[Albion] To Avoid Potter Bashing - The Staying Up Tracker - season 21-22 Final Update - 11 ABOVE

[Eric the meek]

Take a look at that graph again.

Our season so far can be divided into 3 distinct phases. The difference in the gradient of the blue line is quite noticeable:

1) Matchweeks 1-5 - Out of the blocks fast, but it was an easy start. 'We are now beating the teams around us' - Warren Aspinall.
2) Matchweeks 6-16 - Draw fest. Deja vu. Can't finish.
3) Matchweeks 17-date - We seem to be converting one or two more chances. We compete in every game...

The question is why? What are we now getting right that we didn't always get right earlier on?

It's suddenly all looking very rosy indeed.

Yes, all of a sudden. It wasn't pretty beforehand

You lot should look at my first post

Pretty good. But means nothing as you raised hopes of tonking Palarse and that didn’t happen.

So, next 3 games are free hits.....think we can get some points from them so hopefully all still coming along nicely

Not quite two of them are games that haven’t been arranged yet. They need moving.

Not free hits as MUFC(A), THFC(H) fixture dates to be confirmed

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

So, we need four points from the next nine games to stay on track!

Rumours the Spurs game could be slotted in on Weds 23 Feb. Meaning we'd have 3 home games in 8 days, BUR > TOT > AVL.

Why aren't we using this crappy break weekend to catch up? Seems the obvious oppo.

I haven't been paying attention- why is there a break with no European international games?

 

[chaileyjem]

We often seem to play better against more expansive footballing sides and look lost against the relegation fodder

Is there a pattern. In terms of "teams around us". We beat Burnley and Watford and probably should have beaten Newcastle.
Norwich wasn't great tbf - but we've beaten Brentford twice.

On other hand we've beaten Leicester and Everton and unbeaten v Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool.

After years of complaints it was decided three (?) seasons ago that every club would have a small winter break. In GP year 1 the club went on a short visit to Spain during this break I think.

ahh thanks - was that the nitrous oxide-gate trip?

Yes though it turned out someone had actually reversed the clip so the guys were actually blowing balloons (which IMO is more degenerate but hey ho..)

 

[banjo]

Come on hurry up.

There are international games for pretty much every other federation, plus the on going AFCON. We'd also be without Alzate and Mac Allister if games were continuing over the international break as they've been called up by Colombia and Argentina. The PL want to treat this as a mini break for clubs (and European players) as there wasn't the desired split-week winter break this season. Although unlike previous seasons when no friendlies were permitted we've got Newcastle looking at playing a friendly in Saudi Arabia this time round.

So we are up to March on the tracker and its not February for a week
