Chandler Posted 11 February 2007 Share Posted 11 February 2007 Two little conundrums for a dull Sunday... 1) It's the final day of the 2106/7 Premiership season and we're 0-1 down at home to MAN U. With the final kick of the game Gary Lineker IV equalises with a low drive. Our grandhcildren and great grandchildren go ballistic over LCFC's second score draw of the season (the other was a 1-1 away at Anfield). Yet LCFC have amassed only a paltry 38 points. So what exactly are our descendents celebrating? 2) A year on and it's Man U again at home on the final day. But this time we thrash Manure 100-0 to complete an ignominious double over them. But at the end of the game news comes over from Forest and there is gloom all round even though LCFC have notched up an impressive 63 points and an outrageous goal difference of 2000! So why are future LCFC generations so despondent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted 11 February 2007 Share Posted 11 February 2007 I believe it's about Milan taking over and the club selling it's soul because it's no longer a community club even though none of then are up for it including the likes of David Wilson who owns 33% of a company that is about to be sold for £2.2billion!!!

Filbert_Ross Posted 11 February 2007 Share Posted 11 February 2007 2) A year on and it's Man U again at home on the final day. But this time we thrash Manure 100-0 if my betting genes have been passed on, my great great great great great grandson probably would of had a fiver on us to win 99-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilworthfox Posted 11 February 2007 Share Posted 11 February 2007 C'mon you lot -you're not even trying! Oh, alright, here's a clue... They're (basic) mathematical puzzles. 1) I don't know just worked the record out and it would be won 12 drawn 2 lost 24 2) Forest have just been promoted from Leauge 1?

Chandler Posted 11 February 2007 Author Share Posted 11 February 2007 On the right track Fez but it's more than that. Answers tomorrow lunchtime if no one posts the solutions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole season was a load of 0-0s and we were the only team to finish with neutral goal difference but win it on goals scored?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole season was a load of 0-0s and we were the only team to finish with neutral goal difference but win it on goals scored?! Correct BrookFox! Under current arrangements, the minimum points haul possible to gain the title is 38 and the minimum number of goals scored required for an outright win is two. A pair of used Anna Nichole Smith's knickers are on their way.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-man Posted 11 February 2007 Share Posted 11 February 2007 Correct BrookFox! Under current arrangements, the minimum points haul possible to gain the title is 38 and the minimum number of goals socred required for an outright win is two. A pair of used Anna Nichole Smith's knickers are on their way.... I therefore assume we were relegated the following season, as the maximum points to go down is 63?

Errr thanks - would have preferred them from a living lady but beggars can't be choosers! I've had a rumour from an inside source that the MM takeover is due to be completed the Thursday after this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler Posted 11 February 2007 Author Share Posted 11 February 2007 And you win ANS's thong, C-man! Sixty three points is the highest tally that can be achieved by a team relegated from the Premiership (19 home wins and two away victories) Strictly speaking, in this scenario, goal difference/goals scored is infinite. I have assumed a modest return of just over 100 goals per victory and the margin of each defeat to be by no more than just a single goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
