Yes 'a part'. As Nev said so do the other team, plus other factors. So you don't control the whole 10%. You have 'some' influence in 10% of the games. That doesn't give you 10% influence.
He actually said we "play" 10 percent. Given that we play 10 percent of the games (the word influence was then brought in to muddy the waters), it's clear this is true.
Really exciting league this year, nice that we are gonna play a big part the original part was - gonna play a part. To which he said, we’ll play a part, 10%. He didn’t actually bring up 10% influence,l. He is correct in that you will play in 10% of the league.
Oh come on, it's still fun to wind up a teacher and make him doubt himself. You and Haslam are killjoys.
No I'm not. His original assertion was in response to someone saying we are going to play a big part in the league this year. He said "we will play a small part - 10% to be exact." We will play in 10% of the games, but we won't play a 10% part in the league. We will play just under a 5% part in the league by the time you take into account the opposition and officials. The whole of the participation in the league will add up to 100%. We will play our part in that.
So is DPP being supported by someone from Brighton and someone from New Brighton? Think you should both move to Not Very Brighton!
Just one last bite, because DPP is a teacher and all that... Using the same logic, if every team plays 10% part (20 teams × 10 = 200%) then surely there are 760 games, because 20 teams each playing 38 times isn't = 380. Come on guys, back me here. DPP out! Yes, yes, I know, but just have some.fun, it's not like we.are.signing anyone or Anything exciting.
