Yea but when you're looking for negatives you then go to possession. If Town had more possession then you go on to other stats like corners... |  |

The stats say that the 5 teams above us haven't won a single game between them in 25 attempts. |  | | |

No. They had the better chances though. |  |

Did they? That set piece Gerken saved was the only real heart in stomach moment.
Wigan looked as likely as we were to score... Not very. It was a bit of luck we won but we were due some. |  |

Definitely not battered. They were crap, as were we. Abysmal ref ensured they applied some pressure on our goal but they didn't create many genuine chances. |  |

they had 2 shots on target, we had one.
They had 49% possession, we had 51%.
We scored 1, they scored nil.
I don't think the stats suggest they battered us. |  |

No I thought we were better than them. Especially in the first half. | | | |

No, lots of shots and not a lot on target. |  | | |

Thought Wigan were the worst side I have seen this year, and I have seen us for most of it. |  |

They caused more of a threat in and around the box.
Not just today, but we seem to panic a bit at both ends of the pitch. So a win should do some real good for that. | |

The stats don't look great ( Graph REALLY poor for home ) but the number at the top is the most important now.
They appear to have hit the woodwork as well! |  | | |

not battered at all.
They had nothing in the first half, in fact they were dreadful the worst team I have seen at FPR this season, including us.
First 15 of the second half they were better and put us under a bit of pressure.
The rest of the game was just scrappy from both teams. |  |

No. It was a poor quality game, but the only stat that counts is the goals scored column. We had 1 and they had 0. |  | | |

An unchallenged,fortunately woeful, free header too from not far out. They were poor though......but who cares! |  |

So many needless flicks and players just helping it in rather than getting hold it. Missed Skuse in their today. The lack of experience was so evident today, especially up top where the ball bounced off Roberts at will. Their centre halves were terrible too.
Great result though even if it was a terrible spectacle. Great noise from section six again. |  |

I honestly do not remember any of the midfield three actually winning a tackle,Skuse was missed and will be missed because we have nobody else capable of doing what Cole Skuse does-either the MM version of Skuse or the PL version of Skuse. |  | | |

I think the ball turned over more due to misplaced passes than tackles being won. Nolan was largely anonymous again. Any idea what kind of midfielder he is? He’s not a ball winner, a playmaker or a genuine box to box player!? | |

I thought Nolan had quite a good first half but disappeared almost completely in the second half.
Apart from laying the ball off, usually sideways, I do not know what he does because I doubt if I have seen him win a total of five tackles all season,very rarely runs with the ball and equally rarely plays a telling pass.
He himself says that we are yet to see the best of him but on the evidence so far he was not money well spent-in my opinion.
I agree that the game as a whole did not include many midfield tackles but winning them is quite a good way of getting the ball back. | | | |

Like you I thought Nolan was decent first half and anonymous second. Downes was quietly effective, Chalobah scares me but occasionally does some good things too. Midfield was okay today, we missed Skuse but we were able to boss possession at times nonetheless. | |

Isn't that the thing, though? It is typical that a struggling side clinging on for a 1-0 win will come under pressure towards the end. Wigan are in trouble because they cannot finish and take advantage of the free kicks players like Garner will win for them around the box.
We desperately needed the win. We now desperately need two more as soon as we can get them. |  |

Yes, they hit the crossbar and it went out for a throw. |  |

'Stats' are one of the poisons of the modern game.
As are fans who read anything into them.
1-0 win is all that matters. |  | | |

You’re forgetting the scramble in our goalmouth towards the end of the game and when they hit our crossbar with that thunderous shot? They started the second half much better than us and looked like the team most likely to score. We had 1 shot on target the whole game and that was the important stat.....Sears’ winning goal, but it wasn’t great overall. Thought the match was played by two poor sides. Wigan appeared content with a draw, but if we are being genuine with our views (and not positive for the sake it) we didn’t really test their keeper the whole match. | |
