Just to satisfy my curiosity and to try and take my mind away from the annoyance of tonight's result, I have just trolled through results to try and confirm this fact.

I believe that the last time we won a game after going a goal down was 11 April 2009 against Brighton when we eventually ran out 3-2 winners.

Since then we have gone a goal down on 17 occasions, going on to lose 7 and draw 10.

Make of this what you will, but unless my facts are incorrect 17 months is quite a long time to have this sort of thing hanging around?

Never mind winning, we lost tonight after coming back. That's more annoying and concerning

But not as concerning as not coming back at all.

It was a poor poor defensive show today. Was going to happen sooner or later, but its how we react to it that matters.

Sorry about the cliche!

The longer it goes on the worse it will get.

That's it. It's all over. We're doomed. Bring back Diamandis.

One fucking game lads. We've been steadily improving. Now let's go fucking destroy Dagenham.

I thought it was Leyton Orient at home last season when we won 3-2 about December time? I may be wrong though

Noah scored the winner the last time we came back from a goal down, coming off the bench on the poop deck of the ark to snatch a late winner on a damp surface

In some of those games we went more than one goal down as well.

To concede the 1st goal only 17 times since April '09 seems to be a pretty encouraging stat i think.

We left ourselves a mountain to climb that day, Ararat I think it was.

In fairness if you go a goal down you are much more likely to lose.  I don't see how this can be considered a hoodoo, especially seeing as we came back from 2 goals.  The problem is conceding the bloody goals in the first place.
