Not an exact like for like timescale but there's a limit to how much time I'm prepared to give to this.
Since we're being a bit geeky, those timescales are in fact probably (I couldn't say definitely as I don't have the stat-age) going to distort the final outcome significantly. 2 obvious reasons for this spring tro mind:
1) The period from 96-98, included in the "without" stats but not the "with" numbers, were probably, I reckon, a period of greater success for the Bulls than the last 2/3 years, which will mean they are likely to bost that win percentage a bit.
2) Particularly in the last few years, Mr Ganson has been likely to be in charge of big games, which will tend to be against the top teams, in other words, teams to whom Bradford are more likely to lose.
Just a thought.
