Talking of goal-times, I've crunched some stats (league games only), effectively splitting all goals into four quarters.
At home, played 11, scored 11. Amazingly, despite the perceived lack of goals, we have only scored once in all the first half's played, (versus Dulwich)! No goals scored between the 23rd minute and the 45th. None!
There lies everything we need to know. In the same timeframe we have conceded 19 goals (home and away).
We have conceded 52 in the league - 26 in the first half - 26 in the second half! It all re-iterates we appear to be fading after 20 minutes or so, consistently throughout the season.
Virtually half the goals scored at home come late on, hardly surprising in the circumstances, in pursuit of a winner or chasing a deficit.
Usually, I would personally dismiss this as complete tosh as an exercise. It may however in this instance re-iterate how we tend to perform as a whole. The annual wonky lab experiment of a Xmas Harrow game will probably go some way to blowing these stats out the water - we could hopefully start with the most important of all - a win. Get to work chaps.
