Hmm, if they used a weighting to factor in which division those games were played in, then I can't help but think our placing would be less auspicious.

Not that it really matters

Blimey!

Just scraped past D*rby on monday!

Preston North End... the best Championship side... yet there the only one in the top 11 to have not played in the Premiership!

They were all played in the Championship, hence why Preston have played tonnes more than most :wink:

Ah, fair enough - didn't digest that properly!

 

[Kier]

In all fairness, both Leicester and Derby have spent three years in the Premiership, while we have had seven in the Championship and three in league one so it's not really a valid comparison.

It is based on games in the Championship only ( :-*) but both us and Derby have played the same number of games.

Not sure it's something to brag about, but no doubt i will..

 

[bradyo]

Am I right in saying that, seeming as we have only lost 39 in 10 years, that we have only lost an average of 3.9/4 games a year? That sounds pretty much very, very amazing.

 

[winnits]

Well no, because we were only in the Championship for seven of the ten years

 

[bradyo]

Well no, because we were only in the Championship for seven of the ten years

but still, feels a lot worse than that (until recently of course)

 

[It's Baggio]

No, we've lost 39 home games out of 150.

Add to that 65 (out of 150) away games.


Home: Pl 150, W 63, D 48, L 39, F 221, A 160, PTS 237.

Away: Pl 150, W 37, D 48, L 65, F 153, A 201, PTS 159.


Our average points per game over the decade is 1.32, which over a season works out at nearly 61 points, which is sort of half way.

 

[Flaggers]

More informative would be points per game.

Someone who's played 50% more games than someone else is likely to amass more points....

 

[Flaggers]

There we go - last column is points per game, sorted descending.

Looks like bouncing out of the Premier League sets you up nicely for Championship football.....
