Well obviously I can see that. But this pointless discussion was initiated when you said:
And that simply isn't true. Any single extra point from anywhere would have done the job. And anyway, we were actually bitterly unlucky not to beat Burnley at home and Derby away. You make it sound...
This is complete clap trap. You could cherry-pick us an extra point from ANYWHERE and we'd have gone up. So how exactly does quoting Burnley, Derby or Sheff Wed (when as discussed, only 1 top six team took more points from us than the other way round) prove your point?
And as discussed, only one of the top six took more points off us than the other way round. So you've just made his point for him. Your point simply doesn't stand up.
