At one point today the AFC fans were 'weh' -ing every pass as they knocked it around the back under zero pressure. When we got the ball back again the Cowshed tried to do the same but the ball went out of play before we could string three passes together. Says it all really.

Anything less than 12 and we are in a relegation battle especially as 3 of those games are against teams below us.

11 points from our next 8 games would be comfortable mid-table form, while those really in the relegation battle will only average 9 points or fewer from their next 8 games...

Scunny A L
Rotherham A L
Plymouth H W
Peatboghorror H D
Oxford A L
KFC H W
Norfampton A D
Rotherham H W
would do it with 11 points from those games.

Given that we're 5 points above the relegation battle atm, to be dragged towards it we'd need to get 6 points or fewer while those really in it get 9 points or more over the next 8 games, imho.

One point better off than expected, after the Scunthorpe & Rotherham away games...

Two points worse off than expected after the first three games - not confident we'll even get 5 points from our next 5 games now, let alone 10 on current form...

Back on target after the first four games then - merely a small misalignment in the prediction sequence... ;) :lol:

Same number of points as expected after the Oxford away game...

Two points worse off than expected after six games - not optimistic we'll get 6 points from our next 2 games on current form...

Leaving aside the hysteria, bedwetting & gnashing of teeth elsewhere on TCR, here are the updated relevant stats.

Over the last 6/7 league games (four games played last weekend), the current bottom half clubs have secured the following number of points:

13. Plymouth: 15pts - were 22nd... (P7) = 2.14ppg
14. Gillingham: 14pts - were 21st... (P6) = 2.33ppg
15. Walsall: 5pts - were 11th...(P6) = 0.83ppg
16. Blackpool: 6pts - were 13th (P7) = 0.86ppg
17. Bristol R: 6pts - were 15th (P6) = 1.0 ppg
18. Southend: 3pts - were 12th... (P7) = 0.43ppg
19. MK Dons: 5pts - were 17th (P6) = 0.83ppg
20. Oldham: 3pts - were 16th... (P7) = 0.43ppg
-----------------------------------------
21. Cobblers: 10pts - were 23rd... (P7) = 1.43ppg
22. AFC: 8pts - were 20th (p6) = 1.33ppg
23. Rochdale: 2pts - were 19th... (P6) = 0.33ppg
24. Bury: 0pts - still 24th (P7) = 0.0 ppg

Gillingham & Plymouth have averaged an automatic-promotion-like 2+ pts per game, to climb out & away from the relegation zone.
Cobblers have averaged an impressive 1.4pts per game.
AFC have averaged a solid upper mid-table-like 1.3 pts per game.

Walsall, Blackpool, Bristol & MK Dons have averaged a relegation-struggle-like 0.8-1.0 pts per game.

Bury, Rochdale, Oldham & Southend have averaged an even worse automatic-relegation-like 0 to 0.4pts per game.

If things continued on like this, Oldham & Southend would drop into the relegation zone to join Rochdale & Bury.

Southend however, have sacked their manager this week.
"This season, to date, has been a disappointment" said the club, after suffering seven defeats in their past eight League One matches, and sliding towards the relegation zone.
Will Southend benefit from the "new-manager boost" over the next ten games or so, as often happens? Time will tell.

Whatever happens, it makes the Cobblers game an even more important "must not lose" game.

COYD!

Great stuff! I agree, Southend changing their manager is a worry and a win at the wobblers is crucial.

I don't care anymore if we go down. I just want us to finish above KFC Kingston-upon-Thames.

What if we stay up? I want him gone either way. I just don't care anymore about moaning about it. Nothing will change. Even if we get a new manager. The root of the problem is far deeper than Neilson.

No I mean the lack of a Koi Carp pond and Sensory Garden by the club shop.
