    1 in 6 people in the uk killed in motoring accidents are killed by drunk drivers, so statistically its safer to drive drunk, stupid i know but thems the figures, not the story

    But it is not lost at all, just that I think that when the Football League start awarding points for keeping the ball the longest, we will be right up there for promotion, ubtil then we will just have to try and get more point . I know its unfair and Dinosaurish and all aunties should be allowed to have balls etc. but thems the rules, only allowed points for scoring as many goals as the opponents or scoring more than them.

    A few years ago someone used statistics to prove that the rise in piracy is due to global warming....

    last half of last season keeef had 50% of his outfield sold/injured from new year onward, we just havent got the depth of squad to stand that, same as this season with the injuries, the sad truth is we aint got the money but i think hes doing a brill job with what hes got; i understand that he sometimes gets things a little wrong tactically but thats why hes here and not old trafford/barca/chelsea, we'll get there i think we're 2 players short of having a good side and i think that they're coming back from injury.( not 2 players short of having a good squad i think we need 5/6 for that)

    statistics can prove anything but they dont give you the full story/reasons behind it
