Brilliant ! Thank you

We're still top, we're still unbeaten, Fondop is still scoring - it's still our year!

Interesting stats.. eventual champions Fleetwood were 5 points behind at this early stage.
Last season, eventual winners, Macclesfield, only had 5 points from first 5 games and playoff winners, Tranmere, were not even in the running at Christmas!
Our 13 points is a welcome head start and we have a stronger squad and more experienced management behind them. Gates could be a good 50% higher than the 98 point season and we have the Danny Ward money to build a solid financial base.
Cautiously optimistic....
Two additional stats, if you have them would be to know, after the same number of games how many points (a) the current league leaders had and (b) the eventual champions had. If this was available week to week it would give a very clear indication of expectations. Keep up the amazing work!

Thanks Draig. Interesting that Gateshead were level on points at the same stage of that season.

Don't overload him with work, he has trouble getting the present stats right.

You're just worried that you'd have to spend even more time checking them!

It's not information I have immediately to hand when I do the stats and so I will probably give the two new ones as updates along with the 98 point season update every 5 or 6 games.

It’s good to see that we are top in points and PPG table, something we didn’t achieve last season.

Notice that total attendances for first 2 games is down on last year’s total. It’s a good job the frothers don’t look at this thread.

BTW perhaps you could tell me when we scored our 10th goal in all competitions this season, I must have missed it.
