I very much agree with him, stats are for geeks in my opinion or people who can’t make an opinion without some outside help to guide them to a view.
What’s happening to peoples ability to watch a game and see through their own eyes and feel through their own emotions if what they have witnessed was good or bad, what gets me is football is about opinions on individuals or teams and we’ve witnessed it on here to try and win a argument some use stats as the be all and end all of a difference of opinion, yet can’t see that’s not there opinion it’s a company who are being paid mainly through advertising to count individual items on a game and on individual players, and there are loads of these organisations been driven by companies who want a forum on the internet to advertise through, and these sites must be popular because if they weren’t getting hit on they wouldn’t get the advertising revenues to carry on.
