    The goalscoring debate - stats on when we score.

    Or at least a blog :P It was probably too long a post for a footy forum though!

    Sam McCallum injury

    Stewart Robson, Lee Hurst? Not 100% sure they were ACLs but as they were both effectively career ending, I'd guess they were. I've a feeling injuries are reported on in greater detail these days. Would have just been a 'knee injury' 20+ years ago.

    The goalscoring debate - stats on when we score.

    There's been some debate this week around goal difference, shooting stats, whether the formation should change or is it the players within it. I'd like to share some stats on when we score and how it influences the season. It seems to me that when you score, especially against teams in the...

    Sounds like something CWR's Martin Winch could have helped with.

    Our Goal Difference

    Here's the last 3 L1 seasons sorted by 'Wins by a 1 goal margin' and marked with league position. I think it's a slightly different angle than pure goal difference. 18 of our 23 wins in L1 since promotion have been by a 1 goal margin (78%) Last season, 2018/2019, there's a clear trend with...

    Yep. My own team play at 2pm though so I'd have only caught the first 30 mins anyway which softens the blow a bit.

    Glass half full....

    and any matches where we might wear a completely unnecessary 3rd kit.

    3rd Kit

    I've heard from a reliable source it's the new stadium plans and a 3rd kit.

    3rd Kit

    Such a weird thing to get irked about. So what if it's unnecessary? You don't have to own it to be allowed to watch games or to be a fan of the club. The team themselves might only wear it once or twice but if it is two-tone themed and as well made as the current shirts it will be more than just...

    Plan B?

    A by-product of the late winners and equalisers. Rotherham was almost 80 minutes losing and we've been behind at Wimbledon and Blackpool before coming back to win and also behind at Portsmouth and Donny before last gasp equalisers. We've only scored one goal in the opening 15 minutes, home or...

    An evening with Mark Robins

    Should be a good evening for all: Kyle Mcfadzean in the stocks - 3 water sponges for a quid. Dom Hyam manning the 'catch a rat'. Marosi will perform some mime artistry under his stage name Morose. There will also be Sniffer dogs - 5 sniffs for a quid or, if you want the dog to sniff you, 3...

    Can we skip player ratings this week? It was depressing enough to watch live.

    Hopefully Robins will tear him a new one for that.

    To be fair it was Baka for Kastaneer and then Hiwula sacrificed for Rose after the red.

    I'm Kelly's biggest fan but he's shit for 3 games when he's been out for a while. Worrying!
