Pitching In Isthmian North Supporters Predictions 26-27— Final Table
You’ve been reading their predictions- now here’s their final verdict!
For the past few weeks you’ve been reading the reviews, previews and predictions of many of our supporters, across all four of our Divisions. You’ve also been seeing their predicted top fives, but what you may not have been aware of- if you’re new to the Pitching In Isthmian League, particularly- is that each of our participants picks not only the top five but an entire one to twenty two for their chosen Division. We take those predictions, add them all together, and then, just before the big kick off, produce a predicted league table for each Division- and often it ends up printed out and stuck on a dressing room wall before three o’clock (yes, we’ve seen the photographic evidence!). Because of last weekend’s FA Cup action, we’ve held over Step Four until this week.
Next up we have our North Division. This is what you think it will look like at the end of the season:
- Felixstowe and Walton United
- Canvey Island
- Cambridge City
- Bowers & Pitsea
- Gorleston
- Hashtag United
- Redbridge
- Wroxham
- Witham Town
- Brightlingsea Regent
- AFC Sudbury
- Concord Rangers
- Walthamstow
- Tilbury
- Newmarket Town
- Grays Athletic
- Lowestoft Town
- Takeley
- Mulbarton Wanderers
- Little Oakley
- Buckhurst Hil
- Fakenham Town
You were so sure that Felixstowe and Walton United would win the title that seventy percent of you put them in first place. Canvey Island were placed a clear second, Cambridge City comfortably third, and then Bowers, Gorleston, the Tags and the Motorman were so close together for the four remaining Play off places that we could barely separate them. Wroxham and Witham, in your opinion, will just miss out on the end of season party.
At the wrong end of the table you suggested that the newly promoted sides would struggle. Indeed, you placed them well adrift of everyone else, which we’re sure they’ll use as motivation to prove you wrong.
We’d like to thank all those who have taken part. Over the next couple of days we’ll be running the South Central and South East predicted tables, and early next week we’ll have announcements about your favourite ground and your favourite food, too.
Now, time to stop guessing, and to start enjoying some actual football!
