Title or double century? 07:18 - May 6 with 2521 viewsEiffel78

The football gods offer you a choice. Either Town can win comfortably at Fleetwood, breaking the 100 goals & 100 points barrier, but Plymouth get an injury time winner to take the title, or Plymouth lose 1-0 but Town are frustrated and draw 0-0, so we take the title but end on 99 goals and 98 points. Which do you go for?

Double century

Either, really. Tho the odds of that latter scenario happening are vanishingly slim. Put money on it and be set up for life (if they pay out).

We have drawn 0-0 once in 45 games.

Plymouth have lost 5 out 22 away.

So the crude odds are around 200-1, but you wouldn't get those odds on an "Ipswich to draw 0-0 and Plymouth to lose" double.

You would have to stake a fair amount to be set up for life!

I would definitely go for 100 goals and 100 points.

Partly because it was put to Burley as a target when we were relegated from the Prem, so achieving it really feels like laying all the ghosts to rest.

Tho Plymouth have only lost once to a bottom-half side (Fleetwood!) away this season. Port Vale have not won against a top 9 team at home (lost all bar one). That will lengthen the odds somewhat.

I think the 100/100 is very achievable. But I doubt Plymouth will lose, meaning we'd need to do that anyway to stand a chance of being Champions.

Definitely the double century ,and we will be the subject of quiz question of who has achieved that but didn’t win the league

The KM interview on Talksport suggests they want to do 100 goals 100 points more than anything.

You ask any Olympian, they don't do all that training and hard work to finish second.

It's got to be the title. Bus top parades and town hall balconies need a trophy to pass around. First mission is accomplished but lets finish the job in the style we deserve.

Its in no way the same thing, what we have achieved is the stepping stone for bigger things for all of these players. To use your metaphor, its like winning a national competition, its great but its not the end goal. However, if you competed in the competition came second but set a new world record in the heats, you may be happier with that than winning a gold.
100 points, 100 goals for me all day long. If we get the title great but all we can control is our result so I'd much rather we did our bit than win the league with a 0-0.

The title. Any frustration at missing out on the double century would be considerably tempered by photos of Morsy holding a trophy aloft.

I’m happy just to be able to enjoy the game from k/o for the first time this season tbh - all the others have been angst-ridden nail-biting torture until we were at least five up!

With promotion sealed, anything else on top is a bonus. Hope we win obvs, and that it’s a good game with no injuries.

I know which the players would prefer, a medal that says winner on it rather than runner up.

I just don't get the 100 goals and points bit if it is a straight choice between doing that and winning the title?

We'll beat Fleetwood 3 or 4 nil, but more importantly, finally, FINALLY, Argyle will be spannered by a last gasp equaliser at Port Vale with a ridiculous banana shot from forty yards deflecting off two players before hitting their goalie in the face and trickling in.

More to come on the Gods innit...

Both???? Seriously, I'd take the double century and the golden boot to Chappers. We're out of the league, lets leave a note in the history books too.
