RightResult.net
By Chris O'Brien September 25 2007
ManUtdWeb has teamed up with RightResult.net to bring you a different look at the Premier League table. How would it look if referee's never made mistakes? Right Result's panel studies all the injustices from the league's matches and works out who should be top of the pile and who should be fighting down the bottom. How different does the league table look?


The Right Result - Football's bad decisions and incidents

ManUtdWeb are delighted to team up with RightResult.net to bring our visitors an exciting feature.

The Right Result web-site was developed by football supporters who had seen enough of bad decisions affecting the outcome of matches up and down the country.

ManUtdWeb has always been cautious about the possible introduction of video technology for Premier League games - but RightResult.net are staking the case with their clever league table that shows the division in "the way it ought to be".

The web-site's panel select the key injustices that happen each week during the Premiership season. Then, using the laws of football, judge how the results of these games should have ended up and calculate the 'RightResult' Premier League table.

Above is the 'mini-version' of the table; and the for the complete table you just simply need to click on it.

Right Result? They can´t even get their own table right! Chelsea on 11 points BELOW 3 teams on 10!

Interesting concept though - although "Right Result" is still probably not a correct term.

Looking at it from a selfish viewpoint (i.e. Chelsea) how would you account for pschological factors after a goal has been scored? For example: Chelsea lost at Villa Park 2-0 but at 0-0, SWP should have had a pen. If we had scored the penalty, how would both Chelsea and Villa players reacted after the goal? Would Villa had gone on to score 2 more goals? Would Chelsea players, at 0-1 up, been calmer and more composed? Would Villa players heads gone down?

Anfield - no way should we have had a penalty to equalise. But if the ref had allowed play to go on, would Drogba, alone in the 18 yard box recieving the ball, scored anyway? Maybe yes maybe no....who knows.

Our match at Old Trafford: WouldMikel NOT getting sent off meant that we may have scored (you have to admit,we were looking very good before that happened). If Rooney would have gone then he would have had a ban - would that have meant that Man Utd would have been weaker in their next games and possibly dropped points?

Etc etc etc...

Agree with you that you never can have a right result. And also, that they take into account that penalties would be scored when you can never gamble on that.

However, I believe the points column shows how many points the team has - and the placing represents where they'd be in a RightResult world.

They judged Sunday's match as a 2-0 United win. They said Saha wasn't a penalty, but Cole's tackle was. They also said Mikel should have stayed but Cole should have gone.

It's not perfect, it never can be, but I reckon this is a top feature.
