How many points will be needed to win the league? (74 GD)

[Hayley Croppers chopper]

My point was that no sensible fan should think the rags were a better attacking team than us because the stats say they have better goals for data. As always stats should be studied in context.

Remember, the number is 1 point more than the #2 team gets, not where we will end up!

As with the “who will win the league” vote, I’m not changing anything!

Guaranteed to finish above Burnley, I will be ticking off the other Clubs as we leave them in our wake.

The way things are going we will only need the same points as the #2 team.

Our two highest scores have been 5 goals whereas for the Rags it was 9 and 6.

If you remove those results we have scored 46 goals in 25 games, the Rags have 38 from 24.

I know who I think is the better attacking team.

stop it your sounding like a dipper :)

dont give a shit if we win every game 1-0 points not goals

7 wins and a draw to win it. I reckon 6 wins will nick it starting with a win against United!

United still have to play Leicester, Liverpool, Spurs and Aston Villa so they will drop points there as well

Liverpool can now only get 79 points max. Assuming they win all their games and finish top 4 it is possible that 2nd and 3rd place will not make it to 80 points even!

I honestly doubt 2nd and 3rd place will get to 75 points. It would require both United and Leicester going on their best run of form all season and maintaining that level for 12 games (whilst simultaneously playing cup games and handling an injury crisis).

Over 70 points would guarantee a top 4 place this season IMO.

It's done but I think 5 more wins will do it, we'll easily get more than that though.

Yeah nobody else is getting anywhere near 80 points, especially given some of the fixtures yet to be played out

 

[Chris in London]

Very good chance we will have the league won before the month is out

Best way to look at a league table, that

Assuming they win tonight, if we beat them on Sunday 5 more wins will be enough.

Not sure of that, think vermin only play 3 times in the league during March and us only 3 more times now, would need them to really fcuk up in March.

Im going for Leeds at home mid April.

I have just noticed that we are 22pts clear of the dippers!. I had to use a calculator to get it correct:-D

Yep more chance of West Brom getting out of the shit than United or Leicester catching us.

And the same gap as Sheff U getting out of trouble.
