Good stats, would be interested to see what the current seven or eight look like now. But it does prove we are laging behind on this front.

So in nearly two seasons of football, we have only been involved in four matches where the losing team has come back to win. Three times it has behind the other team, only once ourselves. Personally I'd say that stat says it just doesn't happen that much and we are therefore not THAT far short...

So actually over the same period of time we have only twice when been ahead? Which sort of supports my theory that in modern football defences are better equipped to defend leads? There must be some stats on this somewhere?

The issue to me, especially away from home seems to be we switch into more attacking mode when we go behind, get the equaliser but then don't go on from there. Or if we do, like against Birmingham and Wolves we then can't defend properly having had that attacking phase.

Surely we also have to work into the equation how often we go behind? We rarely let a goal in before half time these days.

That is my theory that teams find it easy to defend against us but I am curious as to whether this is now more common across all of football. I just feel that teams winning from a goal or more behind doesn't seem to happen as much as it used to. But it could just be that we are shit at it of course.

We all know we are shit at this, I'm pretty sure we haven't done it for a year and half (the Doncaster game), but is it just us or is it down to modern day defending being so much better now. Does anyone have any stats on teams losing when ahead? or winning from behind?
