rog of the rovers Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Bored waiting for a meeting at work, 10 mins to spare.... Through 8 games.... With having just read the Matt Jansen autobiography, and on the back of a couple of wins in the league I've come over all nostalgic and decided to have a look at the current table, compared to this stage in the 2000/2001 promotion winning season. Through 8 games 19/20 - P8 W4 D1 L3 F9 A8 Pts13 00/01 - P8 W3 D3 L2 F13 A10 Pts12 *Of course, that 2000/2001 team would lose the next two, before going on a brilliant unbeaten run. Other Seasons The 2012/13 that nearly went down in the Kean/Black/Berg/Bowyer/Appleton/Bowyer season 12/13 - P8 W4 D3 L1 F16 A12 Pts15 Our highest Championship finish in recent times, under Bowyer. 13/14 - P8 W2 D3 L3 F12 A10 Pts9 The full season of Rudy and Rhodes... 14/15 - P8 W4 D1 L3 F14 A14 Pts13 The False hope of Lambert season (though Bowyer was still in charge for the first 16 Championship games).... 15/16 - P8 W1 D4 L3 F9 A9 Pts7 The C0yle relegation season 16/17 - P8 W1 D2 L5 F10 A17 Pts5 Last Season 18/19 - P8 W2 D5 L1 F8 A9 Pts11 And the League One Promotion Season? 17/18 - P8 W4 D1 L3 F12 A8 Pts13 Proof that the start we've had is above average when compared to previous campaigns. Looking at the recent seasons in the Championship (from 12/13 - present) 19/20 is above average in terms of points return, 13 pts vs average (10.4 pts) and also our best start to a season defensively in 7 seasons. A good start doesn't count for anything if you don't keep progressing, but interesting (and dare I say slightly encouraging?) nevertheless. 1 Quote
