Calling MLG to explain the butterfly effect .....

Ungrateful buggers. I'm certainly not a fan of Brenda, but I'd happily take a Cup win followed by a humiliating exit the following year.

No thanks. I want the crappiest possible teams going up each year, to occupy the bottom three the following year. Rinse and repeat.

That's true. But we probably wouldn't have needed extra time if he'd hadn't made 10 changes and started with bloody Walcott, Long and AArmstrong up front, and 3rd/4th/5th choices at the back. Some players rested for sure, but not to that extent. Also, we were very, very lucky not to lose.

Walcott being involved even once is one times too often.

Oh come on, 39 points and a decent goal difference should be enough.

I'm not sure about that.

Had a very good game today. Well done Willy!

Remind me, who scored our goals? The subs, who came on to replace the dross who should never have been in the starting line up.

Poch would be proud of that line up.

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's hard to know what to say, but you will be missed by many here.

I heard the Skates borrowed a fiver and tried, but alas didn't win.

Yes, this thread is certainly losing its draw.

Not the skates I'm afraid: their incredible last gasp draw at SMS, which they celebrate annually, saved them from the drop that season, and also consigned us to another year in the Championship.

I wouldn't trust Levy/Spurs as far as I could throw them.

We need a number, please.

Yes, but how many from draws? 😜

1976? That year rings a bell.

See my post above. As long as the odds of a draw are greater than zero (spoiler alert: it is!) then the expected points are above 3. But unless we have the draw odds we don't know how much more.

Ok, as a mathematician let me step in here. What's missing in the OP's post is the odds of drawing (unless the assumption was that it's 0% for all games, which is, err, wrong). So suppose over 10 matches against the big boys we have 10% of winning each match, and let's say (for example) 20% chance of drawing, then our expected points from each match is 10% of 3 points + 20% of 1 point + 70% of 0 points = 0.3 + 0.2 + 0 = 0.5 points. So over those 10 matches we'd predict 0.5 X 10 = 5 points. <Ducks for cover>

MLG - your new avatar? Come on, you know it makes sense.

You mean until the FA cup final?

Salisu ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Or dropped to make room for teacher's pet Walcott?
