Robbored Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Just for info... If you work out this table as a % of games played versus Win, Lose, Draw and you sort by games lost, we have only lost fewer games than the top 4 premier league clubs and therefore 5th out of 102 clubs listed... Team Played Won Draw Loss Pts Pts Av. % Won % Draw % Lost Chelsea 382 232 92 58 788 2.062 61% 24% 15% Arsenal 379 226 95 58 773 2.039 60% 25% 15% Manchester United 381 255 67 59 832 2.183 67% 18% 15% Liverpool 380 204 94 82 706 1.857 54% 25% 22% Bristol City 462 199 134 129 731 1.582 43% 29% 28% Reading 447 207 109 131 730 1.633 46% 24% 29% Wolverhampton Wanderers 448 181 134 133 677 1.511 40% 30% 30% Cardiff City 460 182 139 139 685 1.489 40% 30% 30% Rochdale 461 176 142 143 670 1.453 38% 31% 31% Sheffield United 451 184 127 140 679 1.505 41% 28% 31% If you sort by % of games won, we are 7th out of the 102 clubs listed... Team Played Won Draw Loss Pts Pts Av. % Won % Draw % Lost Manchester United 381 255 67 59 832 2.183 67% 18% 15% Chelsea 382 232 92 58 788 2.062 61% 24% 15% Arsenal 379 226 95 58 773 2.039 60% 25% 15% Liverpool 380 204 94 82 706 1.857 54% 25% 22% Reading 447 207 109 131 730 1.633 46% 24% 29% Leeds United 423 185 99 139 654 1.546 44% 23% 33% Bristol City 462 199 134 129 731 1.582 43% 29% 28% "Lies, damn lies and statistics" Stats can be dressed up to mean pretty much anything you want and I still fail to see the relevence of them today. So what does it matter if City have a win stat of 43% over a set number of games? City have won 7 games out of 24 this season - without using a calculator thats aprrox 31%. Its whats happening this season that matters to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riaz Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Decade finishes: 1999/2000 - 9th 2000/2001 - 9th 2001/2002 - 7th 2002/2003 - 3rd 2003/2004 - 3rd 2004/2005 - 7th 2005/2006 - 9th 2006/2007 - 2nd 2007/2008 - 4th 2008/2009 - 10th Could have it a lot worse, like them gas ####s Thats quite an impressive record - especially when you consider we've gone up a division during that time. Maybe thats why city fans have got so used to being in the top ten and now come to expect it? and maybe thats why so many are moaning at a mid-table position because they now expect more?
