glensmad Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 It's that time of year when we start thinking about the points required for promotion and to avoid relegation. What do we reckon the safety mark will be this year, and what total will be required to get automatic promotion or the play-off spot ? Here are the maximum possible points for the teams as it stands at the moment :- 64 - Girvan 63 - Kilsyth Rangers 59 - Petershill 58 - Irvine Meadow XI, Shettleston 53 - Clydebank 50 - Cumbernauld United, Maryhill 49 - Rutherglen Glencairn 48 - Renfrew 46 - Yoker Athletic 42 - Shotts Bon Accord 39 - Blantyre Victoria 33 - Irvine Victoria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glensmad Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 The last five years the points for the 2nd placed automatic promotion spot have been 54, 53, 61, 50, 52. The last five years the points for the 3rd placed play-off spot have been 53, 49, 50, 45, 45. The last five years the points for the 10th place safety mark have been 31 (goal difference), 33, 31*, 35, 34 (goal difference). (* due to Kilwining being deducted points and subsequently relegated, otherwise it would have been 32). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShahktarYerMaw Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Presuming you did the same sort of analysis last year. Would be interesting to compare from that who in fact went up and who went down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that my team were on 17 points from 15 games at this point last year, and this year we're on 28 points from 19 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glensmad Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 So you did it cos ur team's doing better[emoji16] You may think that, but if you check back last season's thread (and the season before that, and the season before that) you'll realise that you're wrong.Again.

Cropped this from our programme from Saturday 9th April last year, biggest change after that was Greenock dropping like a stone, this year's bottom 4 are further adrift already.

glensmad Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 The interesting thing about that is that the fixtures seem much further on this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again. I've run the same exercise in our programme the last few years on the run up to the midweek madness - it doesn't take into account the odd team going on a late-season charge or collapsing, but it's normally not a million miles away, and gives a truer idea of how teams are actually doing when they've played wildly different amounts of games. Might use this for the programme for the next league game if that's okay - saves me working it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShahktarYerMaw Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Two out of the top three went up, and three out of the bottom four went down. Conspiracy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 The interesting thing about that is that the fixtures seem much further on this season. Definitely. 9 teams in that table had played 15 games or less, only Girvan and Maryhill match that this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
