Own goals don't count as "on target"

I think that's CIM's point. 4 on target, 4 goals and an own goal.

That won't happen often.

When you are ‘on the up’, things start to go right.
People have been quick to compare our heavy defeats this season to dreadful seasons gone by.
Today was an example where we just scored goals when we had shots - reminiscent of some games from our best seasons.
I just love supporting this club.

Before today I had noticed in the last four league games before today the shots on target have been 1, 1, 3, 2 and goals scored 1, 1, 2, 2

So after today last 5 games: 11 shots on target, 11 goals (2 have been own goals and one penalty)

That is not going to continue

That sounds almost impossible over 5 games.

Shots on target don’t include ones that are blocked by defenders.
It is a very misleading stat.
Also we hit either the post or bar just before half time, and yes I know that doesn’t count as on target either but it was a gnats cock away from being 3-1.

Yep, and the OG was actually a decent move and a good bit of link-up between Moly and Sterry. Good overlap and JS put in exactly the type of ball that causes teams problems. It wouldn’t register as a shot on goal but it was worthy of a goal nevertheless. Plus we had Ironside and Biggo queueing up to score in the middle anyway.

Looking at the video both loked well offside

Pib, the ball in by Sterry doesn’t even register on the assist stats.
