You're not far wrong Sparkie !!...although it's not just our mid-field that seem to spend their time chasing opponents back towards their own goal, for the rest of the defence often find themselves in this catch-up situation...the third of Lincoln's goals would be a good example of this!..
Is it due to the absence of a real defensive Leader who can organise the back line into maintaining some discipline..particularly when facing freekicks and Corners...there does often seem to be some disarray on these occasions with everyone making suggestions as to what to do..and who to mark...these, as we all know have resulted in so many goals against during this campaign.

As the zenith of my Soccer achievement was to cut up the oranges for the Second Eleven's half-time refreshments...It is for sure that I am no Soccer Tactician!...
However , it is not too difficult to spot the same errors being made over and over again.
Perhaps a 'Leader' in the centre of a 'settled' defence..and Kenny back on song...just might result in a stem of the goals which are regularly filling the back of the Red's net!

THIS SATURDAY ?????.......ON STANLEY!....ON!!!!
