However I can't leave the post without "correcting" your maths. Over a season it is 19.36 wins (19) 21.78 draws (22) with 5 defeats which gives 79 points so good enough for a team to finish 5th-8th in the majority of the last 20 years. I don't believe I have said that I don't think Malone is very good defensively, I was just showing that stats can be manipulated to show any narrative. I still stand by stance that we are an average, inconsistent team that has struggled to put together a run. How do you work that one out? Highest 7th place finish in the last 20 years had 78 points (Wolves 14/15), and highest 8th place was 77 (Derby 14/15). The only season 79 points wouldn’t have been enough was when Fulham finished 6th with 80 in 16/17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you do it for 40 games? 52 minutes ago, Nick_Ram said: Whether the total amount is enough to get us into the playoffs in any of season is irrelevant. The fact is that its a considerable improvement on this season. Which in this season is enough to get into the playoffs.. But changing our left back wouldn't have made much of a difference to our results. When has our left back cost us a goal this season? The only times that I can think of is by Lowe and Malone. 44 minutes ago, Ghost of Clough said: How do you work that one out?

My mistake on 8th. 54 minutes ago, Nick_Ram said: But thanks for "correcting my maths" ? Woops on your behalf! Fine completing the season on your maths ?

Fine completing the season on your maths ? Because that's how many games we have played, and its a comparison of where we could be at if Malone was more involved? Thought that was pretty obvious! So apologies, will try make myself more clear next time. Then I refer to all previous posts of mine that It's not about being the sole person responsible for conceding a goal. Its his influence all over the pitch and how we benefit as a team with his presence. Which then led me to providing the stats to back up my thoughts.
