fleckneymike Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 This analysis of season trends points to a 78% chance of staying up (compared to just 66% last season) More depressingly it shows what a closed shop the top 4 is
Nalis Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 Top 4 here we come. We are the 1%. Yes! I presume the 1% was Everton?
ScouseFox Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 why doesn't the third category add up to 100% did one team just vanish?

The Doctor Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 why doesn't the third category add up to 100% did one team just vanish? I'd assume rounding errors - those being just above the number given but not enough to round up to the one above.
Wymsey Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 Think next season, the bottom 12 will be tight. We could be anywhere within these positions, but can settle for 14th again.
Clever Fox Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 Probably stating the obvious but we will need the strikers to hit the ground running. Especially Krameric and Okazaki. Ulloa I'm sure will contribute 10 plus again. We struggled to score for too long last season. That cant happen again, otherwise we could find ourselves in difficulty.
Tuna Posted 26 July 2015 Posted 26 July 2015 Impossible to predict until we know the squad for next season. Unrealistic to judge the current squad.
Monk Posted 27 July 2015 Posted 27 July 2015 Anything from 8th to 20th. It's impossible to predict. On one hand I doubt we will hit a slump as bad as last season, on the other I don't think we'll be as good as we were at the end of the season. Average it all out, and I think we'll finish mid table, which would be a great achievement.
Thracian Posted 27 July 2015 Posted 27 July 2015 We may well finish bottom. It has little to do with our squad. It just seems that something is radically wrong at the moment. Even with the pre-season friendlies you'd think players would be ultra keen to make an impression on Raniera but that doesn't seem to have been the case in general and it all seems to have been flat and uninspired. Meanwhile it's as if the footballing fraternity have responded to the sacking of an established football man - player and manager - for what seems to be non-footballing reasons given the guy's success, by saying we don't want to be involved. That might all be an overstatement, of course, but the Cambiasso decision was most wounding. It's my firm belief he'd have signed for another season if Pearson had still been here and I think his not doing so has left us deflated. I just think it's the worst preparation for a season imaginable. Two or three exciting signings might lift the mood but I'm not convinced it will stay that way. Even a really good squad won't do very well if the atmosphere's not right. I sincerely hope it doesn't turn out that way because I have great respect for all the owners have done for our club in a general sense, their ambition is there for all to see and I'm sure they thought their decision concerning Pearson was the right one. But, the mood needs lifting quickly. Our squad has gone through a lot with Pearson - they are almost all Pearson people - and I'm not convinced they'll consider Ranieri/Rudkin in quite the same way.
americanfox Posted 10 April 2016 Posted 10 April 2016 #NeverWrong 0% for next year sounds good, as does 81%...
ajthefox Posted 10 April 2016 Posted 10 April 2016 This is glorious. Also, no-one has ever finished top 4 and then got relegated. Maybe we could break that record too...?
Lloydwasmylife Posted 10 April 2016 Posted 10 April 2016 This is a nice perspective check when we're all talking about what game week we're going to WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE
