    You can take that league with a pinch of salt though. It would be different if everyone where playing the same teams.

    I am sure Linfield would have a better point to game ratio if we had Dungannon in our gruop every season to.

    You think Dungannon make a mockery of the Setanta?! Wait 'til you see us.*

    *Under the proviso we qualify.

    There's always some sort of excuse in Linfield's favour isn't there, Steve - yet none accepted in anyone else's favour....

    God forbid anything might dare suggest that Linfield aren't the supreme champions of Irish football of all time, ever.....

    You obviously have a blinding problem with me, if you don't like what I post, ignore me.

    I was demonstrating how a league should be taken with a pinch of salt.

    If Man Utd had Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich in their group and Arsenal had, Brentford, Derry City & Linfield in their group. Who do you think would have the most points per game?


    Would the league table be a fair outlook on how things are?

    Didn't think so, so roll on and take your personal problem with me with ya.

    Hmmm strange that you never mentioned the tables pointlessness until it was pointed out that Drogheda actually had a better record than Linfield.

    Indeed.

    And the comparison with Barcelona etc and Brentford etc is ridiculous. We're talking about one Dungannon here - not 3 Dungannon's in one group.

    Anyway as Linfield fans love to remind everyone, they almost always beat the Glens and City have yet to beat them - so sounds to me like Linfield have the easiest group usually.

    Drogheda have a better record than Linfield in every way, they have won it twice to our one.

    Although I'd rather have the points on the board than the games in hand.

    Linfield, Glentoran, Cliftonville and Coleraine I imagine... unless they switch Coleraine for Lisburn Distillery, but I doubt that'll happen.
