I can actually figure out what it all stands for: Played, Wins, Draws, Losses, Goals scored (F), Goals conceded (A), Goal difference and Points (with 3 points for a Win, 1 for a Draw, 0 for a Loss).
However, what do F and A stand for? I had to look at some match statistics to deduce that F meant Goals Scored (their 6-1 and 4-1 wins add up). And how is GD a useful stat in determining the validity or potency of a team? i.e. Stoke City is 1-1-1 but they have a -2 GD, while Birmingham is also 1-1-1 but has a GD of 0. How would their identical W-D-L score be offset by their different GD numbers? I’m trying to better understand this ranking system. Thanks!
Oh yeah, Go Gunners!
as a gooner and as such a muppet not bad. good to see the cheating mancs have popped over you with the help of a classic own goal. taking into consideration the perfection that arsene hit that bottle he should be up front next week! always look on the bright side! once a gooner always a muppet!
if the points are the same…unlike muppet nothing better to do with their time staticians that follow handball in america.. aka … NFL . and rounders aka.. MLB … we are simple! if points are the same, its all down to goal difference .. only in spain do they submit to the boredom of exercising themselves over quantium mathematics to try to sort them out who wins the league. however….. as nobody after 38 games has ever had the same points and the same goal difference it has yet to be an issue! please contact the EPL to satisfy your curiosity. ps try praying to st. jude. thank you and stay out of jc! kiss!

F = for (goals scored for)
A = against (” ” against)
just a guess…
