What am I looking at?
- Individual refs: stats for one official across all Stoke City games they worked, even with different partners.
- Team baseline: the Stoke City went 18-23-35 (23.7%) across this sample. Ref win rates show how they compare to that team average.
- Whistle differential: who gets called more. A positive number means opponents are whistled more often than the Stoke City.
