With one game to go, we can still finish anywhere between 13th and 19th (Cheltenham play Daggers so we can't catch both of them, and Hartlepool play Exeter so they can't both catch us). What a tight season it's been.
And a season of 3 halves
2 points from first 10 games (0.2 pts per game
), 18 points from the next 8 (2.2. ppg
), 34 from the next 27 (1.2 ppg
). Overall 54 from 45, also 1.2 ppg (averages approximate). The first bit the worst run we've seen, the second bit about as good as it's ever got, though not lasting as long as in the play-off season, and the last bit more or less what we usually do.
If the start had been average, we'd probably just have missed the play-offs, and if the purple patch had been average we would almost certainly have gone down. Made life interesting doing it the way we did ......
