Robith's Relegation Index 09:42 - Oct 3 with 28722 viewsrobith

I think we can all agree that our primary objective this year needs to be first and foremost to stay up. Further it's been say a mixed bag of a season, where even I, the perennial happy clapper was calling for the manager to be sacked after 5 games. I saw a comment in Brian's thread of someone saying "well, they'll just say Reading were crap" and that got me thinking. Yeah people will.

So I've tried to create a basic statistics system to see. Totally based in the numbers we need to post rather than subjective analysis of how games have gone.

So each week I'll post the index of our chance of survival. Indices work by converting separate numbers into a base (which is scored as 100) and working out how more or less likely an outcome is. 120 is the mark for something significantly being likely to happen, 80 is the mark for something being significantly unlikely to happen.

I've set the base for safety at 50 points. Can revise on feedback

So Gameweek 11:

Played: 11/46 - 24% of games played

Points: 13/50 - 26% of points needed

Based on this our current survival index is 109

At this stage we look like staying up, but it's not a sure thing - we're tracking very close to the baseline run rate.

Stay tuned for more exciting stats action as it comes

i find this a bit overcomplicated. isnt the current table itself what you should index against (i.e., QPRs points against the projected points of the 22nd ranked team) rather than an arbitrary baseline?

also, 50 points is not accurate as the staying up point

points required to stay up in the last few years (without having to rely on GD):
2018: 42
2017: 52
2016: 41
2015: 42
2014: 45


Well I asked for feedback in October butt!

Will this be a feature of this seasons matches Robith? I found it quite fascinating, and quite accurate.

It will - I already have the tracker built but was gonna wait until the international break so there was some statistical significance to it

Hi all,

As I had someone ask about it on the game on saturday - sadly I had my bag stolen which had my laptop in it, which had the data sheets I use to make the stuff. Currently my enthusiasm to recreate 3 years of data I'd built is pretty low, so unless my IT team pull it out of the bag I won't be able to update this sadly

Oh no. That's sh!t. I was looking forward to an update. Hope you get your data back, and some insurance for a new laptop.

Bad luck there robith there is really some rotton bastar*s around stealing personal property and IDs these days.Hopefully you can get the laptop replaced free/cheaply first then get all your stats back.
Nobody is hitting the panic button yet but we are sadly famous for long losing streaks which we can hopefully avoid this time around

Sorry to hear that Robith, just wanted to say that this has been a great little feature over the last couple of years and much appreciated.

Quite understand why you can't be ar*ed to rebuild it, but wanted you to know that the original effort wasn't wasted.

I do - it was my work laptop - so it's essentially useless to them, and work gets to claim it back.

Sadly I don't get to claim back my kindle, my darts, my glove and I had to spend £15 getting my annual travelcard (which didn't actually start until the following day!) replaced. Very annoying all told

I am fighting the urge to call the Sjoke or Birmingham games "must win".

Walking away from the game Saturday I just had a sinking feeling that we are in the midst of a Holloway or McClaren-esque type run and that buffer of 12 points could soon be down to a single win and a draw by the time the business end of the season comes around.

I know, I know... many predicted a fight for survival... and I did too until we signed Hugill and Wells and saw the development of Eze and Chair step up a notch. With the attacking riches we had/have all we needed to do was have a bit of steel and have defenders coached to actually defend.

Sadly I feel this squad is as ill equipped to deal with a relegation battle as the ODH one was but then Ollie came in and had a window to add Scowen, Freeman etc. That option not open to us this time.

Interesting few weeks ahead.

All will be well if we are clinical apparently.

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

This thread is starting to become very topical, more's the pity

"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."
