Well, after last nights performance shooting up the shots, I've revised some stats. This time, I have excluded the early part of the season - which is up to our last defeat of the season against Stevenage on 15th Oct 05. we have played 18 Conference games since then

These are how the numbers turn out: (games played in brackets)

Goals Daytime Kick off (12 ) Evening Kick off (6)

For 22 16

Against 9 4

Goal diff. +13 +12

Average For (per game) 1.83 2.66

Average Against 0.75 0.66

For/Against ratio 2.44 :1 4:1

I don't want to bore everyone with statistical concepts and I'm sure that some of you may say that this is no more than a statistical fluke; but nevertheless, the numbers quite clearly indicate that we have do substancially better in games beginning under lights. No,I do not have an explanation.
