Loonytoons Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 2 for 6 now. Brechin the obvious losers on the OP's original forecast, Forfar the big winners with 4 points from the expected 0, Cowden also up on the prediction. Stenny are now officially back in the broon stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikedafc Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Stenhousemuir could have been all but safe had they held on at Airdrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albino Rover Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 The Rovers are now safe to spectate as the drama unfolds below us. In order to make sure we're not the ones to relegate Cowden, Forfar or Stenny, I think we should be indiscriminate and just beat all three.

Mathematically you can still be caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 We're theoretically, arithmetically, mathematically safe from 10th but yes, we could finish 9th if we lost every game and either Forfar or Brechin won every game. AKA safe. (^^^ famous last words ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Unlikely I know... Cowden continue their winning streak (as predicted by Sir Colin). Stranraer face us and Brechin next - not outwith the bounds of possibility to lose both. If Airdrie and Albion Rovers don't pick up many points then there could be an interesting last day at Stair Park in a winner takes all battle for 4th place. It's still on...

big al Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 It's still on...We can even afford Stranraer to draw 1 of their 2 games. If we can somehow beat Albion this sat then it's very on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 If this happens I'll pay for your season ticket next year. On a better pitch, Brechin can beat Stranraer. We can bring in BRE, Cardle and Faissal - and beat Stranraer. Nish can keep doing whatever the f**k goes through his head and you can keep scraping wins. As a sequence of results it's unlikely but in the old one game at a time cliche there's nothing that amazing required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecowden Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 It's still on...It is so unlikely. It would be absolutely hilarious if it did happen. Also ridiculously undeserved. Safety would be enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no fairer way of judging teams than points earned over the course of a season.No they aren't. The principle is sound but over the course of the season teams will take points in games they don't merit it and vice versa drop points they don't merit. Yesterday we stole 3 points, not for the first time this season. One of the games was when we beat you 1-0 early doors in a game that a draw would have been fair.

League table doesn't lieI'll go back to the example of when we beat Albion 1-0. They had a goal chalked off for offside. After watching the replays I don't recall a single Cowden fan thinking that goal should have been disallowed therefore our 3 points wasn't deserved.You're making a very simplistic argument that doesn't stack up.
