Thank you. Your sleepless nights help keep the stats on an even-ish keel!

I'm also rather pleased that you have only needed to highlight errors seven times after 26+ games. A vast improvement by me compared to previous seasons!

Actually I've only looked at the spreadsheets seven times this season.

PPG comparison summary table: Number of games played is it 27 or 28? Either way the PPG & Actual positions for the 20/21 Same Games are wrong.

The 20/21 "same games" and "same teams" games played are one fewer than the 21/22 total as we have played Dover - and last year we didn't. When we next play Dover, the difference will increase to two.

I guess I could have done it differently, but I didn't. And when we get promotion.... I'll just get extra supplies of red wine and whisky!

A generally good performance against one of the weakest teams I've seen this season.

Now looking for a St David's day rout of a team owned by a Dracula look-alike.

Minor point, the Magic Number to ensure a Play Off place is presently 45 not 44, I'm sure you will appreciate why without me explaining.

Coincidently, 45 is the exact number of points available from our remaining games, not that there is any correlation between these figures.

I beg to differ! To ensure a playoff place, we must finish above the 8th place team based on maximum possible points. On PPG, that team is currently 7th (Solihull) but the current 8th place team (Bromley) have the higher potential maximum possible.

You may beg to differ but that doesn't mean you are right. Nowhere in the clarification of the Magic Number does it mention PPG positioning and I quote the clause in case you haven't yet read it (BTW 'assuming' has only got 1 'a').Therefore to be assured of a Playoff qualification we need a further 45 points.

There are 4 magic numbers to indicate what is needed to guarantee automatic promotion, secure a bye to playoff SF, secure a playoff QF spot or avoid relegation. It's a
number which should decrease steadily (rapidly would be nice!) through the season. It is derived from opponents' maximum possible points, our current points and our games
remaining.
e.g. to guarantee a playoff spot we need 1 point more than the maximum that the 8th placed team can get if they win all their remaining games (aasuming we are in the top 7 - if not then we need to beat the7th placed team).

If you want to rewrite your rules midway through the season, O.K. but all we punters really want is consistency throughout the season.
