Poor midweek away form (1 Viewer)

bigfatronssba · Mar 19, 2025

I have the day off, with nothing else to do I decided to work out just how bad our midweek away form has been over the last few years (I am that dull).

Its quite stark compared to weekend away games. For the purposes of this, I've considered Friday night games to be weekend

I took every league result since the start of the 21-22 season (first year back at the CBS)

Weekend
	P	W	L	D	PPG
Home	53	27	12	14	1.79
Away	61	22	22	17	1.36

Midweek
	P	W	L	D	PPG
Home	29	12	10	7	1.48
Away	20	3	10	7	0.80

Bank Holidays
	P	W	L	D	PPG
Home	6	2	2	2	1.33
Away	7	3	3	1	1.43

There must be something in the way that the club prepares for mid week games that affects how we play. Even the midweek home games PPG isn't brilliant

Not asking you to do it unless you really want, but would be most interested in a split by kickoff time if possible.

They should all be 7:45 or 8pm. Any 3pm ones I will have included in the Bank Holiday table

If you have the time can you also split it by what kit was worn for each game please

Be interesting to compare to other clubs like Leeds, Sheffield Wednesday and Oxford.

@junglej13 we spoke about this on the way to Derby.

I'll split by the pre match meal as well if you want?

Don't put D after L ever again please, my brain can't compute.

Really interesting analysis by the way.

What were the 3 midweek away games out of interest? Blackburn this season. What were the others? Assuming you're not counting the play-off semi?

No I just took regular league games.

Other than Blackburn it was Bristol City and Blackpool, both in 21-22.

It was more lumping Fridays in with weekend. I wondered if they’d match midweek more.

No way 'big fat Ron', you promised that last time. Not falling for it again.

Friday night games are worse, although its a really small sample size

It would be the same correlation for all clubs. Im sure this isnt an issue. Be interesting what it would be like for the outpost clubs.

Why though?

If it is the same for all clubs, then this would be potentially an easy way to get an advantage over them. Figure out the reason and it can be solved

And i took pelters for saying now the Hull games moved to a Monday night, i think we will lose it now

Seems statistically i have a point

I agree with you there.

Statistically you're well overdue to be right about something
