It may take me a while to absorb this, but in the meantime can we round the target up to 38 points? Cheers North!
Love the stats Northolt, but working on my own system we are on target i.e. 12 points every 10 games = 36 points after 30 games leaving 8 games to get 4 points should give a little room to catch up. Although it will look like we will need it as the last 5 games look daunting.
Have you equated the January Transfer window into this? By my reckoning this will elevate us up 0.385864 points per game over 17 games.
**** me Northy i love a stat too,but i've just had to invite Stephen Hawkin round to help me with all that!
The top 7 are becoming stronger The 4/5 at the bottom are falling away The middle earth needs less points to get to 8th This is current trends and will develop more over next few seasons ... Eventually there will be a defined top ten
Did you see the 'by Harlow on report' bit? He's a stat man, what is peoples problem with having it laid out what we need?
Results turn stats upside down and our team spirit is key hence my worries about us . The margin between 15th and 8th is in effect two good results
I've been working on the 40pts mark but when I ran through the season, like DT I ended half up the league well before the end. So now i'm concentrating on the gap to 18th, at present we have a 6 pt cushion, long may it live. 99% of all statistics are made up!
I don't know what is up with some of you people. It is quite easy when you factor all the possibilities into the equation, look: please log in to view this image QPR will have 47 points at the end of ther season.
