The path ahead, updated post-Preston 17:01 - Oct 7 with 786 views | JimInGreensboro | Post-Preston, based on ten-year averages in the Championship, here’s what we would need to do the rest of the way to reach the play-offs or earn automatic promotion: Play-offs: 1.314 points per match from the remaining 35 matches. • That's 46 more points for a total of 74 (ten-year playoff average) • Example: win 13, draw 7, lose 15 (worst case scenario) Automatics: 1.771 ppm. • That's 62 more points from 35 matches for a total of 90 (ten-year automatic promotion average) • Ex: win 18, draw 8, lose 9 Goal differentials notwithstanding. We are presently on a 2.545 point per match pace and have 17 home matches and 18 away matches remaining. |  | | |  |
