ShaunO1 141 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 If the season is cancelled (and I don't think it will be) and the league used a points per game average like they did in league 1 and 2 as things stand would we stay up? We have earned 22 points points form 22 games so 1. 00 ppg. Leaving us above Qpr who are on 0.95 But the table says we have 16 points giving us 0.73 points per game and if this was the the case we would be relagated. Link to post Share on other sites

So that would leave us on 40 points. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I think that's the only fair way to calculate it, and I assume this is what would happen. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

LondonOwl313 2,184 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 We would be in 21st as things stand. Wycombe bottom, Rotherham 2 points behind us and we’d be level on points with Forest but above them on goal difference. Can’t remember what they agreed re the protocols were if the season was abandoned. Pretty sure the clubs voted on it and at least half the season had to have been played Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't put it past the EFL not to have a contingency plan for this in place at all. Imagine how pissed off Charlton fans would be if we stayed up on a technicality Link to post Share on other sites
Sheff74 584 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Isn't there an agreement that at least half of the games need to be played, before the ppg ratio can be used? Thought there was but could be wrong. Sure that the PL had agreed something like this. Link to post Share on other sites

WUGGAMONKEY1 133 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 I think they would have to: 1. Calculate our points per game based on actual points won; and 2. Apply the points deduction proportionately too. By my maths, we win tonight & we can campaign for the season to be scrapped! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Because as of tonight we would be half way there but it'll take Rotherham till. The end of January to get to 23 games Link to post Share on other sites

As six point deduction is for a 46 game season so if it ends on 23 do we get a 3 point deduction? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

theowlsman 40,478 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 The rules mean nothing. The EFL will find a way to send us down one way or another. Bent as. Link to post Share on other sites
Triple O 1,170 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Think we would take it to arbitration again if we were to be relegated due to a points reduction in a season decided on points per game. Link to post Share on other sites

PPG was used to decide the National League North promotion places last season - it’s how Kings Lynn Town ended up winning promotion to the National League im not sure I’ve seen PPG used where relegation is concerned though Link to post Share on other sites
