The Championship Thread

[Polly 433]

No, those placings were based on a very simple calculation based on previous meetings; some of the calculations are definitely suspect.

I made some calculations based on how I actually think results will go, for the top teams only, and they come out different, not by much though.

I do not have West Brom winning the league and still think it will take around 73 points to get in the play offs

As good a formulae as any?

I've seen Gestede was asked to leave Middlesbrough. Apparently he has only scored 6 goals in 3.5 years of playing for them.

Surely all of those goals were against us?

I'm hoping finishing at least second will be enough this year

Mitrovic banned for 3 games

That is massive.

Thats like half the Fulham team being out. Bigger even than Grabban being out for us

Yep huge result for us and the championship! .... watch us not take advantage

I've still got us to finish 5th behind Fulham, but to beat them at home.

Mitrovic has only missed three league games this season; Fulham won two of those games and drew the other.

Those games were at home to QPR and Middlesbrough and away at Charlton.

Nice rest and hit of motivation before the playoffs.

On the positive side he may never really get match fit?

Just checked. He's played against us 5 times (for multiple clubs) scoring 8 times. His next best record against any club is 3 goals.

1/6 of his goals are against us.

I'm sure most other strikers at this level have comparable records lol.

Can I just ask where you got those stats from?

Transfermarkt.

Transfermarkt.

He has scored 4 against Birmingham.

Those stats against us do not make sense; he has played against us 5 times winning 3, drawing 3 and losing 4.

I just did the search for Championship stats. Maybe he has scored Brum in a cup or something as he's only scored 3 against them in the Champ.

I've gone a bit deeper in to the stats. He has 5 starts and 5 substitute appearances against us.

He as played 418 minutes against us and therefore that means that he averages a goal every 52 minutes against us.

FFS!

Tbh, there must be about 20 wank Championship strikers that get to look like Pele when they play us.

Andre Wisdom (Derby) is in hospital after being stabbed in a robbery. He was visiting relatives in Toxteth, Liverpool.

All the best for recovery

knife attack culture continues unabated nasty stuff

 

[ZedRed]

It must just have been a misunderstanding. No person from Liverpool would ever do anything malicious.
