It's obvious that we're conceding too many away goals and it's hurting us, but I just looked through the league stats and it's actually worse than I thought. We've conceded back to back goals in less than a minute 4 times in 8 away games: - Blaze - 2 in 24 seconds
- Giants - 2 in 14 seconds (dead rubber though)
- Lightning - 2 in 32 seconds, followed by another 40 seconds later
Other quick goals against include: - Devils - 3 in 4:08 (including equaliser & GWG)
- Lightning - 4 in 2:44 (including GWG)
- Clan - 3 in 4:58 (including GWG)
- Flyers 3 in 5:50
In total, we've conceded 3 or more unanswered goals in 5 out of 8 away league games (6 out of 10 if you include cup) this year and perhaps unsurprisingly, lost every one. It's not much better by period: - 4 goals against in the 1st
- 17 goals against in the 2nd
- 17 goals against in the 3rd
That's a very poor return on the last 2 periods. Perhaps that explains how we've actually scored first in 6 of our 8 away games in the league, but only converted that into 4 points. Also helps explain why we've not come for behind in any away game to get a point, because we're just getting blown away in the last 2 periods. What the root of the problem is? I'm not sure. I'd hazard there's a question mark over fitness if based on when the goals come, but I think there's a composure problem after conceding which leads to these flurries. We've conceded 3 or more in under 6 minutes in half of our away games. That's starting to look more like a pattern than bad luck right now.

You would have to assume it’s some kind of mental concentration problem. Last four away games we’ve conceded 5,6,6 and 7 goals, and we’ve lost six of our last nine games,wow that really is appalling. That is Edinburgh type stats.

Any outsider looking in would say it's a concentration/confidence issue. The team is clearly hurt so badly by conceding goals, so that it often concedes again quickly. Wonder if there's any pattern to the personnel conceding the subsequent goals? One thing I've always thought about Sheffield (this season aside) they've always been most dangerous after conceding a goal.

Net minding problem ?, keeper losing focus,for a minute or two can easily cost a goal, whereas the outfield players have got some one else helping them

There has been several cases where we have been sloppy clearing the crease and tying up sticks in the slot Problem is if a goalie makes a mistake, then you know about it, if a player makes a mistake that leads to a goal, then it still looks bad on a goalie, even if he makes a great first save
