fleckneymike Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 The image below shows where teams would rank in every pervious Premier League season based on their 2014/15 points. We'd be dead last in 17 previous seasons and 19th in the other two
Voll Blau Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 I'd reconsider applying for that role with the Samaritans if I were you.
Stevosevic Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 I assume we've got less points at this stage than we had under Taylor/Bassett?
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 The image below shows where teams would rank in every pervious Premier League season based on their 2014/15 points. We'd be dead last in 17 previous seasons and 19th in the other two Not really surprising.
Corky Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 I assume we've got less points at this stage than we had under Taylor/Bassett? Same. We had 17 points for a while.
Arriba Los Zorros Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Hull's 23 would have had them bottom for one of the seasons, glad we're not playing in that season......
Sunbury Fox Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Same. We had 17 points for a while. That is shocking. The current team is streets better than that team.
Guest Col city fan Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Is anyone surprised? This season has been epitomised by two things: A gross underestimation of the Prem League A big over-inflation of the ability of our so-called 'best players' It's been a shocking season.
Swiss_tony Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 cue mc prussian to pipe up with something along the lines that you can say anything with statistics and that we're actually doing really well.
Stevosevic Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 It's been a shocker, can't dress it up any other way.
Sunbury Fox Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 That season was the last season of our 6 year stay in the Prem so it was not about underestimating the league. We had a dire team. Just checked out the results. We got hit for 3 or more goals 7 times in the league plus got battered 6-0 at home to Leeds in the League Cup. Really think this season's team is potentially much better.
Callabinho Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Not really surprising news is it to be honest, we're no different to any side that's finished in the bottom three over the recent years, these facts and figures just make is even more depressing than it actually is.
Webbo Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 It's not really a surprise that a team at the bottom of the league would probably be on the bottom of the league with the same points in years gone by. I'll go as far as to say a team on 17 points at this stage next season will probably be bottom as well. Apart from demonstrating that we're bottom of the league, which I'm sure we all already knew, I can really see the point of this thread.

Webbo Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Look at the numbers for those teams above us. I've looked, what am I supposed to have seen?
fleckneymike Posted 18 February 2015 Author Posted 18 February 2015 I've looked, what am I supposed to have seen? This is the 20th season for the Prem, there's only ever been 2 sides worse than us In nearly half of all Prem seasons Sunderland would be bottom 3, yet here they sit 7 points clear of us and in 15th.

So you're saying we're not doing very well? Thanks for the heads up, who knew?
Tielemans63 Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 This is an impressively pointless thread. I thought we were having a terrific season until I read that.
Out Foxed Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 So you're saying we're not doing very well? Thanks for the heads up, who knew? I didn't, now i do.
fleckneymike Posted 18 February 2015 Author Posted 18 February 2015 This is an impressively pointless thread. I thought we were having a terrific season until I read that. Not only are we not 'doing very well', we're doing worse than almost every single side in the history of the league.
Tielemans63 Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 Not only are we not 'doing very well', we're doing worse than almost every single side in the history of the league. I can see that. Just can't understand this mindset where people are determined to squeeze every last drop of misery out of what has been an awful season. I'm not saying we should be happy about it but how many threads illustrating the shitness of this season do we need? Yes, we are a shower right now but for ****s sake, some of those comparisons are a total waste of time.
Voll Blau Posted 18 February 2015 Posted 18 February 2015 It really does feel like some people are reveling in all this. Guess it makes them feel like every misplaced pass they've booed in the past five-odd years was all totally worth it.
