Every report I saw showed Livi as having only 1 shot on target. (I recognise the stats may come from one source only). However every report, including BBC highlights, also mentioned Rocky's excellent tip over the bar. Given Livi scored a (non og) goal they obviously had at least 2 shots on target. I know some folks on here are au fait with the stats process so I have a couple, ok 3, questions. How can stats be so obviously wrong & what level of scrutiny is provided by those using them? Is it now a historical fact that Livi only had 1 shot on target yesterday?

I think the shot rocky saved was hitting the bar.

Whether it was 1 or 2 shots at goal Livi had on target, one thing's for sure, we can't get out of the habit of conceding a high % of goals per chances created by the opposition. In truth, this has been going on for years so can't just be put down to being unlucky. We seem to have a bad habit of switching off at times during games and the Livi goal was a good example of that. Both the Dundee United SC ties were also classic examples of the opposition having few chances, but somehow managing to score goals with a high % of them.
On the positive side, it is good that we are not allowing the opposition many chances.
