Why is distrance from relegation a thing, forgive me but I don't get it

we was never going down, I guess we're safe now at least.

Lightly touched on it in the OP, but because we were in a patch of relegation-esque form in the first half of the season, just like Klopp's Dortmund in his final year with that club - no "real" reason, just something about that appealed to an element of completeness in me when I first made the thread.

As the season progresses I'll likely add distance from another position instead / as well.

fair enough, just thought it was a bit strange, as we was never going to be as bad as man utd last season

makes sense.
