Elimination Table and Docs colourful chart

[Balham Green]

If only we had picked up draws in our bad run we would have been top. Yeah i know the word if.

The point IS that run is in complete contrast to the rest of the season which is play off form. Even with relegation form .5 point a game in that run we would be in a good position now.

Well well well something I actually agree with u on.

Sorry Doctor, I do prefer Ottawa’s version. No offence

It Is just simpler, and easier to read, not complicated

Although yours is extremely interesting.

I find both charts fascinating...and will enjoy watching them change over the weeks to come.

Thank you

Here you go...

Number next to team name is goal difference ('==' means same as Argyle, '++' means better than Argyle. Length of solid colour bar corresponds to points, length of paler colour bar is available points (so total length of coloured bar is max points for that team). Number on pale coloured bar is goal difference relative to Argyle.

Thanks Doc, this version is so much easier to read than the hashtag thingy, especially when viewing on my phone.

Hey Doc , Loving the discreet way that you have spelled ARG YLE ala the Mayflower seats , which really irks a lot of people especially me..

Well i am a lady of a certain age & i am totally confused- can you do the table in plain english or say this is where we will finish if we carry on as we are : :?

Lady the current League table is at the bottom of each page.

The lady would like to know where we finish if we carry on as we are which is a very good question. Anybody got the patience and skills to input current form in to the equation?. That would be more interesting. Such a shame we had that 6 game run where we lost the plot. Just 2 or 3 points would make a big difference.

I've just had a quick go at this.

PPG Last 8

Based on points per game over the past eight matches we would finish sixth. Peterborough would win the league and Oxford would finish second, while Lincoln, Doncaster and Hull would join us in the playoffs. Portsmouth would miss out by a point.

Rochdale, Wigan, Wimbledon and Northampton would go down. Burton (who are currently bottom) would survive, as would Swindon - who were awful when we played them and lost their best players in January.

PPG Entire Season

Based on points per game over the season as a whole we would finish 13th and miss out on the playoffs by miles - more than 12 points. Gaining an extra point or two in the six-match losing run wouldn't have been enough - we'd have needed something like two wins and two draws out of that run to have made the playoffs.

Lincoln and Peterborough would finish in the top two with Doncaster, Hull, Portsmouth and Accrington in the playoffs. Northampton, Swindon, Wigan and Burton (the current bottom four) go down.

Essentially we need to continue automatic promotion form to make the playoffs.

 

[Keith Whitfield]

Following on from last year's end of proceedings, I have occasionally calculated points per game to try and show a sort of level playing field at a point (put not intended) in time. One based on the last six, eight or nine games would be a useful development of that. Not downplaying the value of the elimination table or Doc's thingy, but a useful addition might be a recent form points-per-game table.

 

[pafcdje]

In the first 11 games we had 19 points and from the 11 games after the 6 consecutive defeats we have won 22 points .

So ignoring the 6 consecutive games , 41 points from 22 games , which is close to automatic promotion form . Taking that form over the next 18 games results in a final total of 75 points . In an average year 75 points scrapes into the last playoff place .

That's fine - it's not compulsory to like one or other or both of these formats! OG's is more text/number based and mine is more visual - different people often get more out of looking at things in one way or another. Just enjoy looking at whatever you want to look at!

[mervyn]

Just an observation with the bottom four all losing today. If they all maintain their current points per game average, safety could be achieved with only 45 points. Has the bar ever been that low before?

It's a bit on the small side Doc, can you post it the same size as the one on page 2? Ta.
