The difference
« on: April 21, 2012, 03:03:09 PM »
So far its 14 draws this season; and had those draws been converted into Wins or even loses, things this season could have been very, very much different in the current league position.
So what IYO has been the factor that has stopped turning those fourteen draws into wins or even worse!! losses.

the fact that the opposition scored the same amount of goals as us in each of those 14 games has been one of the primary reasons for getting so many draws.

15 draws this season not 14. we will get 4 more and end up drawing  half of our games.

It is quite disheartening when you think that, had we won those 15 drawn games, we would still only be third today.

Would be interesting to see the table had it still been 2pts for a win, 1 for a draw.
Would we still be so concerned?

If it were two points for a win, where would we be in the table?

We haven't looked like winning many of those games.

It thats the case then dont that stat suggest that right at this moment, this club is on a very fine pivot between been a very decent prem outfit, or being regarded as one of the prems also rans this season and next?
