The Championship Thread 2023/2024

Can't wait for some more mindless extrapolating of form tables and nonsensical overanalysis of numbers after the game

Where's this idea that we're crap at attacking come from? Just checked margin of victory for the top 4...

 

 

OK so 2nd highest wins by 1 goal, but 8 wins by 2+ goals, compared to Ipswich on 5, Leeds on 5, Southampton on 4. 

 

 

Last 2 games have padded our stats since enzo has changed up our play. 7 goals in 2 games.

Millwall still sits in the first column though, so doesn't really pad what the statistics are trying to show.

We're the only team in the League with a positive goal difference across all match segments and boast the league high 16-4 record in the final 15 mins of matches, which is frankly absurd across 21 matches. 

I mean, heck we've only conceded 4 goals in the final 30 mins of matches!

Its a margin of victory table, , we going to probably be more favourable given our superior goal difference and better goals conceded, I suppose its easy to get to a certian outcome when you picky about what stats to show, similar to useing the whole season as a form guide.

I didn't post it, just pointing out that you've made a point about goals scored recently affecting it and looking favourable when the last one sits in the first column.

Hopefully he can do a goals scored per game table, that ignores goals conceded.  Although now we playing enzo ball 2.0 we scoring more freely last three games.

Brilliant!

Boy is an absolute super star

Do we want a draw at the weekend Leeds v Ipswich or Leeds win to create a gap ?

[Fox 4 Life]

Assuming we win, a draw, however the gap to 3rd is still the most important!

Ipswich win and if possible a proper humiliation of Leeds. 1-5 or 1-4 would be perfect.

Weird that you’re trying to suggest I’ve got some sort of agenda to ‘cook’ the stats. 
 

And, it’s a margin of victory table, so…it only shows margin of victory. That’s all it can show? Not sure what you’re driving at. 
 

There’s been lots of comments floating around about us being crap at attacking/the top 4 being better than us. 
 

One measure is looking at margin of victory. Which we’re actually the best at. There’s not some other grand narrative at play. It’s quite a simple statistic, presented without much value judgement

Can't really lose - if ipswich win it means we can go 16 points ahead of leeds, if leeds win at worst we're still 10 points ahead of them and still ahead of ipswich, if they draw, then we could edge 2 points further ahead of both of them.  All that really matters is us beating Rotherham.

[Koke]

When Leeds beat us they thought they'd catch us. We've increased the gap since.

A draw would be the best result. It stops both of them winning and a start of gathering momentum, we go further ahead of both (should we win).

Ipswich victory please.

 

Build as big a gap as possible to third.

 

Worry about coming first afterwards. 

[Leicester_Loyal]

Southampton and Leeds are going to need to win like 19 games out of 24, and even then they might not catch us.

but both 1 margin wins...so how's that padding. the amount of goals scored are affected by the amount conceded.

You have to say being 13 points clear of the greatest Football League side of all time is impressive, just pray we can keep it up.

[Jobyfox]

To be honest I couldn’t care less who wins between Leeds and Ipswich. I just solely want us to win knowing that we’re going to extend the lead over one of them if we do. It’s nice to have that additional certainty
