There is nothing to agree or disagree with. After 18 games we have picked up 20 points. Selecting a section of 10 games is useless as the level of difficulty during that 10 games may not be representative of the season - which it isnt.

We can only go on what we know and after playing everyone once (apart from 1 team) we are on course for a mid 40 point finish again. You are heading for mid thirties.

So form tables are useless then?
Why not end the season now, you know where we all finish. :laughing6: :laughing6:

Form tables show how well you have done over the last 5 games usually. Im not sure how you think that has a representation of a 38 game season though.

It will be a mid 40 finish. If i was 43, id say i was in my mid 40's.

He has made the mistake of looking at our last 10 and then appying that to 38 games even though we have already played an initial 8 where out points tally exceeded what he said. His 10 game theory can only work on future games, not games already played - hence the massive flaw in his thoery.

He makes it up as he goes along Chuckles.
He makes it fit his agenda.
If the jacks have a decent run he will be on about, form this, form that.
He can only get his projected outcome from past results. (mid 40's)
However, due to European fateague and recent injuries to their top scorer and others, recent form suggests otherwise.
Best thing to do is wait and see. ;)

There is no agenda. Im talking complete and utter sense.

It makes no sense to predict the future 20 match results on what you know from the last 10 when half of those teams arent covered by your initial prediction. So in other words you are taking the results of matches against Man City and Chelsea and deciding that the same resut would happen against the like of Crystal Palace. You also, took the last 10 games and applied that for our first 8 games that we already played and amassed 10 points from... Which according to your theory only gave us 7 points - instantly making your end prediction incorrect before it even starts.

By doing it over the 18 games so far it pretty much covers matches against every team in the league - not just 10 of them. :thumbright:
