We all know that usually the team that comes up from a lower league is odds on to go back down. Yes we are doing well and mid to top table looks achievable. Honestly though I'd be happy with some stability and looking at promotion in the next year or two.

So we have 16 points, how safe are we? I think just the bottom team relagated this season, which is currently Rochdale with 2 points. Anyone know the figures if we are secure. Seems silly to ask but you never know in this game.

For me yes Bradford are safe , the bottom 3 this season will be Barrow, Swinton, the Rochdale , who are the weakest team in the Championship.
I think the race for the top 5 this season will be very close after Toronto and Toulouse, could even go on points difference, my top 5 are .

Toronto,
Toulouse.
Bradford.
Leigh.
Fev. In this order.

I calculated the results of all remaining fixtures of all clubs, making the assumption that we never win another game, every result in every game went against us, that wherever possible no team above us beats a team below us.

There would be other possible permutations because as the season goes on the definition of one team being "below" or "above" another changes, but overall, the worst case scenario final league table would look something like this:

Fev 36
Halifax 36
Dewsbury 29
Batley 28
Toronto 26
Leigh 26
Toulouse 24
York 24
Widnes 24
Swinton 24
Rochdale 24
Sheffield 22
Barrow 21
Bradford 16

So I think we need 3 more wins to be mathematically safe. But the combination of results that would be needed for us to need 3 more wins is so bizarre, I think a Brexit by noon tomorrow is more likely. So not mathematically, but for all practical purposes, we are I conclude safe.

You haven't accounted for an unlikely administration scenario!
