Thanks for this, it would have been a lot higher a month ago.

The comments on that item are very mocking of it though, and some are quite funny.

The one thing I notice on reading that is how far ahead are the 3 favourites to go down - evens or worse. With a third of the season left, surely it's much to early to say that?

Nothing is guaranteed, it's all about assessing probability. But at least this is a scientific analysis and as it goes, the results coincides with the same 5 I've tipped to be in the mix, so clearly it's extremely good. 😉

I'm more than happy with the science, more than happy with the 17% analysis. Just need to put all this into practice now.

Just convert the odds into a percentage and invert it.

We are 9/4 to go down which converted to a percentage of happening is 30.8%. So to stay up it works out at 69.2%, which prior to checking was roughly my realistic guess (70%).

oh.


If the odds are 9/4 it means the probability of you winning is 4 times out of 13.

(4 ÷ 13)*100 = 30.769

What's with the 'current league positions' down the bottom of the page? Got us down as 13th? Am I missing something?

Isn't that the position they have us to finish?

I had us in 10th with 42 pts on the ru in calculator someone posted somewhere

If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious.

If that's the case, they aren't 'current league positions'?

Easier way is since 9/4 = 3.25 in decimal terms.

100 divided by 3.25 = 30.769
