The worry for me after a great result is what it potentially cost in injuries for quite a difficult run of games coming up. We are trending upwards but have not won 3 premier league games in a row since 2002, such a fun season.
On staying up topic but not about Leeds, I was thinking of laying Sheff Utd for relegation. 2 to win 11 ( I will leave the amount out). objectively a crazy bet to take? I really think they can get out of this looking above them

Considering the only other full Premier season covered in that time period was the relegation one its not really too surprising.

Our last two games Leicester City and Everton it's W1L1 or 1.5 PPG
Our last Four games Brighton, Newcastle Utd, Leicester City and Everton its W2L2 .... or 1.5 PPG
Our last 6 games its W3L3 .... or 1.5 PPG
Our last 8 games its W4L4 .... or 1.5 PPG
Our last 10 games its W5L5 .... or 1.5 PPG
Our last 12 games its W6L6 .... or 1.5 PPG

So we are trending upwards at the rate of 1.5 PPG

Last season 57 points would have secured 8th.

57????
Played 21 and on 29 points, 17 games to go. As you are replying to the 1.5PPG, then with 16 games is 24pts, so on 53pts with 1 game to go.

Nah was just going through the fixtures and seeing what I thought was possible with the games remaining. (on the high end)

Oh okay, just there wasn't context.

At the start of the season many were hoping we'd get high 30's where as now it looks a lot higher.

I have based on results dependant on oppositions position

and we are above the prediction for 54 points and so 57 may well be a good shout

We are doing well verses the bottom teams, which is the minimum needed surely.

Something that does not look the same for the bottom 6
