21 points from the last 15 games

21 points from 15 games

that's ether won 6 drawn 3 lost 7
or won 5 drawn 6 lost 5

which is mid table form

don't know what the stats say but excluding the two Bank of England or to be more accurate Bank of Lancashire (ringers) in this league

so many matches in this league are single goal affairs

over the last month we have had seismic movement at the bottom of this league (the no hopers have suddenly got hope) could BST or anyone tell us

how many points Oldham Gillingham and Plymouth have got

and how many the droppers Fleetwood Bristol rovers MK dons afc wimbledon and Rochdale  have got  (probably not a lot)

would give us a good comparison

Coleman.

21 points in 15 games form over a whole season would have put you in:
11th place in L1 in 2016/17
13th place in 2015/16
8th place in 2014/15
9th place in 2013/14
13th place in 2012/13
10th place in 2011/12
10th place in 2010/11

Which supports what I’ve been saying for a few weeks. Since a rocky first 6 weeks, we’ve been in decent upper-mid table form.

The league is all the place this year. We're 4 points above relegation, but we're also 14th. I'm not worried.

Think it was DRNaith who said in the summer, "people are happy finishing mid table, but only if we win every game to get there".

[SydneyRover]

Apologies if I miss any of the subliminal messages contained in any of the posts but the information contained in the current league table show that after a very shaky start and we are now in a much better position, yes maybe only a few points above the drop zone but with a buffer of 6 teams below us.
https://www.theguardian.com/football/leagueonefootball/table

If you look at the teams around us over the past 5 games there are not that many with any better averages or the wherewithal to suddenly improve. A win over Northampton tomorrow for me (despite their position) will show we are very capable of finishing mid table for which I for one would take as I have said staying up is the name of the game and any better is a bonus. Northampton have beaten Walsall and drawn with Blackburn, no mean feat from near bottom of the table.

As billy has suggested I think we're in the middle of a good bit of form right now.

I'll give you a big clue here dickos, the stats BST points out don't show 'a good bit form'*, they show average form and equate to an average finish at the end of the season, presuming he's excluded the first 8 games of the season.

*just think about it logically, how can 2 wins in 2 months be good form?

Just don't bother this Dickos character is an absolute cretin. Oh who's always right

Nah, my wife thinks your a bellend aswell

[esdailles left foot]

Zzz....sorry did someone say something. Ah no it was just a tumbleweed blowing by.

[IDM]

f**k me, didn't you lot have anything better to do on Christmas day afternoon??

[ravenrover]

As I’ve been saying. Rocky start. And since then, decent upper-mid table form. 1.40 points per game since mid September.

Context: In O’Driscoll’s first season, he was in charge for 39 games. We averaged 1.41 points per game.

Can't be right..
Ferguson isn't capable of achieving anything better than 1 ppg

I'm not taking sides , but that's not even comparable 3 months compared to a full season.
Ridiculous stats.

Nothing controversial in your statement of fact BST but the peanut gallery appear to want to ignore or downplay the truth for some reason.

Syd I think you might find that Dickos is actually agreeing with BST and is taking the proverbial 🎅

A classic case of reading who the poster is, rather than reading and digesting the post

Filo is your point levelled at my comment?

No, it's pointing out that sometimes when people disagree all the time, they tend to disagree with the person, rather than the post. I was referring to the previous post in the thread, not yours

thank you

Are we in a good bit of form yet? Or are there still excuses to why we're winning every week?

[BillyStubbsTears]

So the record now is 27 points from the last 17 games. That’s play-off form for getting in for half a season.

Keep up that form till May and we end up on 66 points. Squeeze another couple of wins out and we might even be dark horses for the play offs.

[drfchound]

I hope we do make the play offs Billy.
I had a back to back promotion bet halfway through last season and got 12/1.
We do well in playoff matches.

It really now depends on whether Fergie gets the backing to push on.

[dknward2]

Fergie says he is going sort loans and Jordan out ASAP then at the end of the of the window may look to add some extra bodies
