Silvio Dante Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 OK, acknowledging that the same teams aren’t always successful year on year. But also acknowledging that some teams (eg Derby) will always be “there or thereabouts” barring a disaster, there is one hugely noticeable stat in our games prior to the break. We’ve played six. There were four teams finished above us last year who didn’t go up (I.e 4 of the top seven). In six games, the only one of those we haven’t played is WBA. We’ve averaged 1.33 points per game from those teams, against 0.89 per game last year, while having a team who are embedding with a lot of injuries. I guess what I’m saying is it was a hugely tough start. But to be where we are is really positive - particularly when you look at our games in the round.

Davefevs Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 We are also 3 points better off versus the same 6 fixtures as last season (18/19 results on right side of pic). 18/19 - w2 d2 l2 19/20 - w3 d2 l1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Balls Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 Also I would suggest that we played Leeds at the worst time of the season (i.e. right at the beginning)and the team and style of play has changed considerably even since that game, let alone last season.

Both Preston and Brentford away look tough. Get results in those games and we might really be up for a special season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a full team to select from Lee has a very good team at his disposal, think we are in for an interesting season hopefully one with less ups and downs very optimistic this could at last (fingers crossed) be our year.

TheCulturalBomb Posted September 2, 2019 Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 This is a pretty good stat to be fair, and might just show the promise we have, and we haven't played full gear yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
