If we take each match as a comparison replacing the promoted and relegated teams with those directly replacing them ...
After 1 match we are +1 point, +3 GD and -1 GF.
Today's match Forest Green replace Gillingham who we beat 0-4 away so we that is our "par" score.
Of course, we won't improve/match every result all season but overall we need to be up something like 20 points by the end of the season.
I will try to keep tabs on this after each match. |  |

I like this take on tracking our performances, interesting and shouldn't be over analysed as obviously every other team changes in their strength and quality so isn't a true like for like, but it's fun, keep it up! |  | | |

This comparison really highlights just how desperate last season’s start was. We were way off the pace before the season got going. |  | | |

The matches that I am comparing are from across last season and not just the start. I am amazed as I do it by how many opportunities there are to improve. I really hadn't appreciated how frequently we were dropping points in matches. | |

 We're already par for last season from the Sheff Wed (A), Plymouth (A) and Portsmouth (H) games - any points from the next 2 games keeps us well on target. |  |

I think that is our first result that equaly matches last season's.
10 matches:
+14 pts, GD +14, GF +4.
One point off top, equal record with 3rd who have a game in hand. A long way to go.
Par score for next week 0-0.
A big month coming up. | |

Think this thread deserves more views, as it's an excellent tracker on how we've progressed since last season
So I'll be replying to your posts with our projected total based on current PPG / GPG...

Still a point behind Plymouth who are relentlessly picking up points like all the top 7 did at the end of last season. I will happily take second behind Plymouth (the Mariner dream table) in May. It would be a nice comeback for them from the disappointment of 80 pts not making the play-offs too. At the end of the day, we need to worry about picking up points ourselves and the rest will worry about itself. An excellent start to this big month. COYB!

And to think we were worried whether we could score enough goals at the start of the season!
Plymouth still 1 point ahead but opening a little gap to some behind us.
Par score for Saturday 2-0. Feels like a while since we have had a win as a par score! | |

Winning the league as opposed to finishing second is only something i'll start thinking about if we get to the stage where 3rd place can't catch us. Until then it's about the teams below us |  | | |

I would be delighted to go up in second place behind Plymouth. It is all about promotion and the combination of us two would be the Mariner dream. | |

Don't want to be a wet blanket, but portsmouth have 2 games in hand.
Others, not far off, have one.
We just need to keep going as we are tho. Fingers crossed! |  |

Sorry, are we saying we only got 9 points last season from the same set of fixtures (or equivalent)? [Post edited 8 Oct 2022 17:13]

If they win both they are 2 points behind.
Of course, there is a long way to go but I would always rather the points in the bag than the games in hand. | |

Sure, but I'm not gonna be able to enjoy the gap unless it gets to at least 10 points!
It's self-protection given some of our previous history  | |

I will enjoy it when it gets Mathematically impossible for us to be caught for second place.
Absolutely recent history teaches us caution. It does feel very different this time. | |

Christ, it's hard to believe we were even talking about the playoffs at any point that season.
Thanks for pulling together. I hadn't looked at this thread for a while and found myself questioning whether we really were as bad as the numbers suggest. | | | |

Disappointing not to have made anything of the battering we gave Lincoln in the second half today. The most disappointing aspect is their keeper didn't have a save to make (except in the first half). Important to get back to winning ways on Friday.
Par score for Friday 0-2. | |
