How this season page is built
Headline numbers come from filed records: Sportmonks for fixtures and transfers, Wikidata cross-checked manager tenure. The narrative review, where present, is freelance work commissioned through DragonFC.
Match deep-dives sit alongside the auto-generated match reports on each fixture page. Where you see "Deep dive" we paid a writer to go deeper than what a model can produce from the stats alone.
