Average Points Per Match per Month

Sun Nov 28, 2010 4:43 pm

Been a bit bored this afternoon and as much has been made about DJ and Novembers, I have been through all the matches under DJ and calculated the average number of points per match per month.

May is actually the worst month, but we've only ever played 4 matches and only won one of them. So not particularly accurate statistically.

Findings are:

August 1.733333333
September 1.6
October 2.05
November 0.919444444
December 1.616666667
January 2.066666667
February 1.023333333
March 1.61
April 1.027619048
May 0.75

Good work John looks like we will have an ok December (except Boxing Day) and January but as February is basically the reverse fixtures from November we can all look forward to the next big hiccup.

That of course is only the foreplay to the big bottling job in April. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

If as expected and we have money to spend in Jan then DJ can have no excuses like he has in previous seasons :ayatollah:

Its interesting that our best months October and January, are followed immediately by our 2 worst months November and February. Baring in mind that this is an average over 5/6 years there definately seems to be a trend there! :o

Are we more likely to get injuries in November and February or are we complacent after the previous month?

Jon check his record at Wolves and you will see that the same pattern existed there whilst he was Manager. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

And December, once these 2 months are done and dusted then hopefully February won't matter ;)
