 | Who is your Nemesis? (Hint: probably one of these guys) Posted by |
Pro tip: If your photo is on Facebook (or social media) I will find it and post it, so...
This is Ian (PNE/Kendal), Alon (Tranmere/Shepshed), and Rebuilding Dave (Lewes/Wimbledon). Collectively known as the Evil Empire.
Per a request from Olmec Steve Turner I have updated the Team page History-Team tab.
To get there...
1) Click your logo near the top right (which takes you to your team page
2) Click the History-Team tab
Then SCROLL DOWN
At the bottom you will see the Head to Head records.
Steve suggested I add the Win & and the GD to the page. Click on columm headers to sort.
For example, here is Alon's Tranmere page:
Tranmere ONLY has a losing record against Outlaw Rebuilding Dave.
To be clear, there are 32 teams in the league. Tranmere has a losing record against 1 (ONE) of them. 
Who are the teams you dominate?
Who are the teams you do terrible against?
Let's get those posts going here for all that 5k.

I am under .400% against five teams, a couple of which should not be surprising:
Swansea City 0.392
Tranmere Rovers 0.385
Queens Park Rangers 0.363
Weston-super-Mare AFC 0.337
Northampton Town FC 0.321
I take great pride in having scored 134 goals against Alon.
I'm 14-10-38 against Alon with a -65 GD. This is not surprising AT ALL.
Also not surprising is that all 3 of the Evil Empire fit into my top 5 worst records against.
They are my top 3 as well with an abysmally abysmal .207 vs Tranmers at -78 (!) GD. Men vs boys.
Maybe even worse, we are sub .500 vs our personla nemesus list. This needs to change.
.407 vs Brentford
.429 vs Northampton
.447 vs Plymouth
One more good one, we have always been so tight and competitive with QPR. It shows here 22-16-23 with only 11 GD. More to come, James!
Even closer: Forest are .500 with 12 each wins, draws and losses against one of my personal rivals in Al's Brentford. We do have the better GD at +8
(I didn't start at Forest until season 20 so haven't checked if this 500 is an improvement or not).
I just dont get how I can be part of an evil Empire when I am so patently not evil :)
Turns out Bristol's nemesis is Sheffield Utd. Who needs the Evil Empire!
I think our nemesis is most likely Compo at Northampton Town. No matter what we have tried over the years, we were barely able to scrap together a couple of wins. <Hangs head in utter shame>
Like Roger, Sheffield United seem to cause us issues, closely followed by Lewes.
My computer was being an ass yesterday - I posted here and it's gone, and bid in U2's auction and bids weren't entered
Anyway Lewes are definitely my nemesis with a 200 rating. In fact we are the worst performing league team against them. Off hand I can't remember the rest but Preston and Tranmere are up there as well as Sheffield Utd and Port Vale which might surprise John.
Missed out Lincoln as 3rd worst.
Also I didn't start at Forest until season 20 so don't know if my personal scores are better or worse.
Weston have far too many negative head to heads for my liking. ) teams in fact. Tranmere wth a negative -10 games are the worst. so not surprisingly are my nemesis followed by Lewes (-7), Plymouth (-6), Southend (-5), QPR (-4), PNE (-4) Forest (-2), Sheffield (-1) and Chesterfield (-1). Plymouth have a hoodoo on me recently as not that long ago we were head to head level, but recently I have a hard time against them!
