Did you actually read my posts in response to your stats? Please do, then we'll talk.
It's not that stats mean nothing, it's that they can be misused. You have misused them to try and make a point which is clearly wrong. I've explained why several times.
In response to Slacker I don't know what stat shows we're in decline. Did we get fewer points last year than the year before? Yes. But if you look at the points we got from 2003/4 on:
90
83
67
68
83
72
75
68
There are two years of clear decline and then a fairly flat line. There's no clear downward or upward trend. What there is is stagnation.
