Frequently Asked Questions

Which Matches Are Included?

  • League matches only, from the 1999–2000 season onwards. Play-offs, the FA Cup, the EFL Cup and the EFL Trophy are not included.

What Does PPG Mean?

  • Points per game: league points divided by matches played. It lets seasons of different lengths be compared, and home and away form be set side by side.

Why Was 2019–20 Decided on Points per Game?

  • The season was stopped in March 2020 because of COVID-19, with clubs having played 36 or 37 matches. The final table was decided on points per game, which is why Cheltenham Town finished fourth with fewer points than Exeter City below them.

Do the Tables Include Points Deductions?

  • Yes. Each season's table takes off any points deducted from a club that season, and the deduction is shown in the table.
