeks waiting on getting loans etc in…. By then points have gone down the pan….
Yep its aways ben the Blackpool way that, trying to save on wages in the summer
