That's a very simplistic way of looking at it. Burton have also scored 8 goals against Bolton, Sheff Weds, Barnsley and Peterborough in recent weeks.
Many would actually argue 343 is more attacking than any other formation (352, 442, 4231, 433, etc). In a 343, you have the 3 attackers very central, 2 wing backs pushing high up the pitch and the CMs supporting

Would it be a local derby if we played Mickleover? Just because it's a town local to us doesn't automatically make it a derby. A derby implies a rivalry, typically due to playing each other on a regular basis.
We have only played Burton 5 times in competitive matches. 14.4 miles on foot between stadiums. Notts County's ground is only a tiny bit further away at 15.5 miles. We've played them 60 times in competitive matches, yet never in a million years would I consider that to be a local derby.
This is Burton's cup final, just like it has been for 15 other sides in the league this season.

Tommo wanted to go out on loan to get first team football because he wasn't getting any under Warne. During Bird's 8 game injury spell, Tommo only appeared on the pitch for 22 minutes. You can't get a more clear "not in manager's plans" message than that

Have you considered that rather it being many people missing the point that it could be the unthinkable and that it is you missing the point?

For some reason I have the sudden urge to have a beer battered fish

Total club wages were £40m in 17/18 (which includes players loaned out)
Out: Vydra, Weimann, Shackell, Baird, Bent, Jerome, Hanson, Ledley (released in Jan)
In: Waghorn, Marriott, Joefzoon, Holmes, Malone, Evans, Cole and Ambrose (both signed in Jan)
Plus loans - Mount, Wilson, Tomori, King
We'll never know, but I'd be willing to bet wages remained at around £40m.
For comparison, Leeds' wage bill in the same season was £46m, then £78m in their promotion season (includes bonuses)

Nah, I'll have a 7up instead and prove that it's a load of nonsense as we won't be 7up by half time.

Am impressive result considering we had an U16(?) CB partnered with a CM, and an U16 CM infront of them. Three U16s came off the bench too.

I do. But you're too late. I've already been officially given the title of "Number one fan"

@Owen87ITK How much did you pay for this topic?
I would have wrote it for you for half the price 😂.

31 goal contributions in 42 games (2872 minutes).
92 minutes per goal contribution.
At least 1 goal contribution in 19 games, with 18 of those coming in his 31 starts.
7 goal contributions in his 16 games against top half opponents (12 starts)

Damn, thats put a spanner in the works of proving his numbers are flawed.
How about if all of the goal contributions that happened in midweek matches are removed?
Must be some way we can make his excellent stats look flawed!

Administration doesn't 'reset' P&S, only failing P&S 'resets' the P&S figures.
