You must be reading something different to me, because those stats suggest Barnsley dominated every area of the game; More possession, better shot accuracy, better conversion rate, double the number of corners, 50% less fouls, not to mention the two goals to our none. A couple of off target shots doesn't mean we created more, nor does it suggest we were anyway near competing with them on the day. The better team won.
Only just looked at this, what a load of bollocks. If ever there was an example of stats giving a misleading impression to someone this was it. Every single one of their players from 1 to 11 was better than his opposite number on our team - we were absolutely murdered.
Stockdale to come up for a corner a la Brad Friedel in the 90th minute. Odds on him as first goalscorer?
Have you got your fishing rod out here or are you just thick as pig ****? We had 2 more missed shots than them so we obviously outplayed them and were the better team.
What if your shots were just hit and hopes whereas Barnsley's were well worked chances with a real opportunity for a goal? Stats show fook all.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ How anyone can look at those stats and think any other than Barnsley dominated is beyond me, 2 -0 for ****s sake! If you add to that sitting and watching us getting a lesson in football and determination then it's a no-brainer.
Not nothing: In the first few minutes Boyd got through pretty much 2 on 1, only to misplace his pass to Meyler. If he'd have got it right it would have been as good as an open goal and we would have gone 1-up, knocked the wind out of them, and won. *Maybe.
I spent all Sunday thinking about that pass. It really was an open goal as you say. We ****ed it up as usual and they went up the other end and scored without even trying.
Yeah me too. It was our best chance of the match and I was really suprised they didnt show it on FLS. It couldve changed the whole game and been like Bratfud away that year when Elliott scored really early in front of 5000+ travelling fans. Totally settled us down and we never looked back. It was a ****e pass by Boyd. I wonder if he shouldve shot? Difficult to say without seeing the highlight.
I'd take a repeat of this [video=youtube;1I9lLmZUKI0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1I9lLmZUKI0[/video]
a load of people have asked me why The Football League show edited it to look like we created nothing in such a big game.. they werent taking the piss either, i had to tell them they didnt, that was just what happened.
