    It seems that england are landing an extra eurpopean spot from the fair league with fulham favourites to get it.

    I had a quick look at the table (not expecting us to be doing great but still not that bad)

    Can anyone tell me how they came up with these ratings??? some seem very strange!

    Think its based on cards revieved and the like, so with Perch and Tiote in our aquad we never had a chance :D

    Also there was a point at the start of the season where Barton was getting booked for anything really.

    I thought it was just based on red and yellow cards, but what are all the points for 'positive play' etc. based on.

    Just another FA scheme to make the top teams seem better and to humiliate us.

    It doesn't even make any sense.

    In the red/yellow column, you get 3 points for a red and 1 point for a yellow. But the team with the highest average score wins, so that means your score will be higher if you get more yellows and reds.

    Am I missing something here?

    "P/P = Positive Play - Maximum 10 pts per Match
    R/O = Respect Towards Opponent - Maximum 7 pts per Match
    R/R = Respect Towards Referee - Maximum 7 pts per Match
    B/O = Behaviour of Officials"

    Sorry, but this is all opinion! Positive play? What the **** does that even mean? Respect towards referee/opponent? Again: opinion. Behaviour of officials? As in the ref? How does the ref's performance give them the right to mark us up or down?

    Those two pretty much explain it, Nolan and Barton cost us 13 points per game. I don't blame them though, we've had endless **** off the FA and referees all season. **** them, I really couldn't give a toss about the fair play league. If they did it properly Wolves and Man City would be at the bottom for employing ****s like Karl Henry and De Jong.

    The fact that we have Barton hinders us. If we did sell him next season we'd win that thing.

    I fail to see how Chelsea are top, when they have that in there and John Terry in the team

    Its the behaviour of officials that i dont understand, surely this is the managers/coaches etc.....

    Hugton / Pardew dont really do anything wrong but the likes of Ferguson have been banned and are still better in the ratings?
