Well - it had to happen on the most important match.

The table below shows the PTS required to reach the TARGET.
IT DOES NOT assume teams will keep up their CURRENT average points as it is
a table that shows where tams should be NOW to achieve the targets. I will
occasionally adjust the year end targets depending on how close the teams
are and if any one team pulls clear.

Games Played..........21...22..23
.........Target...pts...pts...pts
CHAMPIONS...(90pts)....41...43...45
PROMOTION...(86pts)....39...41...43
PLAYOFF ......(72pts)....33...34...36

So LEEDS on 23 games (as we now stand)
...................Need....Have.......IN HAND
CHAMPIONS..... 45pts....37pts..... 8 pts DOWN
PROMOTION......43pts....37pts..... 6 pts DOWN
PLAYOFF .........36pts....37pts..... 1 pt IN HAND


LEEDS UTD Progressive TREND over last 10 games
Game....14..15..16..17..18..19.20..21..22.23

PROM....-6.-5..-4.-6..-5..-4.-4.-3..-4..-6
P/o......-2..0..+1.-1..+1...+2.+2..+3.+3...+1

Its not looking too good !!

Table below shows the top five teams and how they stand against the targets
of being CHAMPS, PROMOTION and PLAYOFF. A MINUS figure shows many points the
team is DOWN on the target and a PLUS shows how many points they have IN
HAND.
