[edit] How much is enough

How many top scorers and highest attendances should be in this article? A top ten of both perhaps? --Squilibob 14:43, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Top ten should be enough - we are now getting into enough games played that there won't be a huge number of people tied on a single position in the list. May be an idea to keep some of the names outside the top ten in the list, and keep the figures up to date, but comment them out, so when names enter or exit the list it is easy to update. -- Chuq 00:24, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone have a list of top 15 or 20 scorers so we can update the table? -- Batobatobato 07:40, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Penalty shootout wins

It's a FIFA convention in official records to count a match that goes to a penalty shootout as a draw for both teams... should we use it here in the all time finals table? – AlbinoMonkey ^(Talk) 01:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't see why not. I think the stats should be in accordance with FIFA conventions. Batobatobato 11:05, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Anyone else agree/disagree? Batobatobato 12:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Highest-scoring rounds?

Wanderer 01:53, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm interested in there being a section on the rounds with the highest scores. For instance, Round 10 set this season's record with 18 goals scored, eclipsing 15 in round 8. I suspect that 18 might be a league record number of goals scored in a round.

I mention this as some people measure the 'entertainment value' of a league by the goals scored - comparing it with say the EPL, Serie A, Bundesliga etc.

[edit] All Time Ladder

The seven founding teams that are still active have all played 64 matches (by adding up Wins, Losses, and Draws) according to that table. There are only 21 rounds per season, meaning that each time can have only played 63 matches. Is this table just slightly out-of-date and including pre-season matches, or has someone added a round twice?Morstar (talk) 04:28, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
