A continuation of our overall league history post

Yes, I'd agree with that. If you're interested, as things currently stand in the league tables, we're 5 places above our average, Swansea are 23 places above their average.

Thanks Eric! Love these tidbits.

Broadening it out rivalry-wise, I’d probably categorise the wurzels as closer to us than the jacks on that spectrum of achievement. Although being a two club town disrupts that a little bit when I think of them compared to us.

Beat me to it.

Eric what's the score statistics wise between City and those carrot crunching, scrumpy sodden, straw chewing halfwits in Bristol?

Their average position is 42nd, ours is 40th, the Jacks is 48th (revised from last week's post due to an inputting error).

At this present moment in time, the cyder drynkers are 19 places higher than their overall average.

We've been above them in the league 55 times, they've been above us 38 times. We've been in the same division 41 times.

They've been 2 divisions above us 4 times, we've been 2 divisions above them 11 times.

From 1971, they finished above us 26 times in 32 seasons up until that wonderous moment when we beat them in the playoffs. In 17 years since then, we've finished above them 16 times. The only time they finished above us during this period was in 2007/08 where they managed to blow an automatic promotion and playoff attempt within a few weeks.

Here's one for you (and anyone else):

Swansea are currently 23.5 places higher than their football league average. Which 5 sides have even higher positions than their league averages?
