Statistical comparison with last Championship season by
BlueBoots 12 Nov 2023 14:38Just over a third of the way through the season, another international break, so an update on the few stats I provided in an earlier post:
Comparison with our last Championship season after the same number of games - big contrast from being rock bottom and 5 points adrift [grin]
23 Hull 16 2 2 4 (7 9) 2 1 5 (6 12) -8 15
24 Ipswich Town 16 0 6 2 (6 10) 1 1 6 (6 16) -14 10
1 Leicester City 16 6 0 2 (11 4) 7 0 1 (18 6) +19 39
2 Ipswich Town 16 7 0 1 (25 15) 5 3 0 (11 6) +15 39
So as well as the Pd 16; PTS +28; GD +25; GF +23 calculated by Nthsuffolkblue which factors in the opposition, we are also slightly better off, Pd 16; PTS +29; GD +29; GF +24 if you just consider the number of games.
For those who would like to compare with other teams in other seasons, other than Leicester this season, we have had the best start to a Championship season by any team in the past 20 seasons after 16 games.

Just to put into perspective how good a start we've had to the season, the League One Table after 16 games last season:
1 Plymouth Argyle 16 8 0 0 (15 3) 4 2 2 (17 14) +15 38
2 Ipswich Town 16 5 2 1 (15 6) 6 1 1 (16 8) +17 36
Going up a division, we are also Pd 16; PTS +3; GD -2; GF +5 on where we were at this stage last year; more points and goals scored, but have conceded 7 more goals.
And finally, for those who like to track it, yes, we're on target...projected totals are now 112 Points, 104 Goals.
