TeemuVanBasten 3,328 Posted October 25, 2022 2 points in 6 games in the Championship, is actually a worst return than any 6 game spell under Bryan Gunn. He had 2 x runs of 6 games with 3 point returns, but none with 2 points. I think we'd need to go back to Peter Grant September & October 2006 to match that. I believe I'm correct in saying that this is our worst run of 6 games for points outside of the Premier League since October 2006. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We had a run of one point in six games during the 2016-17 season under Alex Neil (including five consecutive defeats). We also had a run of two points in seven games in 2017-18 under Daniel Farke.

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,035 Posted October 25, 2022 This is an unacceptable run of results in this league....for a team at the bottom, let alone one who's supposedly going for promotion.

Branston Pickle 4,150 Posted October 25, 2022 Odd to include wba and blackpool, as those were +ve results. Surely the run excluding them is worse (2pts in 6 games). I don’t think I’ll ever quite understand how people (mis)use stats…. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

League 1 is where we are heading on this form. 8 points off of 22nd, and the team in 22nd has two games in hand. We've lost more games this season than the teams in 22nd and 23rd, and the same number as the teams in 17th, 18th, 19th, and 21st. None of them have gone and spend an eight figure sum on two centre midfielders this summer. We're in a complete mess, and you are in stuck in deep denial. Edited October 26, 2022 by TeemuVanBasten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You call out other people for making statements that they don't provide evidence for, then make statements like that.Where were your statements suggesting automatic promotion when we had 23 points out of 27? You pick and choose everything to paint the most negative picture possible. Edited October 26, 2022 by littleyellowbirdie 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we’d not got lambert we’d probably still be floundering around in league 1. Butterfly effect I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had we beat Preston (we should have done) and Luton (didn't deserve to, but had we done) we would be second in the league. If's but's and maybe's obviously, but it does demonstrate how quickly things change in this league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not as much as a maniac as you looked when you just bumped a thread from 2008 to try and point score against another poster mind.
