Hey everyone, despite the amount of Palace blogs/ Palace sites out there to feed you daily updates, news, player ratings and reaction; I thought I'd start my own.

However - this will be a little bit different (and probably not to everyone's tastes).

This blog will focus on Palace from a statistical perspective - looking at the numbers behind Palace's performance as a team as well as a look at individual players. This will be less of a week by week analysis and more trying to see the bigger picture. Stats are used more and more in football these days, but often misused, so I'm going to try to convince as many Palace fans as I can that they can be useful.

Anyway I have probably waffled on enough, please check it out if you fancy. Links to current blogs are below - will hopefully be adding two more this week - 1 looking at the summer transfer business, and 1 looking at the season so far.

Fixed! Thanks.

Part 2 is a bit of a longer read - but tries to explain why there was such a drop off in the second half of the season (partly as we were getting that extra bit of luck in the first half of the season)
