Below is a screenshot of the main menu screen for obtaining current standings.
The topmost dropdown menu can be used to specify teams for which we wish to obtain current standings.
Multiple teams can be selected by holding the "Ctrl" key while making selections.
There is another dropdown menu underneath that can be used to specify the leagues for which we wish to obtain current standings.
Multiple leagues can be selected by holding the "Ctrl" key while making selections.
You can also filter current standings by league positions (overall, home and/or away), goals scored, goals against, etc.
The middle of the current standings screen contains a grid of drop-down menus and text boxes.
The drop down menus can be used to select either >,<, or =. The text boxes can be filled with
numeric values. By default, the text boxes contain -1. Numeric values can be entered in the text boxes.
In general:
- If a row title contains "(home)" after it, this filter applies to statistics applying to the teams home league games.
- If a row title contains "(away)" after it, this filter applies to statistics applying to the teams away league games.
- If a row title contains "(overall)" or "(total)" after it, this filter applies to statistics applying to the teams home and away league games.
- The filters under the "Start of season" column header apply to statistics based on all the games the team has
played since the beginning of the season.
- The filters under the "Last 5 matches" column header apply to the teams previous 5 league games. *
- The filters under the "Last 10 matches" column header apply to the teams previous 10 league games. *
- The filters under the "Last 20 matches" column header apply to the teams previous 20 league games. *
* These filters wrap around seasons. For example, the stats for "Last 10 matches" for a team on their first game of a season will
be based upon the last 10 games of the previous season.
In order to determine what a particular pair of dropdown list/text box represents, cross-reference
it with the row and column titles. For example, the dropdown list/text box at the intersection of
the two lines in the diagram below is used to specify filters based on the average points
gained per match by a team in their home matches since the beginning of the season.
Searches can be performed on current standings using any of the filters mentioned above. For example, let us assume we want to find all teams which are in a position
higher than 5th in their league, and which have scored on average more than 2 goals per game
over their last 5 home games. We first set the dropdown menu and text box beside "League Position (overall)"
to "<" and "5", and then set the dropdown menu and text box beside the "Average goals for (at home)", "over the Last 5 matches"
filter to ">" and "2". These operations are circled in red in the screenshot below.
Press the "Submit Query" button, and all the teams in the database who are currently in a position higher than fifth in their league, and who
have scored on average more than 2 goals per game over their last home five games are displayed.
The results of the search are displayed in a screen similar to the
following:
If you want to see more statistics for the teams who met your criteria, you can select the appropriate
checkbox from the checkbox grid on the left hand side of the screen. For example, let's assume that
in addition to the information displayed in the screenshot above, we wish to see the overall league
position over the last 10 games for these teams. We click on the League position (overall) 10 matches checkbox,
and press the refresh button (these operations are circled in red in the screenshot below)...
This will result in the screen below, which has the additional requested information.
The results can be sorted by clicking on the results table headings. For example, if we want to sort the results
by the overall team position over the last 10 matches, we click on the "Team position (overall) 10 matches"
heading...
...and the results will be sorted by this the overall team position for the last 10 matches. The sort
alternates between ascending and descending.
