Negan Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 but am I right in thinking we will be Promoted against Swindon if we win and crowned Champions at Preston if we avoid defeat? providing the gaps still remain 10 and 14? Sorry if this has been said elsewhere, had a quick look at the threads but couldn't find anything. April 7th 1.

Cider red Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 If we win at Oldham and beat them, they draw at Mk in-between, we will be 19 points ahead with them having 21 to play for. Preston will have 15 to play for after we play them, but could be the game we go up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Bit early for my fully functional maths brain but Swindon still have 7 games left after us - so 21 points available And Preston have I think 5 games after us - so 15 points available So I think The answer is no ? In both cases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 No, if the gap remains 14 to Swindon at the point we play them, then we would move 17 clear of them with a win - but they would still have a further 7 games and 21 points to play for.

Ah.... but if we beat them we're as good as promoted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Looking at the table it's clear why it's so hard to grind out those last points at this stage of the season Everyone bar Yeovil could in theory gain enough points for the play offs ! And only us, Preston and Swindon are mathematically safe from relegation ! Everyone still has plenty to play for and focus is at it's highest just around now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 We won't need to be 21 points clear of Swindon for promotion. We will need to be uncatchable by 3rd place, but I don't think that can be the case until after we've played preston. That's without actually working it all out in detail though, so not really much help at all! :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
