I agree the injuries have hampered us but so has our playing style. Going out onto the park 3 points must always be the target not playing for a draw and hoping to nick a goal,especially at home. It's not like having 3 center halves is stopping us leaking goals anyway is it?

Games clearly settle down to a pattern then it's easier to change and adapt from there, usually the opening is frenetic, what we done want to do is change system and start losing the first goal more often and early at that we need to be on front foot sure and have high energy from start but the three at back system was working until we lost Graham, Doc and Sibbald

We weren't leaking goals as you say as we had one of the best defensive records in the league

At the point of the injuries we had played 7 won 3 draw 3 lost 1 and conceded just 7 goals with 3 cleansheets, that's excellent at this level having just come up

4 games since won 1 drawn 1 lost 2 conceded 6

The Hibs game at home being the only game we've won when we've conceded in a game, show's the importance of being solid
