Everyone knows the heartache of goal difference after last season which is why we are all revelling in the gulf between us and the chasers at the moment, a gap they are unlikely to even get close to closing.
The gap between ourselves and the Toon however is certainly within reach and I for one would be just a little disappointed if we were to miss out on the title by a similar margin this season.
I recent games we've somewhat taken our foot of the pedal after scoring, almost as if 1 goal is enough, last night for instance when in fact Birmingham were there for the taking and we could surely have added to that tally before half time if we had really gone for it. 1-0 wins would be great to ensure reaching the promised land but it would be a shame if we missed out on that chance to actually win the title just because we give it a proper go.
I know we have scored more but just feel we may be just holding back when we could really put other teams to the sword.
