Obviously stats like this need to be taken with a pinch of salt but the fact we’re producing these numbers is pretty amazing. I honestly feel we’re so so close to something quite special over the next few years. A couple of signings (and maybe, unlike this season, a slice of luck) along with Potter staying and improving what’s here and maybe, even a midtable finish might be on the cards!

GET IN!

A whole 0.1 above Real Sociedad.

Cue utter bedlam - scenes that make Reinelt’s goal at Edgar Street look like a wake in comparison.

This is what football is truly all about.

At least Villarreal can console themselves about being below us with the Europa League final and a shot at CL football for next season.

I think we all know who the real winners are here.

Arsenal appear to be higher in this league than they are in the EPL!

And no Sheffield Wednesday. ???

I'm out.

I think the tops been cropped, Leeds are in position 0

Is that the position reserved for the champions of Europe?

This.

I haven't been so happy since the last statistical table that placed us just below Burnley.

Any article that calls a game where scores are equal a 'tie' is immediately suspect IMO. Doubly so when the renowned (for predicting all of one US election against the odds) Nate Silver is behind it.

And all it does is say that Brighton should be high in the League because they do everything right except score (funnily enough GS is not within the criteria); I never knew that....

Ffs, I just cracked open a vintage bottle of chateauneuf du pape to celebrate this wholeheartedly exciting news.
And to think there was a thread earlier this week questioning whether NSC-ers considered if the team had progressed this season.

Quick show Kane and Son we’re above Spurs and we could steal them and do the real thing on the pitch next season. They must want to work with G.P. and be the missing pieces.
