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.
