Never try and do stats in haste (corrections)

Apologies - have had a bit of a mare but the correct record is:

P28 W4 D5 L19

and three of those draws were without Wes starting. On all other occasions we got points he started. Of the losses he started 8 and did not start 11.

Wes Starting P14 W4 D2 L8 Points 14 PPG 1
Wes Not starting P14 W0 D3 L11 Points 3 PPG 0.2

As i have said, the tactic of not starting Wes against the big teams because it makes us more likely to get a good result is in my view completely flawed.

        But Arsenal and Man Utd use differing tactics don't they? (NCFC) - keith spanky, Apr 20, 13:11:14
        
        I've not said that we only win with him in the team but (NCFC) - Jim, Apr 20, 13:34:01

    - no, he's saying those losses skew the stats (NCFC) - CWC, Apr 20, 11:49:58

        Wes did not play v Spurs at home this season (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Apr 20, 12:53:18
