haha, you've made that up, i'm not that gullible.

i love how nobody has pointed out how the APLT never mirrors the eventual table. I get the idea of an alternative table to be used for the first dozen or so games, but it has to add up correctly in the end.

RAWK poster + alternative league table follower = virgin who lives at home with his mum in Speke.

Seems to add up correctly to me?
 

Rock Stars often die at 27...

Whereas the RS will be 27 (and counting) when they fail to win the title again next May. So perhaps they too should be gently directed to the Dignitas HQ and shuffled off this mortal coil.

Plus they've built a lovely new mausoleum / giant folly on Walton Brexit Road.
 
it matters not how many games we win we just cant overtake those pesky reds on the APLT, sometimes I wonder if its biased :Blink:

Always good for a laugh right, I don't quite get this alternative league when the real McCoy is right there for us.
I almost pity them in their own little world, wake up and smell the coffee.

We love Mad Max and his mastery of writing numbers, together with an emoji that rolls and laughs.......we also love that Prof and his amazing APLT that bears no relation to reality or the final table positions.......please let them know how much we appreciate the wit, humour and science that they employ, thanks........
 
I seriously fear for the mental health of some of them over there, to go to this amount of trouble to create an alternative reality is borderline.

So apparently we were "supposed to win" at Sunderland - is that something to do with them being at the bottom end of the table last season? OK I get that but, wait a minute.. promoted Middlesbrough were supposed to win there too? Burnley get nil point for beating Liverpool? Hull over Leicester?

What kind of fd up brain can possible argue that beating the Champions (when the team is just promoted) isn't a "positive" result?

APLT. That lad has tooooooooooo much time on his hands. That is honestly the first time I have set eyes on that cack.

It's been going for years, it's always crap, but no matter the results as long as it puts the RS above where they actually are in the league and shows that they will win the league then they are happy........

I'm a red and that thing he has put up is the biggest load of cack going. For what it's worth I think you and us will be going for 5th or 6th. A decent start giving confidence and few injuries almost got Newcastle into the Champions league a few years back.

Irrelevant. As we do not exist in their comparison graph it doesn't matter.......it's very simple.....

Really don't understand this concept?? Anyone care to put into laymans terms?

Each game has a "par score" of either 1 or 3.
- For away games against the teams who finished in the top 12 places last season "par" equals 1.
- For all home games and the remaining 7 away games "par" equals 3.

If you win a par 1 game you get +2 points in the APLT. (3 points for a win - 1 point for par = 2 points)
If you draw a par 1 game you get 0 points in the APLT. (1 point for draw - 1 point for par = 1 point)
If you lose a par 1 game you get -1 points in the APLT. ""
If you win a par 3 game you get 0 points in the APLT. ""
If you draw a par 3 game you get -2 points in the APLT. ""
If you lose a par 3 game you get -3 points in the APLT. ""

By "playing to par" you will stay on 0 points in the APLT. Over the course of a full season this is the same as getting 90 points in the real table (19 home wins * 3 points + 7 away wins * 3 points + 12 away draws * 1 point).

The idea is that by applying a "par score" for each game you take into account the difficulty of the fixtures (based on where each team placed the previous season), something which the actual table doesn't. This means that e.g. teamA might be a few points behind teamB in the real table after XX amount of games, but because of a much easier set of fixtures remaining teamA is still favorite to finish above teamB in the end."
