Probably due to my advancing years I find that stuff that happens in matches
seem to happen so quickly that I don't always take in exactly what has
happened. There were several good interchanges between Snodgrass and
Connolly on Saturday and I thought the second goal came from one of them.
What a disservice I did Howson thinking that! What a great ball it was by
him to set Connolly free. 

>From the back of our goal Gradel's miss in the first minute looked glaring.
On the tele he seemed to be under much more pressure than it appeared to us
at the time. He should still have scored though.

For Howson's goal, looking from behind, the Burnley defence seemed to part
in front of him like the Red Sea in front of Moses (one for you there Doctor
Mike J) yet on the tele there looked to be a lot of defenders around and I
would have sworn he'd got into the area before he shot but no he must have
been twenty to twenty five yards out.

Scmeichel's last minute save wasn't quite as good as it seemed live either
as the bloke didn't really get hold of his shot right, but it was a good
save nevertheless.

The final thing I couldn't believe was the possession statistics. We did so
much more with our 39% than Burnley did with their 61%, a testament to the
effectiveness of our 4-5-1/4-3-3 formation?
