This shows clean sheets in league one for last season, I think our best keeper was 30th, would the Blackpool keeper be worth a look, they let In 3 yesterday.

I think these stats only tells half the story as a goalie needs a good defence in front of him. Maybe there are statistics on how many shots on target were saved…how many goals conceded…how many keepers mistakes?

I couldn't give a toss about clean sheets. As long as we win then that's all that matters. 

The important matter comes when we fail to keep a clean sheet & need to score at least twice to win.

Thought you loved a golfie.

If you keep a clean sheet you always get at least one point, but you can score in a match and still end up with nothing.

I had been thinking that there’s probably a strong relationship between clean sheets (for & against) and where you end up in the league table but I wanted to work it out for myself…

Last season’s clean sheet differences:

Portsmouth +11
Derby +16
Bolton +10
Peterborough +9
Oxford +3
Barnsley +6
Lincoln +7
Blackpool +3
Stevenage +7
Wigan +8
Wycombe 0
Orient -1
Exeter -5
Northampton -2
Reading +5
Bristol Rovers -5
Charlton -5
Cambridge -7
Shrewsbury -12
Burton -12
Cheltenham -7
Fleetwood -5
Port Vale -9
Carlisle -15


So if you kept 10 or more clean sheets than you allowed last season, that would’ve had you in the top 3 in the league.

So far, Charlton and Stockport are leading the way this season with +2 each.
