"We are striking at 1.24 pts per game and assuming that's a constant for the rest of the season we should muster 47 pts."

First thing I thought on reading that Blue, was that you couldn't begin to assume it would be a constant for the rest of the season, because we must be one of the most inconsistent teams in the PL. Or so I thought until I checked it out, we've played 25 games, if you split them into groups of five, this is the number of points we've got from each group, 5,7,6,6,7. I was wrong, in fact we've been incredibly consistent, maybe that 47 is a reasonable proposition.
