The 100/104 goal chase

[Deleted member 81382]

In terms of how this side goes down in history, hitting 100 points would be the biggest achievement. It's a very definable landmark that has never been done before and it's hard to imagine anyone will do it again.

We can still afford to draw one so it's looking good.

100th goal - Yaya

Monies withdrawn from my betting account. £210 towards my seasoncard.

 

[wagonman]

so if we secure 100 points or more we will be known as the Centurions

Are Chelsea known as the "Centurions"?

That would be a bit of a misnomer when they only got 95 points.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

If we get to a 100 points we should fuck off this Citizens stuff however we spell it and use Centurions instead.

Close.

Their nickname is The Pensioners.

If the Centurions accolade is on for our trip to Southampton, shall we take a few thousand dressed like this -

I can't go because I live on the other side of the world now but you guys definitely should. It'd be a right laugh

Slightly off topic, but anyone know what a +0 handicap means on league winners?

Ah!

A good point, very well made...

Thanks.

All teams will have started with a +x Whatever the x is gets added to the total points so if City was +2 and get 102 points then they have 104, if burnley had +50 and get 55 they would be on 105 and above city.

Fuck me, this is how the league will be decided in the future. Expect the Rags and Dippers to start on +70 each season.....

Probably best to save it for the first game next season, after we make 100 points (assuming we do). I'd hate to see the pictures of legions of dejected looking Roman soldiers after the game if we slip up!

I certainly am. Thanks

 

[SebastianBlue]

I certainly am. Thanks

To be fair, it’s probably expecting too much of the Roman legion to work out how to embed a photo on here. ;-)

Imagine the conflicting imagery with the centurions and the inflatable bananas, as well.
