Surprising football statistics

[aggi]

Sometimes you just see a stat, like the Traore having more dribbles than the whole Burnley team a few years ago one, that surprises you.

A few I've come across recently:

Callum Wilson at Bournemouth hasn't had a shot on target in the past 15 games.

Phil Bardsley has never received a straight red card in his career.

Jack Grealish has won 46 50:50s this season. Ashley Westwood has won 4.

Blackburn fans are even bigger tossers than we thought.

typos*

But you knew I'd say that...

Oh Boss. The plural of typo is typos - typo's denotes ownership. Snigger snigger.

Cue Boss saying 'I was just testing'.

To be honest though Boss I'd say that people who pick up on these things are sad. Oh, hang on a minit.

Jack Grealish has won 46 50:50s this season. Ashley Westwood has won 4.

I don't believe Grealish has won any 50-50s. He might have won a lot of free kicks by jumping out of the way of 50-50s and bursting into tears.

[houseboy]

I thought they were bigger than that

No they aren't. They are MUCH bigger than that.

[fidelcastro]

Burnley and Preston North End have never met in the FA Cup.

PNE have now played more League games than anyone else. was Notts County until they went out of the league

This also means that they have the worst ever fans. Because some of their fans have missed more league games than any other club.

They have also spent more years in 24 team divisions and none in the 20 team Premier League

[MrTopTier]

Burnley have failed to score, in the first half in their last 11 premier league games.

I'm not so good at spotting 'em but harmonica is.

I'm not normally a violent man, but if anything can drive me to violins, it's this sort of pun.

[Bosscat]

I wish people would stop harping on about stuff like this.

[dsr]

Some things are vile, but this is viola.

[Down_Rover]

That's really got me banjo'd

Banjoed actually

[Colburn_Claret]

You don't have to harp on about it

[Hibsclaret]

It is over 3500 days since the scummy lot beat us....

Well that was sod's law

[Spiral]

We've played the fewest triangle pass moves of anyone in the league this season.

(That's a low key one.)

[Zlatan]

Well that was sod's law

On Radio 5 this morning they were harping on about how he'll be in the England team for the Euro's now he's scored again...

[Clarets4me]

Andy Payton scored the first goal across the top 4 Divisions in the 1990's,( the first in Hull's 3-2 win over Sunderland, early k.o. on New Year's Day 1990 ) and also scored the last goal of the 1990's, ( a 90th minute winner in a 3-2 win over Oxford Utd, 28th December 1999 ... It was the day Jimmy McIlroy opened " his " stand, a combination of a slightly delayed k.o. & stoppages meant that was the last league goal of the 1990's ) ...

Since 2015 Brighton have the tenth highest net spend of all clubs in Europe.

Jonjo Shelvey is Newcastle’s top scorer this season. He has at least twice as many Premier League goals as any teammate.

Man Utd, Chelsea and Spurs have all won in the same round of Premier League games just once this season, back in September.

[Dyched]

Alison Becker has performed more baptisms in 2020 than he’s let in goals.

He scored on Sunday against Sheffield United, I’m sure that shot must have been on target
Don’t believe everything you read

Might have been a header though. He still may have no SHOTS on target for all I know.

Wasn’t a header, I watched the game

That's brilliant!

We have had a Lee, have ever had a Burn? Even a Brun would be acceptable!

[IanMcL]

Answering my own question for the BBC....would could arrange Barnes and Lee maybe!
