A stark difference in form this season.

Recommended Posts

It is interesting to observe that over the season to date we have fared far better against bottom half teams as the following tables from 365.com show. Quite frankly, I didn''t realise the difference was so stark. The data also fly in the face of generally received wisdom that we trip our ourselves against the ''weaker'' teams. I know that the picture has changed somewhat since Glenn came, but the difference is still stark.

On the plus side we have played five more games against top half then bottom. Infact looking at our fixtures, our next five or so home games are all winnable!

Interesting observation, but let''s hope they''re all still in the bottom half by the time we get to play them! Although if our current form under Glenn continues it shouldn''t make much difference.
