Iāll try and put together as much data as I can and I can then transfer into an excel spreadsheet that you can sort the data how you like. If anyone wants it, DM me and Iāll email it.
Then Iāll just sit back and watch the carnage begin
I used to play online poker not so many years ago. I was pretty good too, one of a very small percentage of winners. I got good by spending lots of my spare time studying, with the help of a few good mentors. I won because I made fewer mistakes than the players I was playing against. One of the stats I havenāt seen mentioned, by the way, cos pretty much all sports and games are won by the person/team that makes the least mistakes.
Now there is so much information available on optimal game theory, and so many stats available while in play the games are barely beatable at any kind of level. You can still win but the edge that was once there,by being the best at spotting patterns and exploiting them is now so minimal itās hardly worth the bother. Reading this it feels like football is going that way.
If you enjoy trawling through stats then fair play. To me, even though I donāt have a beer now, it is still about spending time with my Sons, meeting friends, and seeing familiar faces. The atmosphere and most importantly the memories.
I have watched enough football over the years to be able to have a reasonable opinion about football, to analyse it to such an extent to watch matches more than once and trawling through stats feels painful to me. Guess itās a good thing we arenāt all the same.
Make of that what you will.
Comley and Kinsella are the ball winnerās and the others are the ball players .
Didnāt really need reams of stats to tell me this.
Each to their own I suppose.
Can I have stats please on the loudest Walsall game by boos this season in decibels and which Walsall player now or former is statistically most likely to be in a Serial killer documentary
Thank you
Exactly. And I was giving my opinion. I know you donāt deal with opinions but thereās no stats to bore people with on this one. It was my opinion, and I gave it
You seem a little confusedā¦.but Iām not sure that was too difficult tbh
āNo one is telling you what your opinion is at all. Your opinion is your opinion, all the stats are, are a tool to use or not use to help form, substantiate or debunk an opinion. Your eyes are one form of this, a conversation in a pub is another and a match report is anotherā¦.they can all contribute to someone forming an opinion and stats are just another tool.
What I would say is, the most well informed opinions are just that. Well informed. If you have an opinion on politics or a person, youād do well to read up or watch more informative programmes on that subject to gain a more informed opinion.
No one has ever looked at stats and become LESS informed after reading them. How much notice you take is down to an individual, or the subject or whether you want to be swayed from your preconceived opinion in the first place.
Ultimately itās still just your opinion thoughā
I mean I couldnāt have been more clear about it tbh
Stats are for premier league level . You can see everything in between the fouls, long balls ,long thows , time wasting with your own eyes at this level .
I saw on SSN a member of the refereeing union arguing the minimum ban he should receive is half a season and that his personal opinion was he should be banned from football permanently.
Iām not sure anyone did, did they?
