That's quite alarming. We don't face many shots, but when we do they go in. This could change with the returns of Forrester and Perch.
We are 7.6666 into the season. Carry on and we will concede 70 goals at the current rate. For comparison last season Oldham conceded 81 and finished 18th.
Until an improvement is seen on the pitch and in results then it will remain a concern.
gazza1988 wrote:If you're making a higher than average amount of tackles/interceptions it shows we are a busy defence and we have conceded the most goals shows we are leaky.
It could just be "gel" time. Or a difficult opening period. Or a mix and we will start a run of wins and/or clean sheets. "judge after 5 games" is a trope, and after 6 we aren't looking good Defensively. We are joint 6th with narrow on goals scored. They're 9th at the moment, only conceded 6 goals though.
It is still too early really but the early signs aren't good.
