Points required update thread

[Bohinen]

Yeovil's loss tonight doesn't change the overall picture other than bring them more into the mix. The current status is as follows with the amendment that I've rounded UP rather than just rounded the projections, so another point to find.

Date	Games Left	Requirement	Pts/Game	Target
31/01/19	17	47	1.53	Morecambe
02/02/19	16	47	1.56	Morecambe
10/02/19	15	46	1.40	Morecambe

To put that into perspective, 1.4 points per game is 64.4 over a season. Last year that would have made us 11th (Newport) or 12th (Cambridge), so it's not promotion or even play off form that's needed from now on in, just mid table form. Still, some margin for error would be nice.

Like you said, whilst I was typing.

Apparently we are predicted to finish bottom!

Wow! That's only 2 more wins and 4 more draws for the rest of the season!!! What's encouraging is 4 more wins and 4 more draws sees us safe!!!

It also has us not winning in the next 6 games. Can anyone see that being the case?

Just done a prediction league online and have us finishing 20th on 48 pts. Morecambe and Port Vale going down but I do have us as beating Vale at home so if they got a draw against us it would be Yeovil for the drop.

Means bugger all I know but it killed a few minutes whilst troughing on my porridge this morning.

Win our game in hand and we're out of the relegation zone. Put more pressure on those around us. Who would have thought that a few weeks ago!!

I believe it was pretty much only me

Fair play swaley you did. I don’t think even you would have forecast such an incredible transformation in the team in the space of a few weeks.

We’re still bottom of the table but I don’t think relegation is even an issue now. Tbh I’m a bit frustrated that we didn’t have this team at the start of the season. The table would be looking very different.
