It is the plain simple fact that we have to score more goals than they do!
I'd take a 7-6 victory any day over a boring 0-0 draw!

We always seem to give goals away easily.
Change that and I'll be happy to take what comes at the other end.

Yes, but over a 46-game season, a solid defence is a great platform from which to pick off winsOriginally Posted by Mr Soul '68
And forces oppositions to shape up against us differently, possibly to our advantage,.
I'd take 7-6 over 0-0 every time.
Most important thing for Saturday is that we have more possession than Burton which is something we lacked last season.
Surely winning is better than not conceding. 0-0 draw would be shite.
Yep 3 points instead of one every time for me
Anyone who has ambitions of finishing in the top 6 beats Burton away.
7-6 every time.
I don't care what the score is. All I want to see from this first match is a few glimpses of Tomlin and Zohore linking up well and looking dangerous
The original post isn't advocating a mindset in which we shut up shop and play for an away point. We all believe we have a potent frontline and stronger midfield than last season from which we expect goals on a regular basis.Yep 3 points instead of one every time for me
That said even with the the strength among defenders that we boast, we do have a tendency to give opposing teams a chance. So my point is a clean sheet in any game is more likely to end in a win than not because we're highly likely to score at the other end.
I'd say the most important thing is to not lose.
Win your home games, draw your away games, and you'll get promoted. Also a loss against Burton wouldn't be fantastic for morale purposes going forward.
It'd be meltdown on here at least.
I always avoid a hot curry the night before the first game of these season
The most important thing for Saturday is to not pick up any long term injuries. I'll take a point right now. Win and I'll be over the moon. 0-1 or 1-2 doesn't make any difference to me.
We simply have to win at Burton if we want any chance of promotion.
We've then got Wolves, Fulham, Preston, Sunderland and Birmingham as our next away games. I'd be very surprised if we got more than 2 wins out of that so a victory on Saturday is beneficial.
A loss would only see our heads drop for the opening few games and then we are already playing catch up.
Jesus wept, we've got to hit the ground running. Who cares if their linking up is a bit rusty, s'long as we score more goals than Burton! Taking a maximum of 6 points off a club like Burton is a must this season, if we are to end up a top six club come the season's end.
Coming back from 6-0 down with 75' on the clock.
As long as they win I don't care what the score is
I agree, a clean sheet with a new keeper was so important, but you seem to have changed your mind judging by that post game thread you started - Tandy will be spitting feathers as well because Burton had more possession than us!We always seem to give goals away easily.
Change that and I'll be happy to take what comes at the other end.
That thread has gone , wonder why ?
No it hasn't. It's a sticky at the top of the board. It's just merged with the 'post match thread'
Do keep up Jimmy - as they were saying on yer ride......?
