It was just interesting reading and i think we have moved up two places.

Its going to read wrong when some leagues have more games than others.

Its a table that spits in the face of the myth that Chelsea are a big club.

Its nonsense - just based on number of seasons in the football league, so those teams who have been around for longer have got more points - hence Grimsby at number 21 and Tottenham at 37.

To make it meaningful it should be weighted so those points you get in the higher leagues are worth more, and the total should be divided by the number of season.

Only when relegation or "test matches" were involved.

Its a perfectly good example across the whole of the English football spectrum.
If you want less points for a second or lower division team, work it out, blues would be far lower, having spent more time out of the higher divisions.
The vile would be higher if you wanted a weighted balance.

Interesting to see the notes at the bottom of the page showing teams with points deducted. How on earth have West Ham been able to get away with it this season?
