A question to Gary James regarding goal difference

[lancs blue]

A couple more +10 swings - the other 6-1 win at the swamp, Jan 23rd 1926 and City's 5-0 win there on Feb 12th 1955.

Don’t know if it’s a wind up, but ours after the game was 5 goals better, theirs 5 worse, so 10.

It looks better if we say:

City +5
Rags -5

Bloody hell there's some budding Alan Turings out there.....

 

[Gary James]

Is this our highest +goal difference (10) on a match day weekend, between City and the Rags ?

Great question. Not worked it out but quickly checked days when we achieved record scores or they achieved record defeats. Frustratingly the highest difference when they’ve played on same day in 9 doing it that way. On the derby day scores.... don’t forget there have been 5-0 scores too (as well as the 2 6-1s), so a diff of ten works if we go off the goal diff changes for each team before and after the game.

Nice one, Maybe my original question should have added "excluding when we played the Rag t*@ts"
