This Season vs Last Season #13

With five league games gone, I'm afraid it's time for the return of This Season vs Last Season lucky number 13. The series was born during the 2009/10 season as dissenting voices towards Martin O'Neill's stewardship grew louder and louder. Lots of comparisons were made to how many points we had at the same stage of the previous season, but comparing the fixtures on a like-for-like, or apples-to-apples, basis revealed that we were often doing better than the previous season despite how it seemed chronologically.
