I never subscribed to the theory and I still don't. We're right in the mire and sinking fast. I stated on the forum, pre-season after the Barrow game, that we'd be relying on others to keep us up and that's exactly where we are.

I think much of that was rhetoric. They may have the ambitions, but the reality dictates otherwise.

We don't have anyone to regularly score goals. Mullin has never been a creator of goals, but a finisher who relies on others around him. This season (esp. after Gornall left), he's had no service and nobody to play off him, and therefore hasn't scored, or created very many. The only other goal threat is Ryan from midfield and although he's done his best, he's out on his own. How often do our defenders score? Apart from Ryan, how many goals have come from midfield after 34 league games?
When you leak goals like we do and can't score at the other end, it's no wonder we're in the mess we are now.
