Simple question: how do you think you’d react to the scenario of us staying up, but with our lowest ever PL points tally?

The age of the squad is highly relevant since a young squad performing in a similar manner to CH's older squad means that both value and potential has increased
I'm assuming you've already been ripped to shreds for this model you are using?
If not:
It doesn't work that way ****tard! We are on target to hit 39 points, see [MENTION=3734]Giraffe[/MENTION]'s tracker and educate yourself.
I’d be amazed if anyone cared as long as we stayed up
Weird question
If we take everybody’s form after 19 games (the halfway point) and duplicate that for the second half of the season, the points threshold to stay up would be 26 - I’m presuming a record low. Even if you take into account the likelihood of the bottom three scrapping out a few extra points towards the end of the season, it’s hard to envisage the threshold being much more than 30 to survive this year. One way or another, I think that’ll be manageable for Albion.
However, if you do the same formula for Albion, we would end up with 34 points, our lowest PL points tally across the four seasons and 7 points fewer than GP achieved last year.

It's not up to Tony to decide. That's not how the club is run. It is run by a board of directors. As my post literally states, the club has previously defined progress as "one point more or one position higher than the previous season". That literally came from the mouth of the Deputy Chairman who caveated that it was the view of the club. Perhaps my use of the quotation marks around "progress" and then defining what "progress" means for the club was a little too subtle for you, or maybe you didn't bother reading the rest of the post.
If you had then what on earth have you read or heard or seen that makes you think that the club have completely changed their mind to now measure success by the age of the squad because Potter is in charge?
I’ve never particularly cared for the tracker, who decides when and where we get 3 points on it, is it stats based or is just someone scribbling down the results they think we should get?
As it stands 39 points seems optimistic being that we’ve already had the easiest home games and didn’t win a single one, how many more home wins does it have us scheduled for?
Staying up is the important aspect the number of points is not relevant
