Looking at that table, that's not a bad return then.

Another goal keeper???
Hull City are one of a number of clubs who are interested in signing talented Reading goalkeeper Luke Southwood in the summer.
The 21-year-old is highly-rated by the Royals and has featured regularly for their U23 side over the years.
However, a loan move to Eastleigh seems to have really benefited the stopper, who has shone in the National League, helping the side to six wins in their last eight.
And, according to the Daily Mail, the Tigers have sent scouts to watch the youngster as they weigh up a summer move.

Given they are allowing Marshall's contract run down i suspect its another case of reducing the wage bill .. let a decent player leave .. get a cheap option .. classic Allam business agenda and tactic
I suspect it's just rubbish, we've already replaced Marshall with Long.
OLM. Would you be able to message me as I need some help with my user account. I am being flooded with emails from Not606.
Seems to be a problem a few posters are having, I've alerted the supermods, hopefully they'll resolve the issue.
As the old saying goes...You can never have enough keepers.
I’m not sure if this has been posted, if so my apologies, great piece on Bowen..
Having scored 34 goals in 18 months for Hull City, it was little surprise Premier League clubs were sniffing around Jarrod Bowen in the January transfer window.he whole situation was very uncomfortable': Jarrod Bowen admits he turned down January move to Cardiff after they wanted him to replace tragic Emiliano Sala
But when a bid of £12million was tabled by Cardiff Citytowards the deadline, it left the 22-year-old forward feeling deeply conflicted given that The Bluebirds earlier marquee signing Emiliano Sala was still missing, presumed dead.
'The whole situation was very uncomfortable,' is how the Championship marksman explains his emotions on hearing of Cardiff's interest.
Of course, it was nothing to do with how I view Cardiff as a club, and any player will tell you it's their dream to play in the Premier League.
'But the whole story around Sala was just so tragic. I know it caused a lot of shock and upset in our dressing-room at Hull, and I am sure it was the same around the country.
To join Cardiff knowing that he was meant to play for them would have been incredibly difficult and not something that filled me with any enthusiasm.
'Of course, any transfer would have needed Hull's approval in any case, but from my personal point of view it was never a starter, not under those circumstances. It just felt wrong.
'Now we know for certain that Emiliano died. It still feels unbelievable that his life could be cut short like that, it seems so cruel.'
Bowen's viewpoint is entirely natural. Young footballers often get a bad rap for being self-centred and money-led, but he could see - and more importantly felt - the bigger picture.
Since taking his decision, Bowen has dedicated himself to trying to get Hull in the play-offs, even though they are outsiders after a poor start to the season. He has scored 19 goals this season and will relish a shoot-out with the division's leading scorer Teemu Pukki at Norwich City on Wednesday night.
Ironically, Norwich are one of the clubs who are also monitoring Bowen in recent weeks, as are Everton whose manager Marco Silva was in charge on Humberside when the youngster made his first league start in 2017, memorable for the wrong reasons.
'Spurs beat us 7-1, definitely a case of "welcome to the Premier League", recalls Bowen. 'I came off at 4-1 down and as soon as I sat down, I looked up to see Harry Kane running through to get his hat-trick.
'There were some good moments that season as well. I played when we beat Manchester United in the second leg of the League Cup semi-final at our place.
'I remember Tom Huddlestone running up to take a penalty, I was on the edge of the box getting ready to run in for any rebound; Paul Pogba was one side of me, Zlatan Ibrahimovic the other! It was surreal - these were guys I'd only ever seen on the TV.'
Bowen grew up in Leominster on the opposite side of the country to Hull. When his local club Hereford United went bust, a few league clubs came in but he was won over by Hull's first-team manager Steve Bruce showing a personal interest.
'I sat in his office the week before Hull played Arsenal in the FA Cup Final and there were a couple of tickets for Wembley on his desk - not meant for me I should say!
'I gave these tickets a quick glance and Steve joked "You're only here to get my cup final tickets!"
'It broke the ice and the academy coach Tony Pennock was really good to me as well, so that made my mind up.'
Hull's relegation gave Bowen his big chance and he's shone in The Championship, where he currently plays on the right of a 4-3-3 where he has been able to cut inside to great effect on his favoured left foot.
Many of his former team-mates have achieved the Premier League dream including Liverpool's cult left-back, Andy Robertson. 'We had a lot of duels in training with me on the right wing. We knew he was going to be a top player but what he's achieved since he left has been unbelievable,' says Bowen.
Will he be next? Certainly, his name has been linked with bigger clubs all season and he says; 'I've had all the banter. If I go to clean my boots, one or two of the lads will joke: "You packing them away because you're leaving!" That's just how the football environment is.
'What's pleased me is that I've shown I'm not a one-season wonder. I didn't start this season too well and my girlfriend Jasmine was very supportive, and I've been able to go on a run and got more goals than I did last season. Now I just want to score as many as I can
Bowen is still eligible for England under-21s and the game at Carrow Road is his last chance to impress manager Aidy Bothroyd before he names his next squad on Thursday.
Competition is fierce with the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, James Maddison, Demarai Gray and Callum Hudson-Odoi to name just four rivals but what pleases Bowen is the number of players who have successfully made the jump from Championship to Premier League.
'Look at Harvey Barnes,' he says. 'He was at West Brom the first half of the season, gone back to Leicester and he's gone into their first-team and done well. Taking Leicester as a club, they've signed Gray and Maddison from the Championship and they've also done well.
'It shows the gap might not be as big as everyone seems to think, the Championship is a very good standard itself.'
'I'm not itching to leave Hull but everyone wants to play at as high a level as they can and it would be daft to pretend otherwise. All I can do is continue playing well and scoring goals and see where it takes us.'
Sounds a really nice guy...

