Nope - not even then. 

Played 34 - Not Won 20

that’s a majority

Nope. 
 

If they’re 3 possible outcomes you need to divide 34 by 3. The minimum for a majority of any given one is 12. 
 

We are on 14- winning is the majority of the three possible results.

And that's why our political system has descended into chaos

I’m with big dog here! If the question is have we won the majority of our games then there are 2 outcomes… winning and not winning. We haven’t won the majority of games. The most common outcome is a win though. But neither has anyone else other than Barnet and Chesterfield. I’m not with big dog when including anyone other than Mellon’s results though!!

The thing about that Maidenhead is that I didn’t think we played entertaining football necessarily. We were just positive and played with confidence. If we did that at home the majority of fans would feel much better about the season. We don't need to put together 30 pass moves. 

Just as well, this lot are incapable of it.

You can’t dismiss Drawing. It’s a viable result.
 

Played 34 

 

Won 14

Drawn 11

Lost 9

 

Outcome/majority/biggest/most common is semantics to my mind. 
 

Winning is the Majority.

Form table porn

 

. . . and there's more:

Home form - Latics are 15th

Away form - Latics are 4th

Overall - Latics are 7th

 

Just a 'slight' improvement in our home form and a play-off place is in our grasp. In any case, as our away form is better than our home form, then finishing 6th or 7th could be just fine.

 

Typical of the perennial pessimistic @GKing521 to come up with the most asinine thread title I've seen for a very long time.

 

Mellon in.

If we finish in the playoffs - he’s done a very good job. 
 

If we finish just outside the playoffs - he’s done ok, and still gets next season. 
 

If, after a summer of recruitment we are still really poor at home, then he will be under pressure. 

Come on L1F, that's a worryingly sensible, calm and rational post for this thread. What on earth are you thinking?!

Winning is the Majority. 

Winning is the highest of the three options but not the majority of the number of games played.

 

Where I come from, a majority is a number or percentage equaling more than half of a total.

 

Semantics huh?

Not at all, we can't be a slave to the fabled form table for one person then disregard it for another though.

Whereabouts was Unsworth in the form and actual table when he was sacked?

 

I don't think anything was disregarded

I was on here justifying the board's decision to keep Unsworth on in the summer purely because of the results of the 2nd half of last season.

 

I then was perfectly happy with their decision to bin him off after the first 9 games due to results.

 

You won't find me disrespecting the form table.

[disjointed]

Every time I see the thread title, I envisage Mickey wearing an extravagant hessian timepiece.

The point was you couldn't justify sacking him in the summer based on the form table, not unless you were a form table #disrespecter

You are right, the point is he should have been sacked in the January.

I didn't ask for him to be sacked in the summer

There were 2 points where I think it would have been reasonable to sack him - in January like you say and when they actually did. I understand why they didn't do it in January, and they were justified to some extent by the results in the 2nd half of the season. But he'd used up all his credit, so when he had that bad run this season he was gone. 

 

Mellon, on the other hand, has the occasional bad game. So to even have a thread that mentions his name and the word "sack" is ridiculous!

My apologies, I must have misinterpreted what you meant when you referred to the damage he did in the summer.

I don't think any reasonable right minded person wants him sacked. I can understand people's disappointment after Saturday as it was all set up to be a celebration. Shit happens still a hell of a lot to play for.

I know. I don’t want to miss out though, so I’m thinking of a new thread as we speak, my current front runner is-

 

Promotion . . .  Do we really need it?

It isn't the majority, it's the most. Big difference

It’s semantics again. 
 

Governments are formed by winning a majority or you gain the most seats. If can’t have one without the other.

Roger Palmer - how many goals was too many?

[LaticsEddie]

I keep thinking about that Borham Wood first half and the more I do the more I think it wasnt that bad. We played some good stuff at points, were patient in build up and most attacks led to something. Given we had the performance on Saturday and the Woking game since then, I kinda wish he would have to stuck to it for a bit to see how we adapted over time.

I hope the personel he feels he needs is brought in over the summer and we start to see some entertaining football during pre season.
