Spot on. It's what irritates me when they trot out stats like "Team X have won the last four against Team Y, so that should stand them in good stead" or somesuch bollocks. Especially egregious when Team Y are a recently promoted team that hasn't actually had the opportunity to face Team X in countless years or even decades. Gets right up my nose!
Those filler stats really wind me up. Martin Tyler must spout at least two dozen a game.
“Spurs have never beaten Everton during a full moon, with a prevailing westerly wind. Everton must take real heart from that.”
