A thread for all things useless stats. You know the ones commentators recite in front of a mirror before blurting out like they are imparting an original thought or critical insight, such as “MK Dons have failed to beat Manchester United since 2014 and have never won a league game home or away against Manchester’s Red Devils”

I shall start…

MK Dons have scored the most goals across the top 4 tiers of English football in the opening 30 minutes of games this season (29 goals).

The worst season Dons have ever had at SMK in attendances is just over 189,000 (2018/19 League Two season).

Current total is around 149,000, with only three home games to go.

Damn. That might mean we'll have a play off semi to add 10k onto the seasons crowd total

As Pete W once said "do I not like playoffs." My blood-sausage on the other hand swears by them.

Not necessarily Dons related but something along the lines of "and between the five of them they have a combined age of 450 years". They might as well say "between the five of them they have a combined height of 29 feet and 2 inches".

Motson was the God of this sort of bollocks.

"This is the first time that a team with blue tops and yellow socks have made it to the quarter finals of the bricklayers supplies cup...".

I don't miss him.

I only met him once (at Stadium MK), he was friendly and down to earth.

I thought this was another thread about bloody XG or all that "94% chance of playoffs" nonsense!
