sexbelowsound Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 No didn't mean it that way. Meant it more as in the previous post about goals. I think its a pretty shocking stat which was a new one to me. I don't find any of these stats shocking anymore tbh. I've seen us long enough to know how poor we are however stats can, and are, dressed up to suit whatever purpose they are there to serve. I don't pay much, if any attention to them in the grand scheme of things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I agree they've become pretty meaningless because its just so obvious how awful we are. That one stood out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you already know we've conceded too many and scored too few, why would that stat stand out? It was expected. That was the point made. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 It stood out to me. What's the big deal? I knew our home record was poor but seeing that over a 63 game period stood out to me. Shall I check with you if that's OK in future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackpotForeigner Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 We definitely need to be scoring more goals. Unfortunately the manager is so crap he doesn't realise this. (Am I doing it right?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you feel the need to mock the way some people post? Seems strange to mock others, especially when you're stance is rarely supported with facts and evidence.

We all agree on the facts. What we don't agree on is the reason behind those facts. Here is an example of a fact: We have only scored 11 goals this season. Here is an example of an opinion dressed up as a fact: The manager's tactics are so bad that we've only scored 11 goals this season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how's that different to someone using the financial constraints, injuries or any other reason to say its not Lambert's fault? Surely you should have an issue with how both ways are presented.

TRO Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 As sad as it is.....This manager's reign is not going to end up with a happy ending, the signs are clear to me and some eminent people in the game that there is no leadership at The Training ground or on the pitch on match day, particularly if Ron Vlaar is not playing. Paul's time is up in my opinion.....it just simply hasn't worked.....and that is sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
