That's how euro-sports types keep track of who's winning in the league, rather than like in the US where we typically go by the win percentage, ie #wins/#games. They award points to the team for each win and each tie, in this case 2 points for a win and 1 point for a tie. At the end of the regular season, team with the most points wins, or moves into the playoffs, etc.

Indeedy! Thats the way its running, its more legible and easier to understand for everyone if I have a point system-I for one didnt understand the win/loss ratio untill I started following Baseball in the US.

Ok, but that still doesn't explain how Jmac's 4/0/2 record is worth less points than our 4/0/2 record... :spinner
