You mean "here's another detached stat", or here's a "faulty correlation stat" or even, here's some "cherry picking". valid analysis must considering the broader context in which those matches take place.

While these "stats" are statistical data points , analysing them in isolation without considering the broader context is not a valid statistical analysis. Not sure, again, what this says as a table but it's crucial to consider all relevant variables and factors that could influence the outcome being studied.

I'm sorry, but ignoring important contextual information can lead to biased or misleading conclusions (which you never do, you just leave it there for people like me to chew over and get annoyed). Great individual data points, but analysis that ignores important context would not be considered valid statistical analysis, i see no extremes... 4/10 must try harder

dear god not another bulut buttkisser. Admit it, if this favoured bulutball in any sense of the word you'd have been wanking off to this post.

Blah blah, Great individual data points, blah blah

And that's all they can ever be. Even any attempt at context can be misleading or interpreted alternatively depending on your viewpoint. That's football stats for you.

Well maybe that's the cue for you to jettison them into ccmb history

Spurs are a team that can claim that their lack of home draws was the product of an attacking approach which saw them possibly losing games they could comfortably have drawn. On the other hand, I wouldn’t say that was true of Warnock’s 18/19 side.Another very strange factor about this season is that our attitude was far more attacking after we had equalised to make it 1-1 than it ever was at 0-0. The Ipswich match is the most obvious example of this, but we looked the more likely winners against Southampton once Diedhiou scored and there was also the Preston and Sheffield Wednesday away games (admittedly we we were playing against ten men in the former).

The league table is essentially just a stat. No context.

[pipster]

Where are the stats on watching enjoyable attacking football ?

Surprised you included Trollope or Hudson - as they had very few games in charge.

I think I would rather lose a game 2 - 0 rather than trying to protect a 1 nil defeat. Zero points is zero points regardless of by how many goals

[Eric the Half a Bee]

blah blah

For someone who hates anyone being critical of the club, you don't half spend some hours being critical of everything else. There isn't a TV programme you haven't gone out of your way to slate, no band you've ridiculed etc.

[Eric the Half a Bee]

The league table is essentially just a stat. No context.

The only context is playing each other home and away over the course of the season. It's often said that the table is misleading early in the season; maybe it is until the last games have been played.

Even then it just says win, lose, draw, goals scored, goals conceded.

For me there's more interest in looking in more detail. How teams come back from behind or lose from being in front. How often teams fail to score or how often they keep clean sheets. How often they sneak narrow wins or how often they batter teams. When teams are likely to score winning goals.

I can understand that lots aren't interested in stuff like that, but it doesn't give them the right to be rude about it.

[Taunton Blue Genie]

This is possibly an impossible question to answer (as defining what a forward is) - but has there ever been a previous season where our forwards have scored a smaller percentage of the overall goals?

Maybe the poster is a Bulut fan, maybe he is not. I don't know or really care, but I fail to see how you can take this viewpoint from his post.

When I spotted the the OP and the thread title I thought, "here we go, another Bulut bashing stat" but I was wrong.
It was just a bunch of stats not worth posting (IMHO).

[OurManFlint II]

The issue is the misleading title, the stats are what they are but Trollope was the first name i saw and he never completed a season! A better subject line would not have boiled my piss.

Thanks MacAdder, this is one of many multi's i have blocked, glad to see its still valid lol

[Eric the Half a Bee]

But it was a season of extremes. 20 wins, 22 defeats is unheard of. To win so many by such a close margin then lose so many so convincingly is almost unheard of.

From November onwards it was virtually one result or another. No grey areas. I doubt we'll see another season of results like it in our lifetimes.

I can understand that lots aren't interested in stuff like that, but it doesn't give them the right to be rude about it.

It also doesn't reveal the context of the enjoyment people might have gained from watching. It's 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for a loss. There's a lot more to football than that. Or at least there should be.
