I'm not sure how Football Manager works to be honest, but Sky Sports obviously deemed the prediction worthy of a web post.

Isn't it strange though, a few weeks ago Sky supposedly did a similar exercise and had us winning only one of our remaining games and finishing 3rd. Experts!!

I took that to mean that only teams in the automatic places after the formula was applied would get promoted, but it doesn't matter as it's a stupid idea anyway. c)Teams in the automatic promotion spots even where the margin for error is applied, should be automatically promoted;

If I understand the proposal, points would be in the following statistical average Coventry (1.97 ppg) High - (1.97 + 0.12411 = 2.09411) Low - (1.97 - 0.107365 = 1.862635) Rotherham (1.771 ppg) High - (1.771 + 0.111573 = 1.882573) Low - (1.771 - 0.0965195 = 1.6744805) Wycombe (1.735 ppg) High...

The 20/21 season for the premier league start date is at the moment pencilled in for 8th August. That is 10 weeks from this coming Saturday. The EFL usually start a week earlier. So the likely time frame is, the end on next week for the votes to be completed, a week to get testing organised, 4...

Just call it underdog, everybody loves them.

Where have the Premier league said there may be no relegation? The BBC news reporter suggested that, but in the interview with Richard Masters that followed, the statement was made that "curtailment was still possible", which is true. Relegation was only mentioned in the statement "scrapping...

I don't think there is any chance ot will be a close vote.

Why? was it a girl?

Exactly. Managers saying they want to play on, and owners doing a turkey-voting-for-Christmas impression are two very different things.

Barton seems to be suggesting they are OK with playoffs, I can't think why Southend would want to play on, they are 17 points from safety with 9 to play, and have won 4 all season. Obviously null & void would be their first preference but that is not on the table. I believe they have long ago...

Exactly, 5 clubs are potentially 1 win away from a single auto slot, that changes the odds slightly.

I still think that some clubs will be saying one thing to the general public, but may vote a different way. It's all about PR. Will we ever find out which way every team voted? and even if we do, they can just say something like, after careful consideration we voted to save other clubs from...

What the EFL haven't said, AFAIK is what penalty will be applied if a team can't complete some or all of their fixtures, assuming a vote for the season to continue. There could well be circumstances where teams will go into administration or even be unable to complete their fixtures in the...

Would Oxford really want to gamble on making top 2 as opposed to a guaranteed play off spot? Bristol Rovers have nothing to gain by completing the season, and may even get sucked into the relegation scrap

So at the moment the Championship has started testing today, with the intention of resumption on 20th June. If the vote goes the way of restarting, I would guess L1 would be up to 2 weeks behind that date by the time it is voted on, and testing could be arranged, and results returned. So...

What did you do to earn a ban that long?

There will be 3 divisions separating us from them by then

I think something like this would possibly come the nearest to being acceptable to every team.

Which is why I think it won't happen
