It seems to me there are 5 clearly leading teams in this division - Stockport, Mansfield, Wrexham, us, & Barrow. 3 of these will go up automatically and 2 be doomed to the playoffs, so (at least) one will miss out completely. I think we'd need a really awful collapse not to make the playoffs now - 67 was enough in 2012 - something over 80 should just about get 3rd anyway. But it was just points we were asked to predict.
I think you do - they've crept up intp the mix almost unnoticed - cleraly in better form than Barrow right now. Unless someone's form collapses badly it does look like all the rest (Harrogate, Morecambe etc) are competing for one place in the playoffs. Morecambe are the one team we haven't ye seen of course - we should know more about them on Saturday week.
[QUOTE=MikeSB;40452373]Nobody has said what these predictions mean?
No, you're right. But then when I asked the same question at about the same time last season, I wasn't asking we'd be relegated or whatever, just points. Points mean different things in different seasons depending how competitive a league is.
Anyway, the question is just for a bit of fun! Try it!
ITM, there are still a few people unwilling to stick their necks out. I'll close the list on Sunday after the Notts County game.
Dont know about points predictions but automatic promotion is still on the cards and that is all that matters.
Despite the spoilsports, I am revising upwards. Now saying 81 points.
