I have to agree with Exile when he says that statistics are concoctions produced mainly by the pundits. Assists/percentage possession etc etc are meaningless rubbish. But I do take note of the stat mentioned above. It should be saying something to our management team. Why is it that almost one quarter of the goals conceded come in the last 10 minutes of a game. Is it fitness? Is it concentration? Surely it cannot be simply coincidence.

And the failure to score a single goal in those final 10 minutes illustrates how pointless it is to bring on a substitute during that time.
