DoDTS
The PL League Boss⭐⭐
I was talking to DtS last night and discussing just how much of a formality it is that we will reach a minimum of the plays offs? Anyone who was scarred for life by the collapse of 1968 will take nothing for granted but the stats are as follows;
Looking at League 2 for the last ten years, the club to grab the last play off spot gained an average of 71 points the highest being in 2007-8 with 78 points the lowest 66 points in 2005-6.
Using these statistics we currently have 56 points and from our remaining 16 games we would need:
A minimum of 10 more points, (3 wins and a draw)
A maximum of 22 points (7 wins and a draw)
Probably 15 points would be enough, (5 wins).
It would take a really bad downturn of form to miss the minimum or the average, and mediocre form would be sufficient to reach the maximum, but nothing is guaranteed. .
To my mind let’s get past the 71 point mark an then start worrying about the automatic places.
