Post-West Brom, 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: • 35 more points from our remaining 29 matches for a total of 74 (10-year play-offs average) o That’s an average of 1.207 points per match o Example: win 9, draw 8 lose 14 Automatics: • 51 more points from 29 matches for a total of 90 (ten-year automatic promotion average) o That’s an average of 1.759 points per match o Ex: win 14, draw 9, lose 8 Goal differentials notwithstanding. We are presently on a 2.294 point per match pace and have 15 home matches and 14 away matches remaining. | |
