Currently on pace for letting in 85 goals this season.
A new record, even for Martin? |  |

martin is performing exactly as he always has,let as many in as you score = mid table.
Luckily for him this season he has a better squad this season to dig his tactics out of the mess they cause but still under performing |  | | |

Under performing but SR still have the staggering arrogance to roll out the messiah Martin to give a tactical masterclass at SMS to his adoring public. | |

Looking at last season’s final Championship table makes sobering reading.
The top 2 both conceded less than 40.
Luton went up in the play-offs and also conceded less than 40.
Out of the other 3 teams in the play-offs, 2 conceded over 50, but one of them (Boro) scored 84….
The highest-placed team to concede over 60 was…….. Swansea in 10th.
It really is simple; if we don’t defend better, we won’t even get in the play-offs. |  |

We've brought in some truly awful defenders like Holgate to weaken an already weak defence. Result: no team in the Championship has conceded more goals than we have. [Post edited 26 Oct 2023 11:00]

13 games played and 21 points gained at a ratio of 1.62 per game, x 1.62 by 46 games and you get 74.5, that is good enough to get into the play offs in most of the seasons since we were last in this division.
Doesnt matter how many you score or how many you let in, it is all about how many points your get |  |

The trend has been for us to make hay against the poorer sides (Rotherham apart), but struggle against the top sides (Leeds apart).
Teams who struggle to defend rarely do well in the play-offs; obviously these would be against some of the better sides, who we are struggling to beat.
Currently pinning my hopes on Ipswich losing their manager to a struggling Prem team ASAP..... | |

How many teams have gone up conceding Martin's career average of sixty something goals? | |

The less you concede the easier it is to get more points tho
And we concede at will particularly after we score and it seems in quick succession which would suggest poor coaching
That coupled with a limp strike force doesn’t bode well | | | |
