Don’t know if many are interested, but there is a whole host of stats available nowadays so I thought I’d post a few here.
Ben Garner’s @Official_STFC boast the highest average possession (57.9%) in @SkyBetLeagueTwo as well as the best pass completion rate (80.9%).
Meanwhile, the Robins have won the fewest aerial duels per game (15) in the fourth tier #STFC
Entrances into opponent's box (LG2: 2021/22) 📥⤵️
85 - Mansfield 78 - Salford 77 - Bradford 71 - Forest Green 69 - Rochdale 57 - Carlisle 56 - Port Vale 56 - Walsall 53 - Swindon 53 - Barrow
Here’s a surprising one
League Two 2021/22 Passes Completed:
1. Dion Conroy - 257 2. Jason Lowe - 249 3. Aaron Morley - 226 4. Stephen McLaughlin - 217 5. Matty Lund - 212

I don't like that Mansfield stat Then again they have played Bristol 'wooden spoon' Rovers already. Had a bit of bants with a gas head at the depot yesterday. I told him that Barton should stop hitting his missus and get their forwards hitting the net instead otherwise they’ll be National League next season. He did say they were in for a torrid time but was confident they’d finish above the drop but below half way. On current form they’re going down but I think he’s right. I also told how we laughed at their walk fest over the PPP and TBF he said that was a fair summary of how he saw it but thought there were better options for them to get in but didn’t elaborate who. In any case I didn’t have that much time to gas with the gas so left it there, he is a decent level headed young chap though and nowhere near a thug.

Be interesting to see the breakdown of how Mansfield enter the opposition box - particular as we’ve won the fewest aerial duals.
If they are pumping it in high - either centrally or from outwide they could cause us problems.
However, I’m guessing the ‘aerial duals’ stat is a number rather than a percentage? So potentially we aren’t winning aerial duals because we are having so much possession.
Infact - just because we’ve won the fewest aerial duals in total doesn’t even mean we have a poor percentage of winning those aerial duals...

The Conroy stat isn't really so surprising Aud, when Town tend to play the ball out from the back regularly.
Just from that it hints toward the player/s is/are playing to some form of coherent instruction or for better words "game plan"; unlike last season when Johnny Alcoholic took the reins.
Town's CBs should have a high pass completion rate (if good at passing) compared to teams that play hoofball obviously. It also might nod towards the Town defence allowing teams to create more chances though. Thankfully at present those attacks are not resulting in many goals conceded - so by design, Conroy and any other defenders are having more opportunities to pass the ball.
It would be interesting to know Towns number of goal kicks to date too. It should correlate fairly nicely with the Conroy passing stat.

This can be used to passing and possession equally. Luckily in L2 they don't have the finishing quality of the players in L1 or it could be a different story as they tend to punish mistakes far more often, long may it continue.

Ain’t that the truth. Wonder how we’d get on in L1 playing as we do.
