I was gonna ask someone to do this, so thanks! Interesting that it's us and Leicester with the worst record. At this stage of the season it shows how vital the first goal in a game is. With 5 games to go I think we need to go in front on 4 occasions to be sure of a play off spot.

I see what you are saying, but we concede most of our late goals when we're in winning positions, not drawing.

I'll have to dig the stats out, but about a two months ago I looked at the record of teams near us in the league, and all of them had come from behind to win at least once this season.

I think there is some truth in this. We could extend that to the Forest game as well. We seem to find it difficult to control a game after going in front from a drawing/losing position. I get the sense that the players do start to panic a little.
