Your comments on this story...
i know maths was not your favourite subject, but let me make it easy for you. 3 games remaining = 9 points. Tuks 52 points at the moment and blackburn 46, meaning they are both fighting for 9 points. If on wednesday Tuks draw they will have 53 and Blackburn rovers lose the will remain at 46. now here is the sub A maths. 53-46 = 7 and remember there are only two games left. if they both win these games the can only get 6. tuks win the league by 1 point.
I can see your maths is good, but English was not your favorite subject either. Christopher should have said Tuks need a draw BUT must hope for blackburn to loose.
So what happens if tuks draw but blackburn wins?????? tuks will be on 53 and blackburn on 49. 3 points will be separating them, with 2 games left to play. do your maths again and tell me what will happen.
so El Kampion is right when he wants an explanation from Christopher.
University of Pretoria are just one point away from automatic promotion to the Premiership next season after they thrashed United FC 4-1.
can u read that??????????????? thats a copy and paste from Christopher's article. so before just making empty noise read the headline of the article. retard.

CAN U SEE THAT MARVELOUS?
53 -49 = 4..

THE POINT HERE MR IS THAT TUKS DO NOT NEED A POINT TO WIN PROMOTION.
IF YOU DO NOT SEE THAT THEN I REALLY CAN NOT WASTE MY TIME DEBATING WITH U......
