Sorry Guthers - didn't see you standing behind me.
I was just trying to curb young Kenos enthusiasm.
He gets so excited over the silliest of things sometimes.

That's a false equivalency.

I could suggest that there is a link between the number of posts you made each week during our 2 promotion seasons and the number of points that Town got. Town got tons of points and you posted countless times (please don't count them even tho' you can).

The conclusion being that there is no link or ...

... you're not posting enough this season.

So to answer Keno's question. Guthers' table would show Man City winning the league with a maximum 114 points on goal difference over Liverpool. Arsenal will finish on equal points and goal difference with Brighton but the Seagulls will pip them to 3rd place on goals scored.

The best news however is that Town will avoid the drop in 17th place with 13 points. Wolves will finish on 13 points too but with an inferior goal difference and Southampton and Everton will finish at the bottom on zero points, Everton with a goal difference of around -100.

The prediction table is of course nothing more than a league table showing points acquired to date plus extra points based on recent form extrapolated over the remaining matches of the season. The reason why people get so excited about it is because a run of good form will show the team occupying a better position than what they currently have. However, as the season progresses it increasingly resembles the actual league table until the last match when it is in fact identical. I've always wondered why people get so excited about it.

It can't be that tricky to do:

Man City 114 +88 pending points deduction
Liverpool 114 +76
Brighton 88 +51
Arsenal 88 +51
Spurs 76 +76
Newcastle 76 +13
Brentford 76 +13
Villa 76 0
Bournemouth 63 +13
Forest 63 +13
Chelsea 57 +38
Man Utd 57 0
Fulham 51 0
West Ham 38 -13
Leicester 13 -25
Town 13 -63
Wolves 13 -76
Soton 0 -51
Palace 0 -57
Everton 0 -98

NB This is worked out before today's results which might dramatically alter those team's positions immediately. However, I do like the idea that Everton might end with or at least close to a triple figure negative goal difference!

EDIT: I also think it a little unlikely that both Man City and Liverpool will end with 100% winning records.

So Everton are going to avoid a one hundred negative goal difference but have negative points. That's going to take the shine off the Z Cars theme tune.

Arsenal are never finishing as high as 4th.
They don't get to play Brighton every week y'know.
