    I am struggling to remember the last time city finish the end of the season and actually had a good goal difference but during our history we have an overall poor goal difference.

    Between 1888 to 2010 City had played 358 and from those games we have a goal difference of -82

    Hopefully next season will be better especially if we can keep players like Jamie Wilson fit as looks like Caulker could be on his way to Swansea.

    "Between 1888 to 2010 City had played 358 and from those games we have a goal difference of -82"

    That's roughly 3 games per year, are you sure this stat is correct andy? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    From the stats that I saw. I did think the same when I saw the amount of games but I don't know how many games used to be played when the club first started and did they play any games during both world wars?

    Those stats are miles out!

    122 years at an average of 40 games per season would be 4,880 games

    Not a clue if games were played during both wars but wasn't our promotion from league 1 and our 1st year in the championship? (Can't remember if we were just over or under the 0 mark off the top of me head)
