...has a league been won by the team scoring the fewest goals!

In 1998 AIK won the Swedish title, despite scoring 25 goals in 26 games:

Aduana Stars romped to the Ghanaian championship in 2009-10, despite scoring only 19 goals in their 30 games – winning the title thanks to their head-to-head record against Ashanti Gold (rather predictably the Stars won one of their meetings 1-0, while the other was a 0-0 draw):

You have to much time in your hands
If your not busy I’ve got a front room that needs decorating while I watch the cricket tomorrow 😜 UTM

They are fascinating stats though, fair play to the original poster.

In terms of the major leagues, AC Milan won the league in 93-94 (when Italian football was the best in the world) scored 36 goals in 34 games. They only conceded 15 times.

Even more impressive when you consider that they were up against both Arsenal and Chelsea

I didn't research this stuff, I copied and pasted from the Guardian newspsper. Took about 5 minutes!

However, you're quite right about having too much time on my hands...consequence of old age.
When you're young you have lots of energy and little time.
When you're old you have little energy and lots of spare time.
Sad but true...
