Recommended Posts

            1.     Wolverhampton Wanderers                     21             48
2 Cardiff 21             44
3 Bristol City 21             40
4 Derby 21             38
5 Aston Villa 21             37
6 Sheffield United 21             37
7 Leeds 21             33
8 Middlesbrough 21             32
9 Ipswich 21             32
10 Preston 21             32
11 Nottingham Forest 21             30
12 Fulham 21             29
13 Brentford 21             27
14 Reading 21             27
15 Sheffield Wednesday 21             27
16 Norwich 21             27
17 Millwall 21             23
                   


Bristol City had 40 points at this stage of last season (21 games).... Only managed 27 more points from the remaining 25 fixtures to finish on 67 and 8 points outside the playoffs. Fulham on the other hand came out of nowhere!! If Norwich have the same form for the remainder of the season as they did for final 25 games of last, and pick up the same points, they will finish on 76 points!!

For all of the talk of no one running away with the league like last year, the gap between 1st and 3rd is only 2 points different and there is actually more of a gap 2nd to 3rd. Say it quietly but Leeds and ourselves are starting to pull away a bit...

A long way to go and far too close to call. At this stage last season Wolves had an 8 point gap over 3rd, we have six. Similarly there was a 16 points gap between top and 8th. That same points gap this season takes you down to Wigan in 16th. So tight this year with any one team capable of beating another.

Just out of interest, and yes I'd like to assess the position as the season progresses, are there websites where one can see in past Championship seasons what the position was at various levels of games played?

Quest TV mentioned on Saturday that the team leading the table after 21 games have gone on to automatic promotion in each of the last ten years. Don't want to count chickens but nice stat!

Slightly concerning seeing Bristol City up there after 21 games last season and how they faded away - but they were distracted by the league cup I seem to think.
