I've done a quick analysis of the results between the seven clubs in the playoff picture. Note that Chorley v Bradford is to be played on Saturday.
Bradford. 11 6 2 3 14 11 20
Brackley. 12 5 2 5 21 16 17
Alty. 12 4 4 4 23 24 16
Telford. 12 4 4 4 15 18 16
Blyth. 12 3 6 3 18 18 15
Spennymoor 12 4 3 5 19 22 15
Chorley. 11 3 3 5 18 19 12
It could of course be a case of lies, damned lies, and statistics, but a couple of interesting points are apparent. Since we look likely to be at home to Blyth, we should remember that they haven't lost away to ANY of the teams in this group !
Chorley, on the other hand, have only beaten ourselves and Brackley at Victory Park, and face Bradford on Saturday, who have the best defensive record in the group - they shipped 3 at Brackley, and at home to us, so only 5 in 9 otherwise. Not quite the form book home win it would appear.
Brackley have only won away at Blyth, and very fortunately at Moss Lane, so they'll be relieved that they'll be at home until possibly the final. They're a different prospect at home - we're the only one of the group to have won there.
Still twists and turns in prospect then.
