Man of the match (season to date)

[Pilgrim Dan]

I did this last season. Basically totting up the number of votes (Leagues games) and number of MotM awards based on the closed p@soti poll, so I hope the mods don't mind me resurrecting again this season?

Scarr, Randell and Coops were our 3 stand outs last season as shown below



and here is the current season to date (obviously after only 1 game)

4 games in update. Interestingly Houghton has already beaten his total number of votes for the whole of last season

Thanks Dan. Always interesting.

Just a thought - is there any noticable difference in the number of votes for e.g. home and away games that might skew the results? If so, is there a way to normalise the data to get a fairer reflection?

Not really something I've thought about or understand the relevance of tbh. Last years split was roughly 40% of votes for away games and 60% for home but there is no saying of the "voters" how many were even at the game

Sure. Was just thinking if the home games were getting 500 votes and the away 100, then a good performance in a home game might skew it. 60/40 probably not worth worrying over. Don't mind me.

That does make sense, but with it being 60/40 I guess the skew isn't too much

Never thought about that but it is a good point Lobster. A score based on percentage of the vote each game would probably be a better metric, then it makes no difference if 1000 or 100 people vote from one game to the next.

Update after the last few games. So far 8 games played, 8 different MotM's

Nice work Dan!
Looking at last seasons end point Pie chart, I wonder if another bar chart for % of MOMs would be easier to read - ok for now, but once there 15-20 segments makes it a bit difficult to read - especially on a phone.

But, lovely work mate 👍

Update after the Hull and Millwall games

 

[JannerinCardiff]

Cannot believe that Hardie has so little.??

I certainly think his performances have deserve higher amount of votes, esp considering he's the joint highest in the whole division for goal contributions this season so far (8 in 10 matches)

 

[Pilgrim Dan]

We have a new leader. Updated figures up to and including the Ipswich game

 

[IJN]

Like your work Dan. 👏

 

[Pilgrim Dan]

Another new leader as we head into this international break

 

[Pilgrim Dan]

Update on MotM votes including the games against SUnderland, Coventry and Stoke
