After Eight (not the chocolates)

[Eric the Half a Bee]

This is our 96th season in the football league. Compared with this season, after 8 games we've managed:

Less wins on 18 occasions
More defeats on 17 occasions
Less goals scored on 0 occasions
More blanks in front of goal on 6 occasions
Less goals conceded on 16 occasions

In terms of starts to a season and end of season placings, we have once won promotion after a poor start like ours in our history. We've been relegated a third of the time after such a start.

We've been relegated every time we've scored less than 6 after our first 8 games.

Lay off our defense.

We are on Quality Street then! It's All Gold from here on in and plenty of Celebrations to follow.

It's been a Marathon day.

"Less goals scored on 0 occasions". That's a big worry. That, and our wafer-thin defence.
