Magic Number Thread 25/26

[From Despair To Where?]

Just a bit of silliness really.

For the title

Cardiff can get 108 points so the magic number is 109-48 = 61

For Automatic

Lincoln can get 107 points so the magic number is 108-48 =60

Play offs

Stevenage can get 90pts so magic number is 91 - 48 = 43

To stay up

Wigan can get 76 points so 77-48 = 29

Unironically love the magic number thread.

Cardiff are playing Lincoln next week so they can`t both finish on those points.

I know that but with 13 games to go, bollocks to working out all the head to head permutations. Will it affect the magic number for the title or for automatic or both? We don't know so let the magic number do it's magic in good time.

If there's pertinent head to heads with 5 games to go, by all means factor then in.

Good job FDTW. Love me a Magic Number Thread.

How many times do you think we'll have to explain it this year?

[From Despair To Where?]

Well, Paul no longer posts so less than usual.

As you update, would you be kind enough to include maximum available points for reference please... to help track how close each is to being in our hands.

108
107
90
73

Our maximum available is 87

Obviously automatic is a pipe dream but I'll include it until it's not mathematically possible.

We still have to play Stevenage so the play offs are actually currently in our own hands, goal difference permitting

IN! for performatively failing to understand the concept (and somehow thinking you won't look a prick doing so)

[Puts on nasal voice] um, actually we don't need 73 points to stay up, no one has ever been relegated with more than 55, I think you'll find.[end voice]

Sigh.

My favourite was "The only magic number you need is 4 wins and we'll stay up".

We got 3 and we're relegated by 5 points.
