    The link below shows the points per game of all the current 92 league clubs over the last 9 and a half seasons.

    I created it after the Crawley game, thinking that there can't be many fans that have suffered through as many defeats as Barnsley over the last 10 seasons, given that we've been fighting relegation for most of them.

    Unfortunately as you will be able to see, I was mostly correct. Only 4 teams have a lower PPG than Barnsley and all of those have been in the Premier League for most of those seasons, raking the cash in (though Portsmouth have lost it all.) There might be the odd error here and there but the overall gist remains unfortunately.

    We've suffered more than most!

    Not surprised at all. What I am surprised by is how well our attendances have held up.

    It's getting retweeted a fair bit, pal. If you want crediting, tweet me and I'll do exactly that. :)

    Again, quality bit of research. Kudos.

    Seven potential managers have already withdrawn their interest in the job following this....

    Take away 05/06, and it would be even worse.

    Just spotted an error, Gillingham should have 68 points not 8 in 2010/11. So they would be higher up the table on 1.36 PPG in 50th place instead of 82nd.

    Yes, I reckon we'd be bottom if it started a year later.

    You've actually saved me a job with this, cos I mentioned to a few people in the pub yesterday that I'd work out something similar when I had the time. Like you I was convinced we'd be bottom.

    I don't see why it's such a negative thing.

    Would we rather 10 seasons finishing 7th in league one & having a winning record & been in the top half of that table or 10 seasons in the bottom 8 of the championship?

    It's pretty meaningless really as its all about context but fair play to whoever went to the time & effort to make it

    Me an all Django.

    Those stats don't paint much of a picture, look at Sunderland & Wigan - l'd have loved to have had their past 10 seasons.
