Dean Shiels 2011/12 - 12 goals
Anthony Stokes 2011/12 - 12 goals
Samaras well em no comment!
Playing in a duff team and he still scores the same amount as one of Celtics top strikers and lots more than the bearded Euro 2012 player!
Quick player, good eye (no pun intended) for goal and will score for fun in that league. Compare him £ for £ to what Samaras is earning then I'd argue its not that bad however I question where the noney is coming from and the accuracy of the reported figure!
Craw,from time to time you really do come up with some brilliant stuff that keeps me chortling throughout the day.
Keep them coming,everyone loves a laugh to keep the day going.:lol:

Been enjoying some of the stuff on this thread but Dodger you have me confused on this one.
Can you explain why it's comedy gold if the stats are what they are?
I am interested purely from an analytical sense as I don't get where you are coming from.

Just didn't want to disappoint you.
I am hearing that SPL and SFL have made a deal regards TV rights and licence will now be issued

Anybody can post stats on strikers
James Beattie, Francis Jeffers.........
Will I find any more?
As for Dean Shields, go tell me how many more games than Stokes he played then come back and tell me the stats.

That's the bit I'm trying to understand Martin, stats are great things, BUT they can be made to sit up and dance to your tune very easily.
Man, I am an analysis geek!

Spot on Greig.
People can still shoot in the 90's and have 25-30 putts, doesn't make them a good putter though.

Stats can make golfers like StuartD sound half decent.
The fact a comparison is being drawn between the 3 players in question is what is making me laugh....it's like comparing Homer with Nick Dougherty and Marc Warren.

Yes, but why is that the case?
Ok so my view is, the market place is the same (playing in the SPL - they play the same teams), the functionality is the same (each team starts the game with 11 players) and the repeatability is the same (they play the same number of games (league) spread over varying days).
So, what variation do we need to take in to consideration to create a null hypothesis that each player is of equal quality (the bit you want to disprove) that would create that laughter in comparison?

Jeeeez Greig.....deep stuff.
If Rooney played all year and scored twice and Shola played all year and scored 20 would that make Shola a better player than Rooney?
Would it hell as like.
There,you have yer answer.

Thanks. Is there not a case for weighted scaling though (i.e if Rooney played in a top class United squad and only scored twice and Shola played in a mediocre Newcastle squad but scored 20 then there could be a case for him to be labelled a better player as they play against the same opposition teams) but I think Rooney would be on his bike if that was the case, what do you think that would do to his market value?
This stuff just interests me from a data perspective. Sorry

All I will say is that if Shola scored 20 in a season I would run naked from Berwick to the Toon and back.:whoo:

Then all we can do is pray for an uncharacteristic barren spell from such a prolific Marksman Dodger... :thup:
Yes,I would urge everyone to pray tonight!!:rofl:
