 Draw 2 lose 1 = 2 points gained.
Draw 2 lose 1 = 3 points lost to the opposition.

Win 1 lose 2 = 3 points gained.
Win 1 lose 2 = 6 points lost to the opposition.

That is possibly why draws are value as the net loss is only 1 point compared to 3. Appreciate this is all based on the fact you play the same team each game but hopefully you get my point - i am sure i do myself though, but over tuna and rice for lunch it seems to make sense to me.

Isn't that 5 points lost to the opposition?

No because a draw means the points are shared, on the basis you play the same team. Appreciate though you play lots of different teams but as for losing ground on the opposition is what I am trying to get across. My head is cabbaged but i know what i mean and that is all that counts lol.

Think we'll have to agree to disagree. For me,

DDL = 2 points for us, 5 points for them
WLL = 3 points for us, 6 points for them

Seems to me it's the same deficit.
I agree with Ballers that it might be better to have WLL if only for the fact you've got one more point to move you away from danger.

Having said that, I prefer WWW (especially in the opening 3 matches!)  ;)

I think you're agreeing with Jimmy Hill actually. Although I agree too as it happens.   :)

anyone who went to Torquay on valentines day to be met with Jody banim




That sounds like possibly the world's least romantic blind date.
