There is no statistical significance in those figures. You run the risk of making a point which has legs but backing it up with facts which, because of the small sample size, mean nothing whatsoever.
I disagree but I knew that was coming :-)

I think that's reasonable. Mostly he's okay and certainly tidy enough but I'm concerned he is rated highly because of what he replaced. The same might also be said of Macari. Has improved the side...
I'd give him an assist. For them!
I would make Nemane walk home
What VAR has been successful in showing up is just how poor and thick many of our refs are (including Atwell, although I haven't seen the decisions properly to comment). Hopefully it will lead to a...
Some quality strikes but Crowley's against Bratfut just makes me smile. Brilliant by Macca and the little pull back to give space to get some height on it is just delicious
I'd up Baldwin to a 4, Cameron to a 6, Bostock to a 5 and put a special request in to give the ref a negative rating and ask to see his bank details.
edit - not that we deserved anything out of...
2030 - Barcelona, semi final Champions League (disputed pen given by an American ref) Just makes ya sick
If you discount a man being climbed all over then yes, I agree. This ref is so bad
looked like he got the ball to me. Clean tackle good enough for this bloke to give a pen though. Absolute fan boy cheating ****
We've got 'em on the rack :-)
the fact that he was Brindley's man has escaped you? Baldwin at fault for first and always an error in him but discredit where it's due, and that wasn't one of them
Correct! And Robertson okay in patches is also right. Sometimes good, sometimes meh, and sometimes couldn't pass water. Will be good though.
When Stockport score next, I've got money on the ref...
And therein lies the dilemma. I guess we all want to win every match, as do I, but I'd be worried if we went up without being ready. FGR are looking at the consequences of being unprepared.

Suspect lot of truth in that
Baldwin is both our best and worst defender. I really think with the right sort alongside (with apologies to the other recent thread - a Graeme Lee/sort), he could be even better for us and/by...
"It was Mark Binny miss"
Exactly this. We all should know deep down that we have pretty damned good owners, but what was concerning about the release is how they appeared to have watched different games. Of course we have...
This.
So, if we were aiming for promotion, either directly or through the play offs and we were sixth with a fair smattering of luck, why didn't we address properly the areas where we had been...
They may have done but I could understand the changes. I thought Austin, despite his goal (which was well taken) was our weak link in the first half, and Macari went missing for their second.
...
Agree with much of that but would caveat it by adding those who don't live within ten miles of the ground and have families, who need to make a time based decision on whether to spend 7 hours on...

This!
