I've been thinking back to a video from our friend Benjamin Bloom at the start of the season. In it he said that successful Championship teams need at least 30 good results, half of which are usually achieved with positive performances with the rest being efficient rather than pretty displays.
In both of our recent promotions, we've exceeded 15 'good' wins but with the bar likely to be lower this year, I thought I'd track our season so far against this theory. Not much of a surprise that we're slightly behind where we want to be, but it will be interesting to see how it develops into the new year.
