Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: Fred Elliot on Friday, April 27, 2007, 15:56:44 Could any of you lot tell me what the % is of the highest positioned team of the 4 that enter the play offs actually getting promoted ?
Just a thought like Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: Northern Red on Friday, April 27, 2007, 15:58:30 I know in recent years it's about 50% get promoted after finishing last in the play-offs (7th place in League 2, 6th in League 1)
Usually due to the fact that they qualify late and are on a run of form Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: Fred Elliot on Friday, April 27, 2007, 16:26:48 mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hopefully Dongs will finish 4th and get dumped out by the team that finishes 7th then Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: STFC_Manc on Friday, April 27, 2007, 17:27:55 I have worked this out, over the last 3 seasons.
Championship - 05/06 - 3rd, 04/05 - 6th, 03/04 - 6th. League one - 05/06 - 5th, 04/05 - 5th, 03/04 - 4th. League two - 05/06 - 4th, 04/05 - 3rd, 03/04 - 3rd. 3rd place would have a 33% chance of going up, 4th place has an 22% chance, 5th place has an 22% chance of going up and 6th place has a 22% chance. (League 2 I have given the top p/o place as 3rd) Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: reeves4england on Friday, April 27, 2007, 18:22:12 Basically, it could go to any of the teams in it!!!
I think Franchise have a good chance as they are a decent team compared to the rest of the division. I would quite LIKE to see Rovers go up so we have a local game next year whether City go up or completely mess it up!

Overall: No1 seed: 21 promotions (41.1%); No2 seed: eight promotions (15.6%); No3 seed: 11 promotions (21.5%); No4 seed: 11 promotions (21.5%). unfortunately that bodes well for the dongs from: http://football.guardian.co.uk/theknowledge/story/0,,1756100,00.html#article_continue Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, April 27, 2007, 19:16:12 It's pot fucking luck.
Each team has a 25% chance. Easy as that. Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: reeves4england on Friday, April 27, 2007, 19:19:56 Quote from: "sam_stfc" It's pot fucking luck. As was clearly disproven by the previous post :DEach team has a 25% chance. Easy as that. Title: FTAO: Any Stato types Post by: janaage on Friday, April 27, 2007, 19:37:50 We were the first 5th place club to gain promotion via the play offs, if I remember correctly, 1992/93 season.
Personally I think Shrews or Rovers will go up. |
