If there's not time to play those games maybe we can just promote everyone and have 39 teams in the Championship. Makes about as much sense.
If there's not time to play those games maybe we can just promote everyone and have 39 teams in the Championship. Makes about as much sense.It'd be 13 teams then as Rotherham would be in there too.
They said the top two would go up automatically, no idea why. Mad proposal that won't happen.If I understand the proposal, points would be in the following statistical average
Coventry (1.97 ppg)
High - (1.97 + 0.12805 = 2.09805)
Low - (1.97 - 0.107365 = 1.862635)
Rotherham (1.771 ppg)
High - (1.771 + 0.115115 = 1.886115)
Low - (1.771 - 0.0965195 = 1.6744805)
Wycombe (1.735 ppg)
High - (1.735 + 0.112775 = 1.847775)
Low - (1.735 - 0.0945575 = 1.6464425)
That means only we would get automatic promotion because our low ppg is higher than Wycombes high ppg, but rotherham's isn't
I took that to mean that only teams in the automatic places after the formula was applied would get promoted, but it doesn't matter as it's a stupid idea anyway.They said the top two would go up automatically, no idea why. Mad proposal that won't happen.
The way their defence socially distance themselves they're not likely to get itI think they need one more win to be mathematically safe from the most in form team of League1 - Tranmere.
Fuck it let's go all the way back to 48 B.C.Why the last 3 seasons, why not 5 or 10? You'd end up with a huge tournament replacing the play offs followed by a season with extra teams in some divisions when you're likely to have less time to play it!
Problem is if you start going down this road every club will put up different ways of calculating things that suit them best, no chance of everyone agreeing.
Yeah I had a look at that the other week, think I posted it on this thread.So what they’re saying is “How accurate would a PPG calculation taken at this stage of the season have been in the past?”
You take the average of the difference between the PPG calculation after game 34/35 and the final points tally for the last few seasons. This gives you a margin of error, any team that is promoted/playoffs/relegated by more than that margin would get that. Everyone within the margin of the playoffs goes into a tournament. Everyone within the margin of safety (Tranmere) stays up.
City would go up under it. You can’t produce a table because there’s no final places, everyone has an error bar that could move them up/down. Well you could say it’s the PPG table, but with different cut off points for promotion/relegation that depend on the PPG of teams around you.
City would be promoted, 2 to where ever would Play a tournament for the last two places. Southend and Bolton go down.
Before Covid ?Fuck it let's go all the way back to 48 B.C.
Sure Tranmere can come up with a statistical case for us being promoted straight into the PL from League 1The more I see this stuff the more convinced I am that we can get into the Premiership after only a few seasons in the Championship.

Doesn’t matter which way you look at it...Coventry will be champions.

LOL
“Under both average points per game and our predicted table, Tranmere are the final side to drop to League Two - in 67.5% of models, Rovers finish third from bottom.”
WHERE IS YOUR MATHS GOD NOW TRANMERE??
Does that mean Zimbabwe could be promoted?Tranmere's proposal is seriously strange and makes elections for countries with dictatorships, where they gain 110% of the vote look positively fair. :woot:
Straight to the Champions League knock out stage!Does that mean Zimbabwe could be promoted?
They were in good form but had a wretched run of fixtures to playI do have some sympathy with Tranmere - they’d likely have stayed up but in the end there is no perfect solution and there will be winners and losers out of this

Rhodesia are disputing that.Does that mean Zimbabwe could be promoted?
That can be easily fixed with a vote.Rhodesia are disputing that.
Isn't it strange though, a few weeks ago Sky supposedly did a similar exercise and had us winning only one of our remaining games and finishing 3rd. Experts!!Doesn’t matter which way you look at it...Coventry will be champions.
