    How many times have we lost a goal in the last minute?

    How many times have we lost a goal in the last minute this year? It seems like more than just a couple. For years it appears that added time is the worst part of the game for us and the best opportunity for the opposition - no matter how many goals they need to overcome a loss.

    Not sure on the last minute goals lost, but the bigger worry is when we're winning a game (or doing decent), we go really deep and invite the opposition on to us. That makes it likely the other mob score; any minute from the 65th onwards it seems !!

    It does seem that we concede more than most in the last ten minutes. Have a look here...

    Look at the amount of games we throw away in the second half. 75% of our goals conceded are in the second half.

    Nice to know that we can score in the last minute (or second) too!

    the last 10 minutes conceeding goals is nothing new we've done it for years. We are really really poor at seeing a game out.

    It's always a great feeling if it gets you a result. We would have settled for 4 points from 6 in two hard away games, and yet we moved DOWN the table. It just shows how hard it is going to be between now, and the end of the season

    Fantastic celebrations on Saturday. We may have dropped down the league but we've increased the gap between ourselves and the bottom clubs. There's a wee bit of space beginning to open up between ourselves and Accies and Inverness. Still tight though.

    Given four of our next five league games are against Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen and Hearts, a gap, however small it is, is more than welcome. Sadly it's also not likely to last but if we're not in real trouble after that run, our spell to the split offers a chance to steady the ship again.
