There was an unusual trait during Dave Jones' time with us that we didn't like playing in November. There was no reason for it, it was simply one of those oddities. In his last 3 seasons we won 2 and lost 9 in November. Very bizarre.

Since his days, there have only been 3 seasons where we've lost more than we've won in November. In Mackay's first season, we won 5 and drew 1 in the eleventh month.

A friend on Facebook mentioned about us not liking November, so I thought I'd have a look. Curious stat alert.

November record under Jones: W 6 D 8 L 15
November record post Jones: W 20 D 6 L 11

This isn't an attempt at Jones bashing at all. I just find things like this curious. There's absolutely no logic or reason for it.

It might be worth considering that we haven't drawn a game in November since a late Burnley brace saw them overhaul a 2 goal deficit in a 2-2 draw back in 2015. It's been 4 years since we last drew in November.

All strange stuff.
