That's some pretty poor reasoning, even by your standards Stef.

Exactly what comparison are you measuring by contrasting your position after 
the justified imposition of a 15 point penalty, with that of clubs in an 
equivalent position (again, having already factored the loss of points) 
minus an additional 15 points? For the comparison to have any merit or 
relevance, surely you'd need to start your comparison with the team in top 
spot in each division, and then measure the impact of a hypothetical 
penalty, knowing full well that they'd likely breached none of the rules 
that leeds did when earning the said 15-point penalty.

Either way, I'm not remotely sure what you were trying to achieve. No matter 
how many points leeds were on, there would still be at least 44 teams above 
you, none of them too likely to be troubled by the likes of Carlisle...

No. The logic in your original reasoning was flawed, as I am sure you would 
realise if you read it back objectively.

I don't know why I expected you to be man enough to admit as much...

Poor attempt at sophistry. It wasn't my article. Simple as that.
