SLAMMED They aren't a good indication at all. Just because we've won our last 3 home games, doesn't mean we are going to win the next one. What you're basically saying is that form tables can predict the future...
NOPE. Form tables merely show how a team is currently playing.
We CAN make predictions
Based on recent results
Quality of teams played while getting those results
Quality of teams due to be played.
But we don't HAVE to. But some of us have common-sense. For example, "I think QPR are a good
side and have a very good chance of winning the championship..."
WHY? Cos they have W7 D2 and scored 20-2. SEE? That's RECENT FORM and I'm using it to suggest they are a very good team
They might have just won six on the trot, against the bottom 6
or lost six games on the trot against the top six
But if they've just thumped all of the top six 3-0, then chances are they are a top-top side
Do you SERIOUSLY believe that a side that has just won six on the trot, conceding no goals
versus a side that's just LOST six on the trot, scoring no goals... but next game they are
EQUALLY likely to win/draw/lose?
Do they breathe oxygen on your planet?
