    Had to comment somewhere so you guys get it!!! Always had a soft spot for Burton since I started my working life there and lived around there for ten years. Just looking at the BBC live stats and see Bradford have 73% possession, but BOT have scored 3 from 12 shots with 7 on target. Bradford got 7 with none on target. So do the stats actually mean anything?

    Yes, it means it's best to have 100% possession.
