    Not seen game today, but definitely seems to be more a case of what you do with it than how much you have

    Absolutely right. Goals win games, and they gave us the first and gave Victor the chance for victory at the end.

    To be fair, the chances we created, we should have scored at least one more.

    Neither did I watch it but as you say its what you do with it when you have it that counts. 3 clean sheets out of 4 as well. So still tight at the back and yet beginning to hit the net more.

    It aint how much of the ball you have, it's what you do with it that counts :)

    Possession is like an erection - of absolutely no use unless you do something with it.

    I disagree. There are not 'very poor' teams in this league. The Championship has probably the highest standard in 2nd tier club football in the world.

    17 shots SEVENTEEN. With less than 1/3 of the ball. Some stat that is :)

    Red Rain is on his way to tell us it’s not how we should be playing...

    I did not see the game so there will be no Minority Report again, but those statistics have left me scratching my head. There is obviously much about the game that I need to understand, and I shall be back at school for the Forest game.
