Longer than that. I believe the last time we beat a team by that kind of margin (actually by 7 goals) in a league game was in 1935!
Hang on, strictly speaking, we won by a margin of five goals last night

Love that Jimbo.

What is striking for me is Andresson. Tis used to make a massive thing of keepers kicking to the touchline, so much so that Jonah would often send the ball into the stand to much derision. All of the big-mans stuff is straight down the middle.

Liking how far Josh Key gets forward and how much of the pitch Collins and Taylor cover. Good to see Ajose earning his money again :)

At the risk of asking a stupid question, assuming this is done manually, how?!

Mmm.. the margin was only 5 goals and I can remember off the top of my head two bigger league wins than that - both of which I saw and I'm not *that* old.

The 7-1 v Barrow 1972 mentioned earlier in this thread. And the 6-0 demolition of Swansea in 1969.

Nabbed it off Twitter, pal, so couldn't tell you! I too, would like to know.

I believe the players have trackers fitted in their shirts which logs their movement.

https://wyscout.com/ and https://www.optasports.com/services/data-feeds/ provide near real-time event tracking, although these are paid for services. I presume these guys on twitter pay an annual sub for access to the data...

Yeah, realised that. Like you, I've seen them on Twitter and find them interesting. Moreover, I'm not doubting their accuracy, I'm just intrigued how they're arrived at.
