    What about this piece of fun

    Briefly, it purports to correct the results by fixing ref decisions. Ironically, perhaps, in the adjusted table Man Utd won by five points!

    See I don't understand how that works. Penos doesn't automatically mean a goal, offside decisions doesn't mean that player would of scored.

    Then there is the way a match would of changed if goals had gone in at certain times.

    Yeah.............But it's only a bit of fun - like lads here speculating what might have been. Obviously they have no way to measure a psychological effect, like they don't cover non-sendings off, for example.

    I just don't go for the conspiracy theories surrounding penalties awarded etc. Statistically the top 4 teams would spend more time attacking, sometimes the defenders will make a late challenge and concede a penalty. The lower teams in the prem spend more time defending. For them to be awarded a penalty they have to make a bit of an effort and at least try to get the ball into the opposition's box.

    Its really stupid to think now situation on table would be different judging by 1 or 2 penalties more or less for some team,i just think theres no conspiracy,if theres were 20 penalties for some team maybe i would think something,but 5-6.....
