Some random stats

[Yorkshire Blue]

All five of Josh Walker’s goals this season have come in injury time. Two in the first half, three in the second half (all three as sub).

With Bridge on the pitch we have scored 52 goals and conceded 40 for a goal difference of plus 12. Without Bridge on the pitch we have scored 14 and conceded 16 for a goal difference of minus 2.

Of the 14 goals scored without Bridge on the pitch, 4 were scored by Josh Walker and a further 4 were against Forest Green.

We’ve had a home grown player appear in every game but two: the 2-1 win at home to Altrincham, the 3-0 defeat at Boston.

We haven’t used fewer than three keepers in a season since 2017/18.

This is the first time we’ve had two double digit goalscorers in a season since 2016/17. The time before that was 2012-13. The last time we had three double digit goalscorers was 2011/12.

The goal scoring stats really are pathetic

Sounds like a perfect sub to come on in during extra time of a play off final

Just expanding on this, I believe Saturday will be the 400th consecutive first-team matchday squad to contain at least one Academy product since the last time it didn’t occur (1st April 2017 vs Oldham Athletic).

There has been at least one Academy product in 620 of the past 621 squads dating back to 26th January 2013 and 839 out of 845 stretching back to the start of the 2009/10 season.

Looking at National League South with 1 game to go Truro City are top so strong chance they will be in the National League next season.
Assuming (we pray) that Gateshead dont make the playoffs, let alone get promoted a Gateshead v Truro fixture next season is a round trip of over 900 miles for Truro. Is there any other league is England that has this sort of trek ?
Truro also will have long ones up to likely Carlisle and Morecombe.

Far from it in fact, mathematically, anyone in the top six can win the league on Saturday. Truro face St Albans at home who need some sort of result to avoid relegation. I think Torquay will snatch it.

Bim and Gus

Bim only scored 7 for us I think.

Didn't realise the chap had another one capturing or penalty triumph. He mutters the words "Thats cruel" at the end before he cuts off the video

7 in the league, 1 in the FA Cup and a hattrick in the Trophy.

Tim Hooper scored 643 in training, don't they count ?

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Some great investigations there. [thumbs up]

Am I right in concluding that Bridge & Walker should not be on the pitch at the same time? [laughing face]

Ah yes, apologies. How could I forget Brentwood away, I haven’t thawed out yet!

Probably nearest to that is Plymouth Sunderland.

No. Because he doesn't play for us.

457 miles each way, Truro to Gateshead.

Mind you, it's further from Roots Hall to Truro than it is to Gateshead too!
