How are we really doing?

We've all got our opinions but I thought it would be interesting to compare our results for the first five matches with previous seasons.

This season: 07/08
Matches played: 3 home and 2 away
Won: 1
Lost: 3
Drew: 1
Goals scored: 8
Goals conceded: 10
Points tally: 4

Last season: 06/07
Matches played: 2 home and 3 away
Won: 2
Lost: 1
Drew: 2
Goals scored: 5
Goals conceded: 7
Points tally: 8

The 05/06 season
Matches played: 2 home and 3 away
Won: 1
Lost: 2
Drew: 2
Goals scored: 4
Goals conceded: 7
Points tally: 5

The 04/05 season
Matches played: 3 home and 2 away
Won: 1
Lost: 3
Drew: 1
Goals scored: 6
Goals conceded: 10
Points tally: 4

Conclusion: We have scored more goals so far than we managed in the opening five games of any of the previous three seasons so our strike force is doing its job. Our problem – as if we didn’t already know – is at the back because we have conceded more this term than over the same period in the previous two seasons. The last time we had a points tally of just four from our opening five was in the 04/05 season where we finished 13th on 44 points.
