The on topic thread

We always seem to be the exception to these sort of stats.

Top of the league at Christmas always wins the whole thing, the only exception? Liverpool. Twice.

Only team to not win the league having scored 90+ goals in a season? Liverpool.

eh?

I thought it was the other end that was more reliable. Last at Christmas only had a couple of exceptions.

 

[Cooldude]

eh?

Yeah I thought it couldn't be right coz I remembered loads of teams not winning it after top of Christmas

I'm curious, are many of the posters on this board members of forums dedicated to their own team or do they come here for a majority of their football discussion and banter?

I only read the youf section of the café. Most if the club forums are just circle jerks.

Hard not to focus on other teams a lot of the time.

I come here for most of my posting, but i also post on a small Doggies forum and a pretty good Chelsea one too.

I like the mixture of supporters on here as opposed to only a single set elsewhere.

 

[Magma]

here and somewhere else. no city forums. just city twitter accounts.

 

[moomba]

I go on bluemoon occasionally. Used to a lot more but don't have so much time for it nowadays.

Still read it most days.

Havent been on it for a while, but am on that other forum for those other people that may or may not have left BF a while back.

 

[Cruyff14]

Used to be on another forum, but it was mainly European based, then jd2010 told me to join BF.

This is the only forum I post on nowadays.

You're not trying to boost your stats for your annual mod performance review and bonus are you?

I post on a Hull forum as well but they're all a bit emotional. I'd say some are worse than WR.

Worst in the Football League. How's Pardiola not been sacked yet?

This is the first I've heard of this. I'm guessing it caused quite the furor at the time if you can't even mention the name of it.

Anyway, I regularly read and semi-regularly post on a Spurs forum, but like chef says, I also enjoy the mix of supporters on here. It's interesting to read things from another perspective rather than the group think that can sometimes prevail within fans of the same club. The banter is more enjoyable as well and is one of the things that make the Association Football sub great imo.

eh?

I am extremely disappointed with this table.

I thought it was the other end that was more reliable. Last at Christmas only had a couple of exceptions.

Curse of Christmas. Here ya go. Shaded red finished bottom, red text is relegated, and the green survived.



Fun facts about those that survived: Leicester were bottom in 14-15, and were top the year after. The only time in the PL, and the first time since Norwich did the same in 87-88 and 88-89.

West Brom were actually dead last even at MD38. Thanks to a freak set of results, West Brom survived in 17th. I think they still had the more dramatic escape from relegation, whereas our escape was a boring draw to Sunderland to escape, despite what was actually form that would continue on to next season.

Sunderland... are just Sunderland. They've been pulling this crap for far too long.

One surprising thing for me? No Wigan. Never been bottom at Christmas at all.

Oi no one is worse than me mate!

LFCRULZ from Reddit, apparently not the most reliable source.

Amazing when you think 10 of Villa's 31 points have been under Bruce in the last five games.
