Is the gulf divide between the big and small teams getting larger?

Makes Leicester’s title seem more incredible. I expect current top 6 to stay as is next season. Only question is can Liverpool challenge City again. Other four will still be behind. Gap between 6th and 7th has been big last two seasons.

I agree.I suppose the league table says that with two teams finishing 25 points better off than the rest and near on 100 points.Without the Spurs/Arsenals/Chelseas and Man Utd.

City lost to Newcastle, Palace, Leicester and Chelsea. So three of the sides who beat them were mid table. City should arguably have done better.

None of their top 6 rivals did much damage (Liverpool drew and lost). Other draw was wolves, so City took 6 points off Arsenal, Spurs and Man U.

Liverpool fans must be really upset - 97 points and with nothing to show for it (ha ha).

I grew up when Liverpool were the top team in the 70s and 80s when they won the League practically every year (or it seemed like that). That is one reason that I have no love for Liverpool, I suppose it's mainly jealousy.

I have nothing against the Club itself but I hate the way Liverpool supporters seems to think that they have a divine right to success. I also hate the way the media loves them and thinks that all of the public love them too.

Sorry as I know this was a bit of a rant.

That is wrong. Impossible to compare as there were differing numbers of teams hence different number of games.
Liverpool did win title with 68 points in a 42 game season with 2 points for a win which would equate to 98 points (W30 D8 L4). But that is with 4 extra games.
Its not really wrong then is it

98 points from 42 games
97 points from 38 games
Makes sense this liverpool would have come 2nd with
109 points from 42 games.

So what you have written is a team with 109 points would come second to a team with 98 points.
Nope.

What you have written suggests
Liverpool would play 42 games & Man City would
Only play 38 games in the same season.

I would suggest liverpool
2nd on 109 points

While City would have been 1st with 110 points.

What is wrong is that no matter how it is sliced and diced Liverpool would not have won 113 out of 119.
That is what you wrote originally and now you are just focusing on this season.
What point were you trying to make?
97 points would have won 113 out of 119 seasons titles.

Other teams whose seasons were in a 2 points for a win campiagn could not have reached 97 points only 84 maximum .

😀

If you have a problem speak to BBC 5 live about it fella

It's always nice on top of hot chocolate in the winter with some marshmallows thrown on top for good measure.

So you are wrong.
No i quoted a bbc worker .

You were wrong claiming other teams & 2 points for a win would have finished higher than Liverpool.

Nope it was definitely you who decided to be the pedantic f*ckwit 1st 😉
