Sorry, stevo, I didn't explain myself clearly. When I said "I don't consider 4 out of 5 to be a pass mark" I didn't mean that 4 out of 5 wouldn't be sufficient to satisfy me. I mean that I don't set the bar for passing that high. Hence, three out of five would be acceptable in my eyes. I'd certainly like to win all 5/5, and I think that's possible. But I won't grumble if we should only win 3 out of those 5 (depending also on the quality of our performances and any explanatory factors).
