I think I read recently that we'd taken 71 points out of the last 225 on offer at home.

Quote from: itbrvilla on October 05, 2015, 03:31:26 PMQuote from: Ads on October 05, 2015, 03:21:33 PMI love my mileage versus wins comparisons, so I had a look the other day.Since the 2010/11 season we’ve won 27 out of 99 at home. We actually won eight home games that year.You can factor O’Neill into it too, as we only won 8 home games in the league the year before, which is the reason why we failed to qualify for the Champions League. Part of the reason under O’Neill was that we were too one dimensional in that we had to get it wide quick and in behind to square them up or hit them on the break. All but four or five sides and Bolton would come and park the bus, so we struggled to break them down.Under the subsequent managers it’s been a real absence of quality in the midfield to either cover the back four or supply the front men. We bizarrely have some quality players in Grealish, Gil, Traore, Gana, Veretout and Sancherz to choose from now, but we lack cohesion and organisation.Its always been a very easy place to come and play. Its a wonderful ground and its that grandeur that allows lesser teams to raise their game. Dreadful reading .Sorry, that should have read 09/10 season under O'Neill. Its been 99 games since then, which for me is 17,028 miles at a rate of 631 miles per win.I love mil miles v wins v cost comparisons.

We mocked McLeish when he punched the air after drawing at home to Stoke.Little did we know we'd be looking back on it as a Golden Age.
Didn't we win 10 on the bounce under SGT or is the old memory playing tricks? Perhaps it was 3 but it feels like 10 in today's money.
