Thought for a laff I'd have a look at the results 100 years ago ( i was doing some historical research about the 1929 crash for something I'm writing)
Hope your writing is more accurate than your dating :icon_bigg

Also interested in how doing research about the crash was a reason to look for old league tables, did Galbraith write a book called "The Great Crash And 1911/1912 In English Football"?

on 31 May 1929 - The General election returned ahung parliament.The Liberals determined who had power. As I said, nothing much changes!
How did goal average work? Was it an average of goals conceded or scored or what?
I still think of the expression 'goal average' as the terminology. I think that tells me something! although I do realise that its 'goal difference'. 'Goal average' was seen to favour a defensive mentality - 'goal difference' seen as more positive, Anyway since the state education system collapsed hardly anyone today would be capable of working out 'goal average' even with a calculator.

The end part is baseless shit.
Some might think that your post tends to confirm my point - I couldn't possibly comment.
When did that happen?
You are right, I had to work out an average to post it.
Over 50 0r so years.
Some might say that this post proves it happened before your generation. I couldn't possibly comment.
