Over 212 matches (Aug 2001 – May 2009), Clive Penton drew 67 where the draw model expected 59.5 from those particular fixtures — about 7 more, or 1.1 standard errors, a gap most teams show over a stretch this long.

As unusual as a coin landing the same way 2 times running. A flat league average would have expected 57.7 instead — "more draws than the league" and "more draws than these fixtures deserved" are different claims. These matches were part of the model's own training set, so its chances were fitted already knowing the results.
