It's still the best home performance for a while apart from Portsmouth, which was a bit of a fluke game post Tisdale's departure. Although until this week's games are played we won't know if it was Rovers playing well or Shrewsbury just having an off day. Regardless you can sense Barton has a plan and the players are battling for him, hopefully, they are good enough to stay up. I agree with much of that but to describe the Pompey home win as a “bit of a fluke” is very unfair. Pompey were awful, nearly as bad as Shrewsbury but in that match we didn’t nearly throw it away at the end and, considering the opposition, it was a very good win. Perhaps the most relevant part to come after yesterday is that we have seen 4 fairly consistent performances which could and should have led to more points. Pompey win, a performance at Gillingham which should have resulted in us being up and winning before we messed up, an unlucky defeat against Wigan with a decent enough performance and yesterdays convincing performance which we still almost threw away. Overcome our defensive weakness in the middle and we should be ok. UTG! As I posted it was a "bit of a fluke game, as clearly the players were responding to Tisdale's departure, it was then back to normal service in our next game at Gillingham. Tomorrow night's game is the real test for JB, avoid defeat or better at Burton and things will really be starting to look better. |

Topper, ok that might make more sense in those terms.
UTG!

Top stats bomb analyst tweeted some interesting stuff about how Bartons Gas set up and play much higher up the pitch which should see us take a more dominant approach to matches. I know stats are not everyone's cup of tea but if you are like me then worth a look y'all He adds more content in each reply so read on  Enjoy! |

I like the xG one as you can see the 0-90+ minute timeline and xG which on Saturday saw Shrewbury have 0xG for 75 mins which is so very positive for us as we look to dominate under Barton. |
