To simplify the stats:
BHAFC = Shit
Everyone else = Better than us.
Hope that helps

I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this.

Only 6 teams have conceded fewer goals than us.
It's not so much we're conceding loads from wide, but we're just rock solid down the middle, so teams are forced to play wide.
Take last night, I can remember them getting through once in the first half (that ended up as a corner that wasn't a bloody corner), but that was it. We're really hard to break down through the middle.

strong and stable with me, or...
Did anyone mention the stat where Gross has the most assists (majority crosses) of any player outside the top 6 this season?

All well and good, but we concede far too many goals from set pieces compared to other teams, as evidenced by the stats across the season.

Truth is there's very little a defence can do against a wickedly inward-curling cross or free kick into the box. It's too fast for defenders to read accurately while trying to mark their man, and the keeper is in two minds whether to come for it or not. If it's delivered right, the impetus is usually with the incoming forwards. Murray is a master at this.

If I recall correctly I believe the stats show that from open play we are one of the best teams in the division defending crosses. However from set pieces we're quite comfortably one of if not the worst.
