Broadly speaking, yes, many of them are completely insufferable (Carl Anka anyone? A bigger fraud than Ten Haag), but they have a lot of decent people too.

you are probably right. I only ever seem to catch the helmets. Probably like every work place.

Also that JJ Bull things shows how stats like that are lovely to look at but mean f**k all.

They do mean something, but theres an error rate either way. 

Like xG for strikers, the average striker will generally perform sustainably 20% either side of it (based on ~5yrs of worth of data i fucked about with once). There will be a similar rate for clubs in terms of it too id imagine, but ive not looked into it.

A lot of folk think overperformance = unsustainable and expect a dip, and constantly claim someone like Livingston are "lucky" to end up as high up the table as they do.

I like your posts, I love your wee graphs when called upon. You won't change my mind however.

On another note thank you @thisGRAEMEfor a wonderful Patreon episode. It has been about 10 days since I basked in those two games in some form so it was well overdue to enjoy the retelling. 

Might I suggest some sort of follow up with the Bowman / Cardoso incident in the Moult semi final and the fallout culminating with Hartley laughing and then bulleting in a last minute equaliser against them. In short, can you just hijack this series into a f**k rangers series? Thanks in advance.

Elaborate?

It was broadly covered whenever he signed.
