    I have looked back at the results and without goals from Keillor-Dunn they would be 17 points worse off. Putting them fourth/fifth from bottom.

    And he's likely to be sold into the summer and replaced with a player from the french regional leagues who Mladen's identified as our primary target.

    I get what you are saying.
    But,
    Have you done a survey of every teams top scorer. And where teams would sit now. That picture may look well different to what you present. ?

    I think you’ll find a very similar pattern for 90% of teams.

    That has happened many times down the years.
    We have lost some cracking players doing that.

    That's not how it works though. If it was, if you removed the goals from every teams top scorer, we'd have done the double over Wycombe and beaten Birmingham at Oakwell just for starters.

    Even more worryingly, if we'd played every game without a goalkeeper we'd have been battered. I'm well and truly sobered.

    Our last 6 home games has us with 5 points only one point above Mansfield in 24th who got 75% of their points against us.

    That’s quite sobering
