40/1 on SkyBet, some money to be made there.
We'll all have a lovely few months if that comes off.

That's a somewhat strange reply and rather personal... I stated a likely tongue in cheek outcome with a pun - Not making the play-offs due to train strikes. I stated a fact - Town may make the POs. One of us will be correct. Your slug/handle/TEF name is ''Steak supper'' {the lowercase part of your second name is marginally triggering but hey ho}. I asked what might be deemed a very relevant and simple question to you - What variety of steak do you use for your supper? Wtf is aggressively strange about that? And you stating ''Let's see'' ...let's see what? I think you've totally misinterpreted my first statement and missed the pun, plus failed in an basic comprehension of how words are used in a sentence {I mean, it wasn't even overly clever or cryptic - just a basic play on words}. If a poster named ''Steak supper'' doesn't know what steak they have for their supper then there definitely is something wrong. After my Sean scores 6 {six} goals for Yeovil, against Wealdstone tomorrow, I know full well what he'll be having for his supper. And no it's not crab paste ye cheeky mare. But if ya want sum - I'll give it ya. |

You want to give me your crab paste ? I am not up to speed with your vernacular . sounds like something I probably wouldn't want to eat thanks . Interesting offer though . |

Well, that didn't help. With the games left number shrinking, we're looking at quite big swings with every result. Genuinely in "win every game" territory now for the playoffs, and need a pretty good run to beat the Beamish line. - We have 14 games left this season
- We currently have 38 points from 32 games, at 1.19 PPG
- Last season, we achieved 54 points from 46 games at 1.17 PPG
- The last ten games, we're running at 1.8 PPG (DWLDWWWWDL)
- We need 1.21 PPG from here to beat the mark and reach 55 points
- Stretch goal: get to 60 points to beat the Beamish Line too: we'd need 1.57 PPG
- Wild hope: get to 73 points for the average last playoff spot, we'd need 2.5 PPG
Remaining games are: (current league positions) Chesterfield (H) - 10th Walsall (A) - 1st Salford (H) - 8th Doncaster (A) - 6th Cheltenham (H) - 13th Accrington (H) - 21st Morecambe (A) - 23rd Wimbledon (H) - 2nd Fleetwood (A) - 14th Bradford (H) - 3rd Grimsby (A) - 9th Bromley (H) - 11th Gillingham (A) - 19th MK (H) - 16th |

Less bullish about my prediction we'll breeze past the beamish line while still falling well short of the play offs.
I'm hopeful we'll just about get over the beamish line, but still confident we'll be comfortably better than the morfuni mark.

Another three points in the bank. - We have 13 games left this season
- We currently have 41 points from 33 games, at 1.24 PPG
- Last season, we achieved 54 points from 46 games at 1.17 PPG
- The last ten games, we're running at 2.0 PPG (WLDWWWWDLW)
- We need 1.07 PPG from here to beat the mark and reach 55 points
- Stretch goal: get to 60 points to beat the Beamish Line too: we'd need 1.46 PPG
- Wild hope: get to 73 points for the average last playoff spot, we'd need 2.46 PPG
Remaining games are: (current league positions) Walsall (A) - 1st Salford (H) - 9th Doncaster (A) - 2nd Cheltenham (H) - 11th Accrington (H) - 21st Morecambe (A) - 23rd Wimbledon (H) - 3rd Fleetwood (A) - 14th Bradford (H) - 5th Grimsby (A) - 8th Bromley (H) - 10th Gillingham (A) - 19th MK (H) - 17th Next four games are properly hard, and we probably need 9 points from them to keep the season alive. Good luck! Intriguing thing for me now is whether we might be able to contribute to a relegation in either of our last two games - seems unlikely, but what a dream. |

I think even getting to 60 points is a tall order and a great achievement considering the start we had.

I'd love to send Franchise down last game. Definitely unlikely but would be superb.

Based on current projections (which of course isn't what will happen, but it's all we've got to work with) we'd probably need 75 points to make the playoffs. The maximum we can get is 80. Realistically we can afford to drop points in 2, maybe 3 games, and win the rest.
It just isn't going to happen. I never felt it was likely. Getting to 60 points and finishing top half would be a realistic goal and a pretty decent achievement given where we were not that long ago.
