Midfield_General Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 ...this is how the table would look. Irrelevant, but I'm bored of the closed season already, and it hasn't even started yet.
SaintBobby Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Really? I thought we drew with Stoke and Fulham "over 2 legs"
Matthew Le God Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Really? I thought we drew with Stoke and Fulham "over 2 legs" Away goals rule means it would be Saints beating Stoke and losing to Fulham.
DanW Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Stoke Away: 3-3 Stoke Home: 1-1 Sounds like a draw to me. edit: Oh. MLG answered that issue.
Matthew Le God Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Stoke Away: 3-3 Stoke Home: 1-1 Sounds like a draw to me. Not on away goals it wouldn't. Saints would get the win.
SammyJ Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Away goals rule means it would be Saints beating Stoke and losing to Fulham. But should away goals be considered in domestic football - there isn't any in the play-off semi finals?
Matthew Le God Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 But should away goals be considered in domestic football - there isn't any in the play-off semi finals? Take that up with Opta, I was just explaining what they've done.
anothersaintinsouthsea Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Amazing difference for WBA. WHAT DOES IT MEAN!?! they scored relatively few away goals? they were quite a few teams that they didn't lose to home or away so lost "real" points? e.g. their six points from us becomes only 3 points.
The9 Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Wacky stuff, which fails to take into consideration the changes to tactics that would occur if the matches actually were two-legged ties.
Lighthouse Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 By my reckoning we beat Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool, Stoke, QPR, Reading, Villa and Newcastle.
Dark Munster Posted 23 May, 2013 Posted 23 May, 2013 Amazing difference for WBA. WHAT DOES IT MEAN!?! That they'll go down next year? Here's hoping. Those ****s.
SaintBobby Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 Away goals rule means it would be Saints beating Stoke and losing to Fulham. I'm not aware of any domestic competition in which away goals count. Why show a league table which replicates European competitions rather than the League Cup/playoffs? Bizarre.
CB Fry Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 I'm not aware of any domestic competition in which away goals count. Why show a league table which replicates European competitions rather than the League Cup/playoffs? Bizarre. And its a league - so if it's a draw, then it's a draw. Just stupid.
hutch Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 If you remove all the teams that finished 13th or higher from the final table, then we won the league.
jawillwill Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 If they've taken into account away goals, why haven't they taken into account penalty shoot-outs for the teams which drew over 2 legs?
Turkish Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 Can someone do a table for how the league would look based on how any player a p*ss within 3 hours of the game finishing please, it would be fascinating reading.

The9 Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 Can someone do a table for how the league would look based on how any player a p*ss within 3 hours of the game finishing please, it would be fascinating reading. English players only, please.
VectisSaint Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 The Saintsweb Forum...Mocking harmless hypotheticals since 2006 Nice one. Seems like some people don't understand the concept of harmless fun.
CB Fry Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 Nice one. Seems like some people don't understand the concept of harmless fun. Taking the p*ss out of pointless stat bullsh it is harmless fun.
Deano6 Posted 24 May, 2013 Posted 24 May, 2013 I'm not aware of any domestic competition in which away goals count. Why show a league table which replicates European competitions rather than the League Cup/playoffs? Bizarre. League Cup semi-finals. Wigan beat Arsenal on away goals in 2006.
