Mansfield Town and League 2 Statistics 2021-2022

[MTFCMusings]

David Sharpe said last night that the club uses data to help recruitment and that the club was signed up to Stats Bomb

Brilliant that.

Was that your question Darren? Did anyone shout you down that data was garbage as you were asking it?

[Tippy Tappy Football]

I asked a very open question about recruitment and agents Sam because I wanted to make it easy for Nigel and David to talk about these subjects and say anything they thought was interesting to the fans. I did not even mention the word "data" and it was David Sharpe who started talking about data and Stats Bomb.

I couldn't hear Dave and Dan shouting "garbage" because they were in Milton Keynes and Margate.

I did ask whether we could ban a certain agent from the ground (Jake the Snake).

I was still shouting garbage even from Margate

And me from Lincoln. I also shouted about basing player salaries on Football Manager

[Dan]

I think those who believe stuff they see on football manager and stuff like xG are those who watch Eastenders & Corro thinking it’s real life

[MTFCMusings]

I think those who believe stuff they see on football manager and stuff like xG are those who watch Eastenders & Corro thinking it’s real life

That would be David Sharpe and Simon Clough then? And most other elite football clubs

[STAGS FOR LIFE]

That would be David Sharpe and Simon Clough then? And most other elite football clubs

Thought they watched Home and Away

[Tippy Tappy Football]

And me from Lincoln. I also shouted about basing player salaries on Football Manager

Perhaps £2,200 per week for Harry Charsley and £1,700 per week for Richard Nartey was not far off if we have managed to sign Jamie Murphy and Matty Longstaff for less.

Yes I'm sure they all relish seeing the opinion of someone (who's probably never even played the game) at full time as to what xG they think it could've been... Next you'll be telling me Dot Cotton is real as well

[MTFCMusings]

I mean, they’ve literally said they use data:lol: Sharp follows lots of data accounts on twitter. It’s pretty obvious.

[MTFCMusings]

My player of the season so far too.

[bobbystagsfan]

My player of the season so far too.

[Big yella]

A big xG defeat for the Stags against Exeter City 1.5-2.9 which is the largest XG we have conceded this season...but we won!!

And right there you prove what bull it all is.

[MTFCMusings]

Not surprising really given they had four shots from inside the six yard box and another nine from inside the box. They had some very good chances which they didn’t take.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

The xG score was around 1.2-1.2 on 76 minutes but Exeter had lots of chances in the last 20 minutes

Is that the one you were after TTF?

[Tippy Tappy Football]

Thanks Gazza. I can't do the links on my mobile.

[gazza1988]

Thanks Gazza. I can't do the links on my mobile.

Yeah it can be a pain.

I wasn't sure and didn't want to just edit away if that wasn't the one you wanted.
