Re: That chart of 'Mistakes leading to shots' you posted yesterday.

It listed Birmingham as Zero. I think that's bollocks.

I've just rewatched the highlghts of our match against them, and:
1) Our equalier came directly from a FK awarded against them (so why not an Error?), and they subsequently failed to clear their six-yard box (another Error).
2) Our winner stemmed from Birm not defending a high, bouncing ball in the middle of their half. Two passes later we have scored.

And in the Blues' match @ WBA they conceded a penalty, which was converted. So how can that not be classed as a 'Mistake leading to a shot'?

Confirmed, I think that stat (& table) is bollocks.
