Which means your source is bullsh*t if it exists, but I doubt it does. Pulled mine from the PL table. And yes averages are an estimation, a number used to give a general picture of a large space in time. No one can score .6 of a goal in a single match. It's a general idea, not a historical "fact" that happened physically. There's also the "fact" that if your average was true, we'd have only scored 24 goals per season, which is not even half of what we scored. In 2007-8 we scored 119 goals, the highest we have ever scored, and the highest out of any English club. Fact. In 2008-9 we had a +50 goal differential. Fact. Both of those numbers are higher than 24, aren't they? The "Fact" that you latched on to my averages statement instead of the numbers, which you obviously cannot argue with, is proof enough that you are being a child clutching at straws.

EMP has been clutching at straws through this whole debate, based on one very simple "fact" - that he doesn't like Rafael Benitez. Simple.

True enough. I like making trolls squirm though haha. You, Car, and Maxi absolutely ripped him apart.

people that use the word troll are just sheep looking for comfort in numbers. Rafa benitez was a ego driven robot of a manager that played crap football and destroyed everything he had going for him..his legacy will be leaving the club on its knees, its tradition in tatters. his final games were about as enjoyable as a funeral service. thanks rafa

oh and yes an average is not an estimation, its a fact a mathemathical one. ..so get ur facts right..:)

Clearly you have never taken statistics. Or an English class for that matter from your erratic punctuation, but that's beside the point. Averages and statistics are tools to look at a large set of data, but based on your centers of distribution your average (which is an approximation to create a picture that is roughly close to each number from your data pool, ie how many goals scored in one game) can be skewed. You add the goals up and divide by the number of games, but the number you get doesn't necessarily reflect the outcome of each game. One or two outliers in your data or a high standard deviation can make that average misleading. It is a mathematic tool, not the gospel truth. Approximation, even very precise approximation is one of the tenants of Mathematics. Maybe you should study it. Furthermore, you provided the wrong statistic. The average you presented is average goals conceded, not goals scored, so your very fragile argument is in tatters.
