Thats a great stat :)

Here's another. Alloa actually finished with 67 points which is what we got when we won the division in 2002 (they were second then too). This underlines what a good season Alloa actually had this year so for us to win the league by 25 points was remarkable. In a normal season the runners up would be unlikely to reach 67 points and we'd have won it by over 30 points.

Lol going by the shifts your players have put in this year sure he will manage.

That's not fair. McCoist has a very industrious side. I was particularly impressed by how tight they kept things for the first 11 seconds at Tannadice.

Have it on good authority that Robinson won't be playing for QoS next season. Not great news as he's a good keeper, hopefully he can be replaced with a good signing.

 

He's Killie bound ;)

Would be a good move for robbo, he's certainly capable of making the step up.

I like that too :)

why would be go to killie to sit on the bench again? Don't think he will be at killie when they have signed that Spanish keeper from Inverness

Don't see him going back to killie, been there b4 and didn't work out so why be sure it will this time.

Well Done AJ. If it wasn't him then I'd have given it to McCall. Lennon did a job a monkey could do and made hard work of it at that.

Delighted for AJ and well deserved.

Think that`s a bit harsh on Lennon, a man I have no time for but last 16 in Champions League is a pretty decent effort.

Record Watch Update

Presumably the final update to the season records post ( i might do a bit of research into things like clean sheets when I get a chance though!). Today's 1-0 win over Albion Rovers extended out many of the already broken records and of course Nicky Clark's winner ties the club single season scoring record that has stood for 81 years. An amazing achievement. The best defence record and best goal difference are now formally confirmed though it was obvious for a while they'd be coming.

Club Records Already Set:

All time record points total for a season was 67 achieved in the 2001-02 championship season. We finish this season on 92 points, smashing the previous best to smithereens.

Latest First League Defeat in a season. We didn't lose our first league game until December 11th. The previous record was November 9th.

(Tied Record) Most Games Unbeaten from the Start of the Season. We were beaten in our 14th League game which matches the 13 game unbeaten start to 1985/86.

Most wins in a season - 24 in 1961/62. Again, another record smashed. The new record is 29.

Record Unbeaten Run in a Season - 16 games in 1950/51. New record set of 18 games, ended at Stenhousemuir.

Earliest Date for Clinching a League Title - 20th April 2002 was the previous earliest (it was 28th April 1951). This one was clinched on 27th March 2013.

Most points in a season using 2 points for a win - 55 in 85/86 (which was a 39 game season). This season's record equates to 63 despite being three games shorter.

Least defeats in a season - 5 in 1932/33. Best post war is 6 in 1950/51. This season we lost just TWO league games.

(Tied Record) Record Unbeaten Run at Home (League Only) - 18 games. We will go into next season with a chance to beat this.

Least goals conceded in a league season - 31 in 1923/24 but that was a 30 game season. 33 in a 38 game season in 74/75 is probably better. However, this season finishes with just 23 goals conceded.

Best goal difference in a season - +45 in 1961/62. We finish this season with a goal difference of +69.

(Tied Record) Most Goals for an Individual in a Season (All Competitions) - J Rutherford 41 goals, Nicky Clark ties this with 41 goals in 46 games.

And, the one that got away...................

Most goals scored in a season - 99 in 1931/32. Best post war is 94 in 1959/60. We came up just short on this one, finishing the league season with 92 goals. Still an astonishing return in modern football though.

Happy to hear of any corrections in the above existing records? I might have missed something or there may be errors in the source data somewhere.

and the best manager in Scotland .

Always going to be difficult to weigh up managers from different leagues, if you are going to give an overall award.

When you look at the club records set under Magic's watch this season, then you clearly have something exceptional happening.

Thoroughly well deserved. And credit to Sandy Clark and the BoD as well.

Enjoy Magaluf and see you next season (or as many of you as we can hang on to!).
