    1/150 on to get promoted on bet356.
  • Oggy RedOggy Red
    Looking at that predicted table, then 6 more points for promotion.
    And 12 more points for the title.

    But of course, promotions are not won by predictions!
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    5 wins from 11 remaining matches for the magic 93.
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    Can't sleep so thought I'd put up a table so we can graphically cross off, as and when, those teams that can't mathematically catch us.

    Charlton
    Sheff Utd
    Sheff Wed
    Huddersfield
    MK Dons
    Notts County
    Carlisle
    Stevenage

    Leyton Orient
    Yeovil
    Scunthorpe
    Walsall
    Tranmere
    Exeter
    Wycombe
    Chesterfield
    Rochdale

    9 down, 14 to go

    What you must remember is that in the book, the 3 films and the TV adaption the journey for Hannay was never straight forward but it always turned out alright in the end.

    our current form doesn't, at the moment, suggest that we're going to win too many games, but hopefully at least one of the Sheffield clubs will drop enough points so that another half dozen points could be enough.

    Indeed Len, even better.

    Will be down to 4 on Saturday evening if we win and Carlisle and Stevenage both lose. If that does happen we'll be guranteed a Play-Off place at least.

    Two wins & two draws for the magical 93 points from the last six games.
  • Oggy RedOggy Red
    Are we the 1st team in all divisions to have qualified for at least the playoffs?

    If so, some achievement to do so before the end of March.

    Lowest we can finish now is 5th ......unless Carlisle can make up 41GD.

    If you are talking goal difference MK Dons can only get 85 points too so one could rashly, in the euphoria of today's victory, say 4th!

    And the then there were just three:

    Charlton
    Sheff Utd
    Sheff Wed
    Huddersfield
    MK Dons
    Notts County
    Carlisle
    Stevenage
    Brentford
    Colchester

    Bournemouth
    Oldham
    Preston
    Bury
    Leyton Orient
    Yeovil
    Scunthorpe
    Walsall
    Tranmere
    Exeter
    Wycombe
    Chesterfield
    Rochdale
    One Win and Two Draws for the 93 points and meaning that Wednesday (because of our vastly superior GD) would have to win all five of their remaining matches to overhaul us.

  • Chirpy RedChirpy Red
    Robert Donat, Kenneth Moore, Robert Powell, Rupert Penry-Jones, Barry Foster, Patrick Barr.......

    WE DID IT!
  • Addick AddictAddick Addict
    That would give us a total of 93 points and almost certainly Promotion. The highest 2nd place total in the last 20 years for League 1 was Southampton's tally of 92 last season with the average being 86 (32 needed) and the lowest 79 (just 25 required).

    To put it another way, at worst, if we win all of the remaining 12 home games and just one away from the Valley we can afford to lose all of the other 9 matches.

    COYR you know you can do it!





    93 points was indeed the target. Ask Sheffield United who would have been promoted on GD ;-)
