What lies are being told?
Out of interest.
A number of supporters may just be unsure of when a free kick is actually counted as a free kick on official statistics,
e.g. last touch disposal counts as a free kick to the opposition, whilst playing on to advantage after a free is given doesn't count as a free.

Ah ok. I thought Groucho was indicating Centrals should have won because they had more frees, or that the stats were wildly wrong and Norwood had more frees or something. Thanks for clearing that up though.
Just for the record, when a player takes the advantage, free kick stats are still awarded to the specific players involved in the infringement so they'll still show on the stats.
Ah, that is a difference to how we at Champion Data did the stats ten years ago when I was doing them at Eagles matches. Play-on to advantage was not recorded as a free kick in those days.
Cheers
