I always look at our rivals' scores. If a club like Wigan were suddenly to do a Bristol City or a Wolves, then we might not be able to compete with that, despite our doing really well.
Very important I think to look at other results and how many points we are in front of the team in 3rd place and 7th place etc. It's not just about how we do, it's about how other teams do as well.
We could have a really good season and still not go up, depending how other teams are doing.
Example:
2014/15 season, first place (Bristol) finished on 99 points, 2nd place 91 points, 3rd place 89 points.
2013/14 season, first place (Wolves) finished on 103 points, 2nd place 94 points., 3rd place 86 points, 4th place 86 points, 5th place 85 points.
2012/13 season, first place (Doncaster) finished on 84 points, 2nd place on 83 points.
In the 14/15 season Doncaster wouldn't have even made 3rd place. In the 13/14 season they wouldn't have even made 5th!
How other teams do is very relevant to our situation. Be fine if we were destined for 100 points, because if that was the case and we were that good, then what everyone else did wouldn't be totally irrelevant, but we are not that good are we.
Still think we can make top 2, but think it could be close this season, so seeing what our rivals are doing is most deifnitely a factor, as it gives us some insight as to how the season may well pan out.
