Aizoon Posted December 26, 2013 Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 One for the stattos: We all know that Big John scored 350 in 645 competitive games for City, and a little maths makes that a 54.3% strike rate. Does anyone know in what proportion of his games he scored? It's obviously less than that, because I know he scored a 5 and a 4, and any number of hat-tricks and doubles. I'd guess it would be about 40%; certainly it would be unusual for him to go two home games without scoring. Does anybody here know, though?

A total of 351 goals So that's 40.1% of games. I guessed 40%, which isn't bad Any idea what his home ratio was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FForbes Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 John played 326 games at home. He scored in 154 of those games (a total of 216 goals). He therefore scored in 47.2% of home games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
