    According to this only Huddersfield & Cardiff have received less income since 2010 than Watford(with some missing records from Bournemouth "surprise, surprise" not included).

    However, surely we'd have received more income from 4 years in the EPL than £294m let alone since 2010. I think the figures are a bit on the low side.

    Just had confirmation it's from 2010 to 2017, so the figures make a bit more sense now.

    Just one more win needed to break our premier league points record! Joint second best points tally after 29 games in the top flight.

    The current position is:
    • 7 points better than this time last year (43 vs 36). This is the same as after the last game.
    • 12 points better than the comparable fixtures last year (43 vs 31). This is the same as after the last game
    • 12 points better than the '40 point' line (43 vs 31). This is 2 points better than after the last game.

    I see you are still holding out on the y-axis scale change. Clearly a man with a strong mind. Hope you are forced to be flexible soon ;-)

    I hope so too! I don't want to tempt fate until we breach 45 points.

    David, yours is the factual testament to our progress.

    Thank you.

    One q.

    How far did injuries limit us in previous seasons?

    That was all we talked about for the last 3 years.

    Hardly mentioned this time. Must be worth 5 points. 10 points?

    Good point regarding injuries. Our first season was very good in terms of lack of injuries and we got 45 points. Our second and third seasons were blighted by injury. This season we've been pretty injury free again.

    So I would say, the injury situation played a massive part in previous seasons. I would say it has cost us between 5-10 points, as you say.

    Once again, thank you for this David. Looking at those graphs is making more than just the lines go up! (Too much information?)

    Going to need to extend that graph at 7.20pm on Saturday. What? So, I’m an optimist.

    You are indeed an optimist - especially if you think that the match will end at 7.20. The ref will put us out of our misery at 7.25 at the earliest.

    That looks so much like a euphemism or an insult.:cool: I shall endeavour to use it in the future.

    So many positives and amazing goals in a season of glory yet this graph is bringing me the most joy.

    Excellent thread, would you be able to do an up to date table of the mini league?

    We must be top by a distance.

    Wolves have taken quite a few points off the top 6.

    Sorry for the delay, I'm never quite as motivated after a defeat!

    The current position is:
    • 7 points better than this time last year (43 vs 36). This is the same as after the last game.
    • 12 points better than the comparable fixtures last year (43 vs 31). This is the same as after the last game
    • 11 points better than the '40 point' line (43 vs 32). This is 1 points worse than after the last game.

  18. You are going to have to move Southampton in the comparable games chart, because next up is Man U...
    Sorry!

    Using the results from the first half of the season and applying these rules for the second half of the season:

    We won at home = we will draw away
    We drew at home = we will lose away
    We lost at home = we will lose away

    We won away = we will win at home
    We drew away = we will win at home
    We lost away = we will draw at home

    From the first 11 games in the second half of the season we are already 5 points up on "par"

    Using these rules we should gain 14 points from our remaining 8 games, giving us an end of season total of 57 points. (4 wins at home plus a draw with Arsenal - 2 defeats away plus a draw at Huddersfield)

    Right then David. We have tolerated this long enough. You are proving more stubborn than our beloved Theresa May. If you don't change the Y-axis after tonight's game then the country may dissolve into a decade of civil unrest. Do your duty.

    Hey, don't blame me! Blame the international break and then us losing which always reduces my posting frequency!

    Okay here we go! Another three points! People have been begging for the graph axis to be increased but excel is just clinging onto the 45 point line (though we do sneak over it)

    The current position is:
    • 9 points better than this time last year (46 vs 37). This is 2 points better than after the last game.
    • 12 points better than the comparable fixtures last year (46 vs 34). This is the same as after the last game
    • 12 points better than the '40 point' line (46 vs 34). This is 2 points better than after the last game.

    10/10 for creative charting having slipped 46 into a maximum of 45. Quite impressive. How long can you hold out?

    Nothing wrong with our progress creaping over the Y-axis limits, it shows how well we are doing - the detail doesn't matter.

    The same happens to me, when I do IQ tests :D

    Dave you tease us. Please release the 55 point line as I actually believe we are going to get there soon!
