BFTG - Boro (A)

[Snowball]

Best Reading player yesterday was the Goalpost........

There is a trend developing-3 times v WBA as well.

2 against QPR. 2. Stoke, 2, WBA, (dunno where you got 3 from) 2 yesterday.
We certaily owe the woodwork a dept of gratitude since JG came in.

Hitting the post doesn't even count as a shot on target

Most come because defences force attackers to shoot from further out

[AthleticoSpizz]

How was the journey home?

3 and a bit hours back down to Chelt so can’t complain.

that’s pretty good going tbf, sometimes takes nearly that long to get to ‘nam from here.

They're often a lot closer to being goals than many shots on target though.

WBA hit the bar as well which counts as woodwork.

Nobody said they did count as shots on tatget (pedant)-it was fairly lightweight discussion over the fact that opposition have appeared to hit our woodwork quite a lot-nothing more than that,, just an observation.

No. Chelt’nam” you daft oxf*rd.

Not so daft Zip-see UKE's post that includes shots of the Vietnam War-thus the reply to Spizz who was clearly confused having earlier mentioned Cheltenham-doh.

I was going to say that you jumped in quicker than Chris Gunter does when making a tackle and then desisted because Chris Gunter so rarely makes a tackle.

You’re wasted on here my darling.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Well quite...often ‘wasted’

[Victor Meldrew]

....and I wasn’t ‘confused’

I'm now confused as I thought by your you were confused.
Having spent some time this afternoon with a lady who has dementia I thought I was doing a good deed and helping another sufferer.

[AthleticoSpizz]

[Zip]

You could reasonably argue that shots going just wide, or shots hitting the post
are because (almost always) because the opposition is forced to shoot from a
non-deal distance and/or position.

Give a shooting chance inside 6 yards, presumably a high percentage DON'T hit the post,
but, instead, go in or force a save.

Give same, say inside 18 yards, presumably the on-target percentage goes up, and,
in turn the number of goals goes up.

Shots don't mean much, shots ON TARGET mean more.

I doubt if Miazga and Moore keep a count of the times oppo's hit the woodwork
