Funny but with no replays they can’t even play for a draw to get the revenue. Not hard to in understand.

No, just thought it was a interesting comment at the time. Also if you watch his interview he did on signing for us think he talked about almost joining us in L2, so it would line up that Robins has been an admirer for a while.

Robins did seem very fond of BTA, no? "Best centre forward performance for the club in a long time" or whatever he said

More stats for you all Our opponents converted that 23.0 xGA into 25.3 PSxG - suggesting weve faced slightly better than average finishing, nothing crazy though. From that PSxG we've conceded 34, 33 discounting an own goal. That would suggest ~7.7 of the goals we've conceded are down to the...

:ROFLMAO: We won 4-0 mate

Presumably that will have to be in the first 15 minutes before his hamstrings disintegrate and his knees explode from the sheer physical onslaught of playing in the championship?

You're letting the perfect be the enemy of the good. "There's only 1 stat that matters and that's the score" - for determining the result yes, for analysing performance, no. Anyone who knows football will realise it's massively affected by variance. You can easily be the better team and end up...

Was talking about the first half. The point is, if you look at the shots we took critically you would not expect us to score 4 goals. Sakamoto's - decent chance but gets scored less often than you'd think, and arguably should have been saved. Eccles 1st - shot from 20 yards, rarely goes in. EMC...

lol Yesterday was a very good example of why it's not nonsense. First half, we had 4 shots on target and scored 4 goals, that doesn't happen very often. A combination of good finishing and poor keeping caused that. If you replay that first half over and over most of the time we would not score...

Well having had some truly shocking keeper performances explains a lot of it. And anecdotally we’ve spent a lot of time behind in games where the oppo are likely to sit back more. But 5th vs 18th is still an insane difference to me.

Would anyone like to guess where we rank in the expected goals against (xGA) table? For reference, we have currently conceded 34 which puts us 18th in the actual goals against table (where lower = more conceded). Answer:

Lati in the TOTW! Whoscored HQ clearly still on the sauce!

Ideal window right now OUT Tavares - Permanent, see if we can get a nominal fee Allen - Permanent, bottom of the pecking order, would be a good pickup for a L1 side, could generate a small fee Kitching - loan, IF Lampard isn't gonna use him then try and loan him out somewhere to get minutes...

That's from the Cov Tel article on the deal. To me that suggests the up front figure would've been in the £3.5-4m region.

kept the defender busy 🤣 this is hilarious

If EMC is injured (really hope not) I would be tempted to try Bassette on the left with Simms through the middle.

eh?!

Harsh to drop a striker with 2 goals in 13 games give me strength. I like the guy but the love in he’s getting is a tad weird.

Shocked me yesterday to see that we're only 2 points behind them. I thought they were having a decent season and us a poor one.

Start Simms. Torp could come in to freshen up the midfield, maybe for Rudoni. I'd start Kitching over Lati (but you already know that). We've had a few false dawns already this season, a win in this one and at Cardiff and we might be on to something.
