Why is it we can never hold on to a lead ?

This happens so many times during a season , it can mean hell of a difference at the end of a season :old:

I agree with what you say and we haven't been able to hold onto a 1 goal lead since Malkys day.Hopefully Trollope will sort it out as the season progresses.

I suppose that's a question asked up and down the country by thousands of supporters. That's football, and most teams who draw or lose from a winning position do so because they were no better than the opposition. I am pretty sure that other teams will score against us first this season, but won't be able to hold on to their lead.

It's also been a question that's been asked on here for years.
I would imagine we are no different to lots of other teams in this respect, it just feels like it's only happening to out team though!

I guess that it could be a simple case of one team "needing to attack" and the other "needing to hold on" ;)

I think we have a decent 'come back' record from a goal behind too, but often fail to go on to win! :thumbup:

I think a lot of the players are petrified of screwing up, let's be honest we can be a very demanding group of fans who demand results and demand success. The tweets players get after a loss really illustrates that our fan culture needs to change and become more supportive.
