I think what you were being asked was about the table of stats relating to the top clubs playing one another and being reffed by Clattenburg.
You, quite rightly, imagined that "it's much more likely he would referee our higher profile games rather than matches against mid table/bottom half clubs"; well the same logic should apply to un*t*d's respective matches against higher profile clubs (shouldn't it?). Shouldn't their points average against teams at the top inevitably be less as well? But it isn't....
Explain?
Discuss?
I've seen £13 notes which are less dubious
No the original stat I was referring to by PB was: "Our average ppg in all PL games refereed by Clattenburg is 1.5 over the last 5 years, compared to 2.15 in all games."
That's the only stat I said wasn't a smoking gun. In fact I actually said that comparisons between games between the top sides reffed by Clattenburg would be the smoking gun - if indeed there is something sinister going on.
