well, in theory, it is true. You play, to win, the championship. - groiny Jul 1, 14:13 8
- right, so if only the championship matters, having a win/loss outcome in each game is not necessary. - znufrii Jul 1, 14:19 7
  - in order to win, the teams with best records get in, right? - groiny Jul 1, 14:22 6
    - in soccer it's 3 points for a win, 1 for a tie -- nm - znufrii Jul 1, 14:26 3
      - and yes, highest score at the end of the season gets the trophy -- nm - znufrii Jul 1, 14:27 2
        
        which is poopies. You want the team that wins the most games to get in, not the one who plays to tie. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 1, 14:28 1
        
        You play 38 matches in the EPL....you need roughly 30-35 points to guarantee you get to stay in the EPL. The champs are usually around 80 iirc - Hunta Jul 1, 14:32