Who can blame him?
The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
Nige said he went to Doncaster vs Bristol Rovers on Tuesday night. Wonder who he was there to watch?
Doncaster:
Bristol Rovers
If it's a goalkeeper we're looking at, it's obviously not going to be Bonham (although he was the reason we got promoted under Steve Bruce, he was in goal for Watford that fateful day). Marosi has had a great season for Doncaster, looks a solid keeper.
The centre half we have been linked to at Doncaster previously, Niall Mason, was sacked by Doncaster for sexual assault convictions and is currently in prison. So if it was a defender, Lockyer (who plays for Wales) is the best bet as the other defenders on show were average (Butler is decent, but he's 35. Ehab probably loves him).
Midfield you've got Whiteman for Donny, who is a decent young CM, but the best bet is it's experience to replace Henriksen, and he didn't play, so my money would be on Ali Crawford, who would be a direct replacement for Evandro.
Wide players were mostly loan players, but Kieran Sadlier (who scored) is the brightest spark of the lot, having come through the West Ham academy.
Up front, the obvious choice is Marquis, but given that Doncaster rejected an offer from Portsmouth for £2m (which, let's face it, isn't the sort of money we'll be chucking around), can't see us going for him. Johnson Clarke-Harris for Rovers has 8 goals in 10 games and is a hell of a finisher. Not the quickest, but he seems to score plenty.
Obviously this is a chance to look at players, it is by no means a definite conformation. But League 1 players will almost certainly be the order of the day next season.
Doncaster:
- 13 Marosi
- 17 Blair
- 31 Downing (Paul)
- 6 Butler
- 3 Andrew
- 26 Coppinger (sub: Beestin)
- 11Crawford
- 10Rowe
- 7 Wilks Booked at 49mins (sub May)
- 9 Marquis
- 22 Sadlier (sub Smith)
Bristol Rovers
- 13 Bonham
- 15 J Clarke Booked at 90mins
- 4 Lockyer
- 5 Craig
- 3 Holmes-Dennis Booked at 70mins (sub: Partington)
- 6 Upson Booked at 74mins (sub: Sinclair)
- 25 Ogogo
- 8 O Clarke
- 17 Jakubiak (sub:Moore)
- 19 Clarke-Harris
- 20 Reilly
