You have to flick about a bit from Bianca's linky but that makes for shocking reading

We would have 15 points and be third bottom with a -6 GD having scored only 4 goals in 19 games.
WOW!

 

[Kenilworth]

WTF is Under/Over? Is that an Americanism?

If you look at the attendance league we are well over 6k a match better off than the nearest, which is Bratfud
Brizzle's average gate is more than 7k below ours

 

[UnitedBlade]

Must be top of the second half only table then !

 

[WorkingtonBlade]

WTF is Under/Over? Is that an Americanism?

No idea, but whatever it is, we're a disgraceful 18th.

Clough out!

 

[boo radley]

good job it's a game of two halfs then!

 

[shorehamview]

good job it's a game of two halfs then!

Or two halves even.

 

[Lane Ender]

Email Clough that Stat

 

[Maidenhead]

Possibly the most irrelevant table ever divised

 

[alcoblade]

It tells us a lot though.

What we know so far;

Currently we are not good enough for automatic promotion

The current team can gaffer whoever they come up against

It's not about the quality of the players, breaking the bank or signing lots of new ones


It's about us being brace and dictating play from the start, not waiting for it to be dictated to us.

UTB

 

[WhiteHawk]

Top of the league by a long way on attendance though!

 

[blade.i.am]

And in the last 15 mins table we are 10 points clear

Liverpool last night were a replica of us.

They knew they had to win. Pussy footed about, went behind and tried for last 10mins.

Is Broomhill back in town? Yhats two times today. 'Twice'. 'Your' right though

 

[Living In a Fantasy World]

Just shows how we waste the first half, we show no desire to attack and always seem happy to come in level at half time against any side,
this is mainly down to having a "don't concede" attitude which comes from Clough, we don't attack first half (at least at home) which starts boring fans, we then ironically concede a goal and we see the team booed off at half time. all could have been avoided if we stepped it up in the first half and gave the fans something to cheer for. I personally wouldn't mind seeing Murphy beat a defender in the first half.
We do pay to see United to play 90 minutes of football not just the last 45 ..... (a lot of games at home we've only played the final 10 minutes )

 

[FTPE]

Relegated? Awesome. Negative first half tactics?

"That's" and "You're" Boo
Just sayin' or did I miss the ironing as indicated by your winky?

I'm with you on many points....however, the reasons are easy to understand when we have little quality up front and are physically bullied.
When Clough can improve the front line then I expect better performances from the word go.
At the moment his plan not to concede is probably the only way to compete.

 

[Harry's Game]

Can we have a list of Olympic Gold 100m medalists if the race finished after 50m? Be about as relevant.

 

[blade too long]

To be fair its as relevant as clicking on the attendance table , we top that but that doesnt count either

 

[Bladesway]

Yes it does, it counts to who has the biggest support in league one, but what else should it stand for?

It couldn't have anything to do with having a bigger budget than any other club in our league could it? No,surely not!......it can't mean that can it

the attendance chart is as relevant as the half time score chart , in relation to the only chart that counts , the actual table for playing finished games

 

[Bergen Blade]

We are not delighted with that one either.

Of course it is interesting to have a look at how we're doing at half time compared to other teams, huge room for improvement and I'm sure the management will agree.

It's relevant in that it tells us where and why we are failing. If I were Clough, I'd be focussing on this as my top priority.

Most things, including the players, are a means to an end. The only end is promotion out of the third division.

Suppose we should do a number of supporters still in the ground on 90 minutes then.

 

[blade too long]

theres lots of reasons half time scores arent relevant , teams come and park the proverbial bus at the lane , arsenal have the same problem and win most of their games second half ,just as an example, , but that apart the ratio of goals in ALL games is far higher in the second half across football
