    I think most teams in this league struggle if you strip away their 2-3 best players, so I'm not sure we're alone in that issue.

    I really aren’t arsed about stats or looking them up
    But is there possession stats about where the possession actually is? As you say if it’s passing about along the back line and keeper it’s not as good as searching for an opening along the oppo 18 yard line ?

    Always more posts ( relevant and irrelevant) when we lose.

    Understandable that a post mortem after a loss generates more posts than a win, but this thread’s mainly a one man four hour early hours rant.

    on Sky's football programmes they seem to go into that level of detail but I dont know whether they produce the stats themselves or get them from third parties and whether they are available to the public

    I don't concern myself with stats either Chazz so I honestly wouldn't know where to find that information.I'd hazard a guess that a fair amount of our possession is in our own half and very little is in the opponents penalty are though.

    I was going to say this, but I was also going to say we are heavily reliant on individual skill. We don’t do many team goals.

    many opponents run with pace and pass forward much more than we do

    I think if you were being entirely honest you'd see it as more than 'one man'.

    I don’t do mind-numbingly boring repetition.

    you dont seem to criticise the others who kept saying the same thing over and over again despite all sensible people realising they were wrong
    they even seemed to realise it themselves when, after saying that the best option was to pass to Seri even though he was surrounded by opponents, they then seemed to accept that passing to him was a cock up
    I see you realised it wasnt wise to challenge the statement regarding your lack of honesty

    Peter accounts for a third of all the posts in the last ten pages, on several pages over half the posts are his, it’s neither normal, nor healthy (and most of the replies are just people pointing that out to him).

    There’s several pages with more nonsense about a Grimsby pre-season, than yesterday’s game.

    so that means, if you can be believed, that two thirds of all posts were 2/3 people challenging my view
    conceding an unnecessary goal in pre-season prepared the team to concede an unnecessary goal in yesterday's match, as well as other matches
