Tbh it is the only way imo.
And I would include P&R based on that method.
Like I`ve said previously whatever happens some teams will be disappointed just like they would if the season was played out.

Agreed. I can’t see the season being played out in the championship. I think it’s the safest option to do points per game calculation. It ticks enough boxes for everyone but obviously it has the potential for legal challenges...

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun Jun 21, 2020 4:15 pm  

Points per game anyone?

On a serious note we again lacked cutting edge up front. Both wingers poor. Bamford never looked like scoring he just doesn’t have the instinct for it. Worst game I’ve seen Kalvin have for a long time.. Fulham game now huge. Plus side is no damage done but it was a BIG chance to go 10 clear. That would have been absolutely huge. Cardiff and Harris once again a thorn in our side.

how did we lose it??? think a short time training suits long ball sides. we will be better for the game. no real harm done and next 2 games vital. bamford was awful. like you say, nothing new there

To be promoted Leeds need to win 5 more games as the table stands at present.

Although there are plenty more twists and turns with sides playing each other in the remaining games

The Fulham game is now massive as we will either move 10 points clear of them if we win or they close the gap to 4 points if they win

Promotion is still in their own hands

Totally agree poor wing play and Bamford is lucky we don't have a replacement up front.
A decent striker would have scored 2 today.
Mind you he did manage to clear one off the line stopping a certain goal
If Pablo isn't fit I would be tempted to swap Roberts and Bamford.
Roberts again as poor as he is looks better upfront and Bamford can play behind him which might take some pressure off him.
The only decent player for Leeds was Ben White.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun Jun 21, 2020 6:15 pm  

agree Robert's is better up top.
pablo is back training on wednesday, so is augustin. I do feel we needed a game and I would expect us to better next week. if we can take 6 points from Fulham and luton we are virtually there. if.

Be interesting to see how we play without the roar of the big crowd behind us... big big game against Fulham. We must not lose it.

might help us. no nervous tension from the fans.

White was class we will do well to sign him.

What made me laugh about Bamford and him getting in the way of the shot was the complete lack of urgency to score that he showed. He literally just stood there whilst the Cardiff players did everything they could to keep it out. He has Zero killer instinct. But Costa and Harrison need to do much much more in final 3rd. Thought Costa was the worst of the lot tbh. Goes to ground too easily
