When you get one, it takes a lot of pressure off and, if we could get an early goal I think we could score quite a few.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I should have hit that one first time,&#8221; he lamented looking back to his chances in the Birmingham game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve got nine goals in the Championship, but as a striker you start to feel it when you go two games without scoring.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have drawn the last two games 0-0 and you think &#8216;If only I&#8217;d got one, we would have won the game&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I honestly don&#8217;t know how we didn&#8217;t beat Birmingham.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You&#8217;d probably be happy with a point beforehand when you go to a place like St Andrew&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But the way the game went, we are disappointed not to have come away with all three.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The most important thing is that we are creating chances,&#8221; Scotland added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think we are just missing that little bit of luck at the moment.
