Interesting Stat.

Since the Championship came into being the team with the
worst GD has always been relegated.
(and it was the same before that in the old L1)
2004/5 Rotherham -34
2005/6 Brighton -32
2006/7 Southend -33
2007/8 Colchester -24
2008/9 Southampton -23
2009/10 Peterborough -34
2010/11 Scunthorpe -34

City currently have the worst -29

So it's time to both score goals and stop shipping them!

 

50 views and no comments! truth hurts me thinks

 

No thats common sense like saying the team with the highest goal difference will get promoted

 

As Andy says pointless stat, stands to reason if you have **** goal difference means your

Nice try to wind us up though, it's like saying league position over the last 12 years have suggested we are the better team than you, pointless saying it when it's obvious

 

although you couldnt beat us when we played?? just saying!

 

.........................City wins..Draw......Rovers wins .....City goals...Rovers goals
At Bristol City........24 ........18............11................. 86.............55
At Bristol Rovers .....19........15...........18..................68..............68
Total....................43..........33...........29.................154.............123

Taken from Wiki, don't give a **** about 82 it was still Bristol City, so just some stats for you

This don't come as I printed it sorry, it closes up the spaces so used dots

 

The point is, and it's a fine line, that the team with the worst GD doesn't
always end up bottom, but ends up in the bottom three.
Your only hope may be Portsmouth.

 

taken from wiki.... it must be true then

i might add stats from another club and combine it with rovers stats to make it fair seeing that your using stats from 2 different clubs (bcfc and bcfc 1982 ltd)

 

Don't matter about 82 mate still City still play in red and white, you still ain't as good as us!

 

quite strange for a rovers 'fan' to go to all that trouble and retrieve these stats for the Championship, what interest would he or the rovers have in the Championship?

 

Never were and never will be.

 

dont matter about 82 my sides yeah lets forget your a NEW club since 82 you 82er (your OS says so too)

 

and since 82 we have achieved more than you oh me sides

 

we got better head to heads since your existance

 

Bristol Rovers -- The forgotten club.

 

thread was dead, i say a line "truth hurts" and look at the bites

 

here he goes again, getting angry

 

pure jealousy wiz

on a serious note, you have a better pitch than us so i give you some credit

 

All this banter is quite sad really.

The reality is we are a major UK city who have had no Premier League representatives which is frankly shocking.

I would rather we were both Premier League clubs putting Bristol on the map and aiming to finish higher than one another in the highest league in the land because in reality neither club has a lot to boast about and that's the truth and yes it hurts!
