Title: PvO Stat
Post by: Bentley Bullet on January 25, 2020, 08:00:31 pm
One of the 5 joint leaders on 15 pts would have to correctly predict all of the remaining 19 games to finish on the same points as last years winner Monkcaster_Rover!

That score of 34 points last season was phenomenal.

You can have the title, gents. But you'll never have the crown.

Thank you for that BB! Makes this season's pitiful attempt a bit more worthwhile.

Yes - its strange but Leaders of PvO have 45% correct throughout the 33 Rounds

Looking at Super6 the Leader (ignoring scores in favour of Win Lose or Draw) has 50.45 % with 112 correct out of 222 predictions

Shows how difficult they both are

 :scarf:I am sacrificing my chances by voting Lose every week using reverse psychology.
So far so good.
I’m at the minute in a beach shack on a beach in Goa,32 degrees back to reality Tuesday morning.
Hopefully some of the depressing posts will be swept away in a tide of optimism and good signings by then. ps last Saturday we went in a little bar that had some football flags in them. I knew when I saw the Coventry flag that we would lose. ;). This Saturday was a lot better reading.

I had been predicting for many years on other forums as well, but this season is like no other. It is much harder with so many unplayed games for so many teams. It is very difficult to assess where most clubs really stand. Some clubs like Peterborough are artificially high as they have played 3 more games than us, and we don't know how many of the games in hand we will win. We sit in 10th, but I suspect should be about 6th. Having Bolton and Bury planned so early in our schedule messed us up early on.
Maybe next season Monkcaster's crown will be under threat. We'll see, but well done.

have you ever thought what the P & O table would look like if a Liverpool site ran a competition like this (apart from the massive entries)  what is is it 22-1-0 in the league alone.

talking about Liverpool's long unbeaten run i am putting a claim in for the longest number of matches "unbeaten" at the top or joint top of the table  ...    from match 4 to match 33 .(That's 29  matches)
Knowing how to "twist facts" helps  :thumbsup:

still time before the transfer deadline for Rovers to sign me and hound due to our "though shall't not pass" attitude  to "defending" the top spot  :suicide:

as i said elsewhere the next ten matches look a lot easier to predict either a win or a draw being the order of the day.
