This was a fun piece to research, and I think a useful one, as it shows how York's possession game that brought such success in the National League is translating well to League Two so far, but with some areas to work on. Read the full article here 👉 www.sameoldcity.com/p/data-darli...

Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
🔴 One nice defensive stat is that York have committed the lowest number of fouls per match in the league. Again this might be impacted by York generally having possession so not having much need to commit fouls, but still a positive sign if it means less chance of suspensions.
100
Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
What about York's out of possession work, in particular their pressing? 🔴 #YCFC rank 17th for 'possession won in the final 3rd per match'. Doesn't sound great, but worth keeping in mind that City's opponents don't have much of the ball so there's fewer chances to win it back.
100
Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
Defensively, the picture is more mixed. York's overall xG against is the 4th-best in the league, but... 🔴 City have conceded the joint-most goals from set pieces in the league (5), and from an XG against of just 1.3. Clearly still work to do on tightening up at set pieces.
100
Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
🔴 City also sit in 1st for expected goals (xG) with 13.1. As this is close to the actual number of goals scored (13), it suggests that City's level of scoring should be sustainable as it relies on creating plenty of good chances rather than freakishly good finishing.
100
Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
Of course, possession on its own doesn't mean much unless it leads to chances. But the attacking data is also positive for York. 🔴 #YCFC again league leaders for shots on target per match with 6.3, and also for big chances created (23).
100
Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
🔴 Looking at the player-level data shows just how much of an outlier our passing game is: four of the top five players for for accurate passes per 90 minutes in the *entire division* are York players. Three are midfielders, so this isn't just City playing keep-ball at the back.
100
Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
🔴 City are also well clear at the top for accurate passes per match. Their total of 461 is almost 100 more than next-best Chesterfield, and actually more than double the number of accurate passes per match made by 10 sides in League Two.

Same Old City podcast @sameoldcity.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
In this week's members article, I've taken a deep dive into some early-season data to see how York stack up against their League Two rivals. 🔴 York top the table for possession, with an average of 64.7%. This continues the trend from the National League in 2024/25 & 2025/26.
