Re: Promoted
If Northampton and Bradford draw when they play they could both end up with 84 points. Would be then down to goal difference. We have better goal difference at the moment but we lost our remaining games that may not be the case. So not actually promoted yet.

Re: Promoted
If we lose 5 game each has to be by one goal and Bradford win 4 and draw one.......
Not going to happen but not actually up yet.
5 more points and we are definitely champions.

Re: Promoted
Did someone say "mathematical certainty"
Still one point needed - but only if all the other results fall as shown above for Northampton and Bradford - and they both overtake us in goal difference
(which would be likely if we lost 5 matches and they won their remaining matches by a couple of goals (except the draw, of course))

Re: Promoted
As I understand it, Tuffets objection to your point would be “but all the other results won’t fall as shown above”

I've given up trying to fathom what his objection is, to be honest. It's maths, it either is or it isn't.

It's an extremely high probability, certainly, just not a certainty !B.whitehouse+10more wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 1:07 pm More like a mathematical probability…..up the O’s
