I would like to see Ashford Conte and Giles start.
In what has been a remarkable season statistically, there are 3 possible outcomes with us on 19 wins, 5 draws and 21 defeats.
1) We lose and become only the second side in league history to win 19 and lose 22 games in a season.
2) We draw and become only the 8th side in league history to win 19 and lose 21 games in a season.
3) We win and become the first side in league history to win 20 and lose 21 games in a season.
Has there been any other occurrences other than ourselves this season, of a team finishing in the top half and losing more games than a team who has been relegated in the same season. We currently have lost 3 more than Huddersfield. I can't imagine that's happened too many times.
You'll set him off again!
In divisions of 20 or more teams, it has happened 23 times in league history.
The joint largest is 3, in the Third Division in 1982/83. Reading were relegated with 17 defeats (only 5 at home) while Sheffield United finished 11th with 20 defeats (and 19 wins).
It has only happened in the second tier on 5 occasions, with 4 of those being a difference of one less defeat for a relegated side and one of 2. If neither or both us and Huddersfield lose, it would be a new record for the second tier.
Eric, you're like a little ray of sunlight through the storm clouds, honest you are!!!!
No one cares bar civil servants and accountants.
It's where we finish and how many we win
In reality the finishing position doesn't matter if it's anywhere from 7th to 21st. The outcome is the same - more Championship football next season.
Factually, correct, but I'm sure if you're being honest and not just pendatic you prefer finishing 7th in the season than 21st, for obvious reasons.
But don't we get more money for each position higher we finish?
I think stats are interesting, as you must surely guess.No one cares bar civil servants and accountants.
It's where we finish and how many we win
Does it not bother you that we could, potentially, be the first side in the history of the second tier to finish in the top half, yet lose 3 more games than a side that gets relegated?
Not really, but fair enough I get the point
I need to see better football next season, it's been hard work at times.
How the hell did you work that out?
Microsoft Excel and a spreadsheet of all league tables. 2 minute job.
I'm going up BnQ
Thanks.
Must have taken you ages to input all that data.
It was a lockdown project. Copy and paste from a decent source.
Just proves that draws aren't worthy.
Three points for a win instead of two is the reason for that.
Get your tickets for our final fixture of the campaign! ��️

I'm going fancy dress as Aaron ramsey. I'm going to make a real effort so that people know who i have gone as, down to the smallest detail. I'll be wearing a pair of trousers, socks, pants, T-shirt, jacket and a pair of daps.
