Well. Bristol Rovers do.
In the 16 league fixtures in the three months since Matt Taylor was appointed we have drawn just once.
The 1-1 draw with Cheltenham has now been followed by 15 games which we have either won or lost.
Under Matt Taylor we have now gained 22 points from 16 league matches.
Maybe it is better to win some and lose some rather than have a run of draws.
Interestingly, we have managed to score at least once in every Away game under Matt Taylor.
We are still struggling to find that clean sheet in a Home encounter.
What are the odds of two consecutive 0-0 draws now?

It’s basically why Win Percentage isn’t the metric you should use. Always Points Per Game.

Wasn’t it Jasper Carrott in his early days who said about supporting his beloved Birmingham City…. Some you lose, some you draw?

Metrics and stats don’t mean anything for one of the most overreactive fan bases in the country.
We lose a game, we’re in a relegation battle
We win a game, HMS P*as the league is resurrected for the 13th time.
A new player has a one bad game, he should be playing up the downs.
A new player has a good game, he’s the messiah.

We were relegated out of the Football League and all that happened is some folk had a chat in a pub. |

There are loads of teams in our division that either win or lose.
The key is winning more than you lose, that is why the Gas are mid table not in the higher reaches. If you look at Derby as an example they have drawn 6 but won 20 at the time of typing.
Will be the case for 3 points per game, I would sooner see win or lose, makes it bloody exciting, however, win or draw is the Nirvana. Unless you are Man City we can but dream.......

Hope not, I'm turning a tidy profit betting a tenner a game on both teams to score. Since end Nov/early Dec I've placed it most matches, forgot for the second Exeter game but so far I've lost twice (so £20) and won around £90... |
