Expected goals which is a vague chances to success ratio has us around 18th.
All that said most teams that go up are lucky, just look at Sheff U and Norwich. We remind me of norwich, rode our luck in the early part winning a lot of games by 1 now we need to step it up and accelerate. Hopefully the greater options on the bench will help. I'm very hopeful of that painful few weeks in may when the playoffs are on
I don't think we have been lucky to be honest chap. What results do you think we've got that we weren't due?
We've been lucky in that Grabban and Watson have remained fit, but take key players out of other sides and they struggle too.
We keep it tight at the back and win games by the odd goal. I accept that Grabban is scoring most of those odd goals but without him we probably wouldn't play the way we do. As he's remained fit, we've been able to play to plan A all season.
Only Sheffield Wednesday have managed to beat us by a margin of more than 1 goal this season. That's excellence, not luck.
