    Shame there's no "boring as fck" section, we'd do well there.

    The five teams missing from the top 6 graph (presumably because they had 0 days in the top 6) are 

    1. Norwich City
    2. Oxford United
    3. Sheffield United
    4. Sheffield Wednesday
    5. Swansea City
    Makes sense for Sheff Utd after their poor start 

    Norwich nearly made it into the top 6 second half of the season. 

    I am very surprised Swansea had 0 days, perennnial mid table.

    Yes.   It's called the staying up trophy.

    Judging by the discussion on another thread Steve 'seven times a night 'Davis should get that.

    So what I gather from those stats is that Millwall and Hull play shite football effectively, and the winner of Southampton and Middlesbrough should play them off the park but will probably be hit on the counter attack and lose 1-0

    Or we don’t play endless pointless passes along our back four and back to our keeper, which was just what Southampton did in the first half of the season. In fact it was only when they changed their style a bit and went a bit more ‘fast and direct’ that they started to climb up the table.

    Look at your peers

    Blackburn, Charlton, Oxford, QPR... Shite football, just you guys perfected it.

    In fact, looking at the other stats where you and Hull finished way higher in points than your expected points, you probably didn't even perfect it, but got the rub of the green more than some

    We perfected shite football? 🤣 got the rub of the green? Only Coventry won more games than us. That’s some rub of the green lol. 
    Bottom line is I can only go from my own experience. I used to get bored senseless with Rowetts football. Harris’ wasn’t much better. Effective but dull. I rarely get bored watching Neil’s football.

    Well Millwall fans seem to be enthralled by watching paint dry which is a sign of their level of cognitive processing so I am not surprised your fans don’t get bored

    The style of play does seem to be a constant with Rowett , same comments came up with Oxford and Leicester about it not being good to watch and him being scared to make a sub. 

    Will be interesting to see if he gets another go at this level.

    It was effective, and probably needed at the time, but mind numbing most of the time.

    Think it's fine as a means to an end to keep someone up but longer term it just feels like it just bores the fans in the end because it never really develops.

    Definitely got the rub of the green in your home game against us.

    First was off-side.
    Second I can't remember but undoubtedly was lucky.
    3rd was a penalty that would never have been given if the ref was a Charlton fan and
    4th only happened because Ramsey forgot to take the 50p off his head and headed it straight to your player. 
    Outside of those 4 goals, you only created a handful of really clear cut chances you should have scored from.
    Jammy buggers.

    I realise it’s very unlikely, but it could still be Palace that get relegated. (Or even Leeds or Newcastle).

    Dont dismiss it until it’s impossible. We can but dream. 😎🤞🏼
    What's the R number 😄

    With almost all teams having played 35 games, and Burnley and Wolves already relegated, West Ham are currently the 'critical team' and have 36 points.

    Their maximum total is therefore 45, so Crystal Palace need 46 to be mathematically certain of avoiding the drop.

    They currently have 43 points from 34 games so R =3.

    Note that R number calculations for teams other than our own are done as a 'special' and are not available routinely.

    Are you going tonight Moody/Millwall fan?

    Southampton are the best team out of the 4 but I think they will lose the first leg

    I could do with some of what you've picked, whilst I think about the expansive football Nathan is drilling them with for next season.

    Not sure where this obsession for playing it about with the keeper came from?  (Everyone trying to emulate manchester city maybe?).

    Manchester united conceded a goal because of it last week and just seems to invite unnecessary pressure on the defence.  We had loads of close/ near misses this season it felt from pissing about from goal kicks only to then lump it up anyway.

    This keeper shit is all on Pep. Remember first thing he did was to bomb Hart out of City.

    Don't really care how good our keeper is with his feet.
    Be nice to have some midfielders that can muster a pass to a teammate though.
