After a 2-2 draw at Portsmouth we are going to beat Sheff Utd 5-3

And so far it has correctly predicted we would lose at home to West Brom...and that's it.

Math
16 is an even number, the fourth square number, and the fourth power of two. It's also the base of hexadecimal numbers. 16 is a rational number because it can be written as a fraction with a denominator of 1, such as 16/1.

History
The number 16 has historical associations in Ancient India, with the Chinese-Indian goddess Pussa, and with the Rosicrucians:
-In the Vedas, 16-fold incantations are mentioned.
-The goddess Pussa has 16 arms.
-The Rosicrucians believed that nature had 16 elements.

Numerology
In numerology, the number 16 is sometimes called the "Angel Number" and is said to represent personal growth, inner strength, and self-discovery. It's also believed to signify divine guidance and protection.

Tarot
In the tarot, the Tower card is associated with 16 and is said to represent misery, distress, indigence, adversity, calamity, disgrace, deception, and ruin.

Hebrew numerals
In Hebrew numerals, 16 is represented as ט״ז‎‎, which is 9 + 7. This is done to avoid using the two-letter combinations י-ה‎‎ and י-ו‎‎, which are alternate written forms for the Name of God.

Restaurant
Number 16 is also the name of a restaurant in Glasgow's West End that serves modern Scottish cooking.

....or it just means we're a bit crap.

Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

After the last 3 games a16th place finish to the season would be like living in the halls of Valhalla.

Where does the idea of the natural home of 16th come from? As far as I can see, we've only ever finished 16th once in the second tier and once in the first, going as far back as 1968/9.

I think Clive has been using it in more of a poetic sense to signify "any place in the table that has two digits and starts with a "1" but not including 10th, 11th or 12th.."

Immortalised by Bon Jovi:

Oh we're halfway there
Oh woah with Ilias Chair
Sixteenth place
We'll make it I'll swear
Oh oh with Ilias Chair

Blackburn relegated.... mmmmmmmmm

Before the season started I thought 10th to 16th
Like most I just expected the form to kick on with Marti having a whole pre-season to get them drilled and add a few canny signings

At this moment in time I'd say bottom of the stack.
Watched a fair few games and we look the least well equipped but I've yet to see Cardiv, PNE or Pompey kick a ball

Sixteenth would be sweet.

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal
