quote: Remember when we were talking about Neville's analysis? Here is a good example of it.
He's grown on me massively. I really thoroughly enjoy having him in the booth now. He's level headed, fair, and his insight is some of the most intelligent I've heard from a commentator.

Compare the top four teams in the table to us in total shots and conversion rates and one could infer that if we were only able to increase our rate of conversion with our shots taken it really wouldn't be that far fetched for us to qualify for the champions league this year by finishing in the top four in the league table.
Here's to a better second half of the season and the hope we get someone in January to help us out with this issue
