We made history yesterday

[MattyP]

Apologies if already posted, but we made history yesterday.

Apparently we're the first to concede 1,000 goals in the Premier League.

Not in one game, obviously, but since the Premier League started.

Hopefully some better history will be written before the season ends.

there are only 7 teams that have played in every season of the Premiership, so we are the worst of the best in terms of defence.

We have already passed the 1000 goal that only 4 other teams had done before us.

I wonder how many of those 1000 also shouldn't have counted :grin: Probably a good 80 id estimate.

 

[Audere]

It would only be 890 if Gomes hadn't have thrown it into his net 110 times

 

[hellava_tough]

To concede 1000 goals in a match, you'd need to concede 5.4 goals a second

Interesting stat.....perhaps not

basically a goal from each kick off
