Division One table inaccuracy edit

Latest comment: 4 years ago6 comments4 people in discussion

The Division One table has got Bury finishing ahead of Port Vale, when indeed it was Port Vale who stayed up at Bury's expense. I don't know how to change it myself, but this needs to be corrected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scf1985 (talk • contribs) 13:16, 7 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

I was about to point out exactly the same error. Pretty sure they got the faulty data from this site that doesn't take goal difference into account: https://www.worldfootball.net/schedule/eng-championship-1998-1999-spieltag/46/ JurijFedorov (talk) 14:25, 17 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

It’s because goals scored was used that season, where usually goal difference is used in England. I have just tried to edit this, but it won’t let me for some reason. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me on here will amend this soon Scf1985 (talk) 09:39, 7 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

I think the table is the correct order now (as here, but it still shows a goal difference column rather than a goaled scored one.

@Frietjes: Is there a way of displaying a goals scored column instead of goal difference or goal average? Jts1882 | talk 14:21, 7 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Jts1882, should work now. Frietjes (talk) 15:09, 7 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
