No doubt, but as I said that is not the conversation being had.  The conversation is that people here (and software) predicted that if we won all our remaining  games we would 100% be in the top six, and looking in hindsight would that have been the case or not, and if so then by how much.

if we won 100% of our games we would win the league

Stop being facetious. The context here is that we are talking about predictions which were made post the WSW game when people thought we might have an upswing of form. It's a purely hypothetical situation, with people asking at that point how many games would we need to win to be top six? Now, with the benefit of hindsight, we know how many points we needed and therefore can take a guess as to the accuracy of those predictions.

and as i say a pointless meaningless discussion.  If pointing that out is being facetious so be it.

Deriding someone else's discussion because you personally decide it is pointless, talk about pathetic. 

A few of us discussed this 2 months ago, I just re-visited it to test out how accurate the conclusions were at the time.

Pretty harmless to be fair. 

i am a nix fan.  Therefore I am Pathetic.  Gareth said so

Most of us don't know much about football anyway
