MILESTONE POINTS
These are the number of games that it took us to get some milestone points in the league, and the game in which we did it. It's a cumulative count of all the points we've won in the league right up to and including our current grand total of 5762 points.This should probably be compared to the other league teams totals to put it in perspective, so I'll see what I can do.
One interesting thing is that we used to average almost exactly 1 point per game up until 1980-81 when the number of points for a win went up from 2 to 3 which was pretty much exactly as we scored our 3000th point.
