Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "I am speaking from the viewpoint that if we end up in the MPG then it will be a SL club and I've not seen any that we might remotely hope to beat.
Whereas to finish 3rd well, of course it goes without saying that WE first and foremost would need to do our bit, but the thing is, it doesn't just depend on us, it depends on the results of the other clubs too, and they can't all win all their games. '"
The problem with that though is that more often than not, to finish 3rd we're probably going to have to beat a SL team along the way aren't we? Tough ask to finish 3rd with just 6 points, would have to be a bizzare set of results for that to happen? I'd have thought there was more chance of a Championship team winning the MPG (again long odds I agree). With finishing third you are banking on two SL clubs having stinkers and finishing below us and presumably losing to at least one championship team on the way. I'll admit you are better at this stuff than me, but seems unlikely
