    I think the stats lads call it ‘reversion or regression to the mean’.

    Most football teams can show a month or a few matches of good form and win 3 or 4 on the bounce but will then go back to more ‘normal’ form ie winning a few, drawing a few and losing a few

A downward trend is usually inevitable. It's a bit like the current form table, which isn't so much 'current form' as 'recent past form'.

    Burch was only manager of the week, not sure if that has a similar curse! May only be from good form of one game.
