Latics goals: one [/size] Jason Scotland: 2008-09: 21 goals, 10 assists in 45 games with Swansea in the Championship 2009-10: 1 goal, 2 assists in 32 games with Wigan in the Premier League I honestly don't care if some journo doesn't know such things, but its pretty obvious that a poor scoring record at Wigan doesn't mean that a player isn't good enough for the Championship.

Latics goals: one [/size] To be fair to Clough, you could easily read that along the lines of 'We've watched him at Wigan, and we also know (from his time at Kilmarnock) that he can score'. He's not necessarily saying that we know he can score because of his time at wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 So, I've just quickly thrown together a list of players who've played in the Championship and SPL and plotted their goals for game in the SPL against their goals per game in the Championship. The result is the strikers who have played in both score roughly 0.648 times their SPL scoring rate in the Championship. Below is that plot which used 15 players all of whom have made the top 10 scorers in the SPL: ePYgR There is an obvious chance of selection bias here as only players who had good records in Scotland were used. The red dotted line represents a 1:1 ratio between the two league and the green dotted line represents a 2:1 ratio (with SPL Goals: Championship goals). Conor Sammon's best season in the SPL saw him score 15 in 23 games, whilst he scored 17 in 65 overall. If we take this as the upper and lower bounds of his scoring rate and use our SPL conversion then in a season where he manages to play 40 times we would expect him to score somewhere between 7 and 17 goals. That would represent a good return, especially if he does offer that hard working forward aspect up front. Let's see how he gets on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamOfKansas Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I don't get the pessimism I've seen on Facebook about this. Steven Davies has scored a goal for every 5.5 appearances, Conor Sammon has scored in every 5.3 appearances. One wanted to be here, one didn't. Seems a fair enough trade.
