"What stats allow you to do is not take things at face value. The idea that I trust my eyes more than the stats, I just don't buy that because I've seen magicians pull rabbits out of hats and I know I just know that rabbit's not in there." - Billy Beane

It is just message boards really - posts swinging between euphoria and despair - something about the web amps it times a million.
But while football is mad and unpredictable (and this season lots of no shows from the players has added to that) it is possible to make reasonable predictions.
Just go to be realistic... and take it all with a pinch of salt too

Look at Blackburn beating Man Utd last year or Man City destroying united, or wigan surviving the last few seasons, or us being ahead against man city until the 90th minute. Ultimately, while we can make any prediction we want about being favourites to go down, it will mean nothing if the fans and players fight for our right to be in this league and that is the whole point of this threadYou should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

I must admit I was very optimistic during the summer when players like Granero, Hoillett and Park were signed and mates who supported other teams thought we would do well.
All in all though it has been a season to forget........except for that night in SW6

Had a right good bubble travelling the country with me pals on away days, mind - experienced the nightlife in some right old dives

We can all use stats to make a picture look more rosey. Yes we have won 2 from 3 but so have villa. We also won 0 from 16. Probability and our inability to score enough goals will mean we will go down. It will be with a fight which is better than it would have been if Hughes was still here!
