CLEAR evidence that Sami reads NSC (I think he posts as [MENTION=5729]sir albion[/MENTION])

Very interesting stuff indeed. As much as I hate to admit it, the philosophy of 'play not to lose' seems to reap more reward than 'play to win'.

I've updated the stats for life under Sami

We have now scored once in ten matches this season (we scored once ten times in the WHOLE of our time under OG) and have only won one of those matches.

We have managed just 6 clean sheets in 23 matches (and two of those were against Cheltenham and Burton in the Cup). Under Gus we managed a clean sheet in 36% of our matches, under OG it was 42%, but under Sami it's 26% (and only 16% of league games).
