Ah but it could be the start of one of those weird numbers series, sort of 10, 9, 8 etc

 

Isn't there a book about that

how is it relevant how we did on the opening day of the season in 2007, 2006, 2005...1991,1990,1989?

 

the team is new(many of them not alive 20 years ago), the management is new etc etc

 

why do these records matter to some forum users and the media?
