If we're talking seconds here you're looking at a distance of, what, 150m in the times quoted? As no pitch, anywhere in the world is that long how were the times arrived at? I'm incredulous that some of the names are faster with a ball than without. sorry, but until the stats are explained I'm going to say 'rubbish'!
