Title: Record points
Post by: Meanwood Villa on April 13, 2018, 10:59:49 PM: Correct me if you will but I believe we have accumulated the most points in our history this season. What a time to be alive!

Well done to the team.

Can't wait until we do it in the top division.

Blimey Charlie , you Sir are definitely drinking from a half full pint glass. Brummies are often castigated as dour pessimistic creatures.
Well I love your post , and can't help thinking about them precious Man City fans who were crying the other night (not winning the title at home against man ure) . F*cking Tits.

It is, but at least we're starting to make positive new records as opposed to the string of negative ones started by that tosspot Lambert.

Post by: Villa Lew on April 14, 2018, 07:46:55 PM: When we won the title in 81, it was the last season when there was 2 points for a win. If there had of been 3 points for a win, we would have finished on 86 points from 42 played.

Post by: Risso on April 15, 2018, 10:02:19 AM: But it’s meaningless. Converting points to be the same means it isn’t a record total, and even if it was, if we don’t go up, who cares?

Afraid so. Unfortunately for us there are 3 clubs in our league who have bettered it.
