    The Alternative Premier League Table 2015-16
    « on: July 23, 2015, 10:18:05 PM »

    The Alternative Premier League Table 2015-16

    This is a continuation of the last four APLT threads which ran over the last three seasons and can be found here:
    2011-12 http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=278916.
    2012-13 http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=296309.0
    2013-14http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=306705.0
    2014-15http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=315567.0

    For those of you who are new to the APLT, or those who need a reminder of the model, the APLT makes an assumption that in order to win the league title, a team needs to win 90 points for the season. This can be achieved by winning all home matches, the seven ‘easiest’ away matches (the three promoted teams and the 14th-17th ranked teams from the previous season) and draw the 12 remaining away matches. I refer to these as the ‘par results’. As in golf, par will be achieved more often than not, but sometimes points are dropped or gained in relation to par.

    The fixture list below for the top seven teams from last season indicates the ‘hardest’ matches which are all par 1s, with the remaining fixtures all par 3s.

    Over the season, I will plot the results in relation to par for all the teams featured on a graph (an example of last season’s completed graph is below). If a team plays to par, the line on the graph will be horizontal, whereas dropped points will lead to a negative gradient and gained points a positive gradient.

    please log in to view this image


    The green depreciating line reflects a drop of 0.5 points per game (dropping to 19 points below par by game 38) to illustrate a 71 point season, a reasonable estimation of the points needed to achieve a top four finish. Any team with ambitions to finish top four needs to be above this green line by the end of the season.

    I’ll do my best to keep this up-to-date as best as possible as the season progresses and I hope it illustrates the impact of results on our season.

    I'll also try to send a tweet when I do an update @RawkProf



    This excellent post from Nessy is well worth reading if you are new to this....

    Now have another, stronger drink and try to comprehend what the **** just happened because, its happened... That just happened!!!!

    Seems logical to be fair, puts the league table in comparison to sides you've played and difficulty of the game <ok>

    There is only one league table that matters. The alternative tables that are created (every year) are cringeworthy and embarrassing. It is what it is, don't try to argue green is orange FFS <doh>

    Yes but the one that matters only matters after 38 games have been played

    So in the meantime if you care to follow your team week to week it's interesting to have something that gives a better indicator of your progess compared with rivals, i.e. not Leicester playing CL football
