We celebrate when its mathatically ours
And, despite the efforts of the derail crew, the mathematics of it was what this thread was meant to be about so -foregone conclusion though it may be, 85% is correct. <ok>
Although, if one wants to be a true pedant (heaven forfend) we could say that we aren't part of the calculation as we can't catch up with ourselves. So it's more like 89. something or other%
But I wouldn't say that.

He never said catch us though, he's said 85% can't win the league <whistle>

Each team is 5% (100/20=5). So techincally only 15% can win the title this season, 85% can't.

I sit corrected.
Although.......
The thread is about listing who can't catch us, [HASHTAG]#readthetitle[/HASHTAG] not about who can win the league, and there are only 19 teams qualifying for that distinction.
In the first part of my reply to Roger, I stated that he was correct, the second part was an observation regarding the strict meaning of the thread. :emoticon-0172-mooni

Roughly 89.6% then

Reduced to 19 teams, each team is worth 5.2% (roughly)
