    Fouls committed by Team/Opposition

    Here are the yellow card stats to supplement the first table too. Least number of yellows in the league and 2nd highest fouls per card ratio at 9.56 (behind Blackpool). No surprise to see Joey Barton's Fleetwood at the bottom with double the amount of our yellows, 8 red cards and a yellow card...

    Fouls committed by Team/Opposition

    After some discussion on the Goal margins/Goalscoring thread regarding the apparent lack of 'taking a yellow for the team', fouls in general and also with Robins saying he wants to add more experience/increase the squad age, I thought I'd pull up some of the fouls stats for the season. Having...

    But the point is a good one. If Sterling reports back favourably about his time here and Chelsea see progression in him, then with AV's connections there we stand a good chance of getting another one of their 60 loanees next season!

    Sterling

    'Average at the end' is a little different to 'For the last couple of months he has been a passenger though. Been very poor generally'!

    Bakayoko/Chaplin

    The striker situation is puzzling for me. I fear Robins has bought Chaplin to develop into a 10 given how deep he's played him most of the season. Of the ones we have I feel Biamou would be best suited to 4-2-3-1 but he's unproven in L1 and coming back from a bad injury. Bakayoko doesn't win...

    Sterling

    I think he was so good in that middle part of the season that people think he's playing worse than he really is. He's looked a bit leggy in recent weeks but defensively he's still been solid, he just hasn't been contributing as much going forward. Wins a lot of free kicks too and very rarely...

    Shipley completely lost his man for their goal. Challenged for the initial cross and then ball watched while his man wandered off into space and scored.

    Forwards Next Season

    A team of Gary Breens would increase the average squad age by 20 though :)

    Forwards Next Season

    Surely it will increase the average squad age by 1 not 20? :P

    Imagine the contrasting emotions if we'd have sneaked 6th while they dropped to 3rd. We'd be euphoric about making the play offs and they'd be absolutely gutted. One of the things that makes football so great I guess!

    Today’s games

    What is crazy in the league this year is that Luton, on 91 points with 1 game to go and having been top for months on a 28 game unbeaten run have a very real chance of missing out on automatic promotion. 1 Luton P45 GD46 Pts91 2 Barnsley P45 GD42 Pts91 3 Portsmouth P44 GD33 Pts87 Luton vs...

    Don't think that's the queen. Pretty sure its that bloke from the Mad Hatters that was helping Dale Evans takeover bid.

    Early in the Mansfield away game is the only one I remember. And we should be thanking him for it too - turning point of the season last year!
