    Ok in even simpler terms, it gives an idea of who has the easiest run in.

    (w) = targeted as a winnable game, not predicting an actual win. So the final points are the maximum points that teams can realistically expect to finish on.

    Eg <40 means likely to finish on less than 40 points

    So I based my table on the results. But think that WBA will stay around the position they are now or even go down. But they do have the most amount of games against teams in the lower half the table, so have easier task than say Norwich who have a difficult run games.

    Of course any game is winnable that's what makes it the best spectator sport in the world.

    I wanted it to spark a debate rather than predicting individual results making it more open to debate.

    It still does'nt make sense and that's why the 40 point totals for all teams is achieved.

    I thought it was reasonably simple and interesting premise.

    Then I read posts 2 and onwards. Hmm.....

    In my defence the post has been edited after my initial response and I read through it sloppy :D
