According to the bbc website we had 70% of possession and reduced aldershot to just 1 shot in 90 minutes fantastic effort from the lads

Echo....echo....echo

Another strange stat (as picked up on by Sean on World), our first corner in the match was not until the 70th minute. Strange, given the proportion of possession we had throughout the game.

Clean sheet is good also, if only we could have kept a few more of these at home when in a winning position we could really be banging on the door for the play-offs right now.

Edit: this thread was duplicated on the message board, though one appears to have been removed.

More to the point, there were no corners at all in the first half. Aldershot had a corner within a couple of minutes of starting the second half.

The BBC web site talks bollocks (as usual!) I can think of two saves Roche made, one in the first half a 'lob' that he easily plucked out of the air and in the second half, a tame daisy-cutter that he bent down to pick up. They also had a shot that whisked past the post from a free-kick in the second half that Barry wouldn't have got to had it been on target, their best effort.
