Didn’t see that, anyone got a clip?

Surprised by the positive feedback. Normally happy to see refs let the game flow but thought he let too much go and many decisions seemed random. Players on both sides were very frustrated with him.

There’s some shite on this forum but arrogance about being a big club ain’t it.

What were your AF symptoms like?

It’s so frustrating so often EMC concedes fouls just for standing his ground and being strong yet CB’s can just employ wrestling moves and get away with it.

That’d actually really annoying

Only 12 points behind us. Going to be a tough season

They had 2 shots on target and 11 shots total.

:o

Sounds a great evening!

Yes and no. You’ve answered your own question in that it averages out. It’s not perfect because it can’t account for every specific, you mention position of defenders, but it’s based on historical data it’s representative.

See this is the root cause of your skepticism, you don’t understand how they are generated but briefly no, they are not arbitrary. xG is based on the statistical likelihood of scoring based on the position on the pitch the shot was taken. A shot within a few yards of goal has a high xG, 0.7...

What’s really impressive is that he was identified and brought in as it wasn’t a position where there was a consensus we needed a player.

Having a Quick Look at the xG for their last few games they’ve overperformed it while oppo has been wasteful, so rings true that they’ve been a bit lucky. For much of the season we’ve had a high xG and low xGA so are more deserving of the position we are in.

Listening to CWR on the way in last night Bailey and Guerney said DK has been interviewed in the morning to give some updates about the stadium. However, they filled the slot whining about ticket prices so never covered any stadium news, that I caught at least. Was there anything interesting...

Yes that was my thought. Assume it wouldn’t be practical to tap into the sound system due to delay.

Was a great atmosphere but the music was far too quiet.

Agreed. Torp was about the only player to try to press last night.

It was a foul on Tats for the third. I thought he had just been out muscled but Sky brought it up after the game and showed the replay.
