As I previously stated my main motivation for starting this forum was boredom. With this in mind I've been entertaining myself this afternoon with some number crunching.
Farm have opened up a commanding 11 point lead at this late stage of the season but lots of our rivals have games in hand, so I decided to work out how many points we'd need to be sure of finishing the season as champions.
Top of the list of worries are Buckland Athletic who, if they do the unthinkable and win all of their remaining games they will finish on 99 points. Higher than Street or Melksham's potential highest finishes which are 94 and 93 respectively.
This means we would need 7 wins and a draw from our final 8 games to absolutely guarantee winning the league but would still most likely be fine losing one due to GD.
I'll update this thread as the situation develops because I am a boring nerd.
