Leveller Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Given all the discussion of last year’s rollercoaster league form, I thought it might be interesting to track the parallels - or otherwise - this time round in a continuing thread. Currently, after a weak start, we have improved and having now played 6 games, have 11 points and are in 6th place. Last year after 6 games we had 9 points and were 9th (source 11v11.com). So far so good but it’s early days. Lets see how the comparative positioning changes over the course of the season. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking of spooky comparisons, Watford currently have the identical record that Leicester City had at this stage of the season when they won the premier league - identical in terms of games played, wins, points, goals scored, goals conceded, etc....get yer money on the Hornets to win the premier league in 2019.....as @Coombsy would say, “it’s a done deal” - but, then again, he or she is ALWAYS wrong....keep yer money safe and spend it on real ale I say....

Be really interesting come the next international break which is in November after we play Preston. That will be 17 matches in, last season we were 4th with 31 points after 17 games. Would be fantastic to match that … tbh I'd be amazed if we did, but who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Another comparison: multiple central defensive partnerships - although I think the current one is gonna be the standard from now on...like Flint / Baker became. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, it does take a day to choose the right graph type and then colour schemes. Wait until someone decides this needs a PowerPoint presentation. That's when the real work starts.

Oh yes after the Sheff Weds game, had missed that. So we will then have played 12, last season we were 3rd with 21pts after 12 games. To match last season we need to take 10 pts from next 6 games, would be good if we could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leveller Posted September 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 So after seven games we have 14 points and sit in third place. Last season we had 10 points and were twelfth, mainly because we had drawn four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
