    Horrific Stats

    We've conceded 21 goals after 90 minutes this season.

    We've also lost the most points from winning positions this season of anybody - 25 points.

    If we'd not lost those points we'd be 2nd.

    Wasn't aware of the first stat. Shocking and it's a long term pattern.

    Blimey, that's absolutely horrific.

    That's on the players, the lazy bastards.

    The first few times maybe, but this has happened time and time again, across the full season (Liverpool was the second game and the first time it happened)… and when it happens that often and for that long… then isn’t it the managers job to get the team ready to control a game and see it out?

    Aye, that's a fair point, Ian.

    Playing devils advocate: heart wrenching as that stat is, it shows were not far off being good again!?
    For me, at the end of games, we offer zero attacking (counter) threat, allowing the opposition to press. Lots of teams in our position break out and score at the end of the match to kill it off - we never do.
